Hi all. I purchased the variable speed Milwaukee router 5616-20. I think its a great router but have a question about the variable speed that even Milwaukee tech support couldn't answer for me.
The speed goes from 10,000rpm to 2,000rpm and the speed dial goes from 1 to 7 but that's where the correlation ends. I can assume that 1=10,000rpm and 7=24,000rpm but what if I want
to run a bit at 17.000rpm ? Where would I set the dial ? Milwaukee wasn't able to tell me if the dial had a linear relationship to the speed ? Does anyone have any ideas ? Thanks for your help
