I just got my hands on a Czech made bandsaw (so English language documentation is rather scarce), a Proma PP-312 in case anyone is interested. It is in need of some maintenance and repair, but that won’t be an issue.
It has two speed settings, which you switch between by changing the drive belt/pulleys. It has two speeds, 360m/min and 780m/min. My question is (to those that have more than a single speed bandsaw), do you switch speed often (at all)? Which speed is your normal default, low speed or high speed?
