Operation

This machine is largely self-documenting.

Speed Selection

Do-all speed calculator
Blade sizes and speed settings are found with this tool bequeathed to us by our ancestors.

The machine is usually set to cut mild steel, for other materials it may be necessary to change the blade speed.

  • The first step is to find what speed is needed.

The Do-All has this calculator so that all can do all they can do with the Do-All.

  • Next the user checks the blade speed with the machine running.
Do-all speed indicator
Feet per minute. Note only the SLOW speed range is available.
