Default motor speed

HP has nothing to do with RPM. There are only a few different motor speeds(1750 & 3450 that I can think of right now) but lots of different HP ratings. Higher HP means it will take more load to slow it down. If you need higher speed you need to use a bench mandrel with different size pulleys on the motor shaft and spindle.
