All of your Routing and Shaping operations will
be more efficient than ever with the Shopsmith
Speed Increaser on your team.
Designed for use with all MARK V Models,
the Speed Increaser will deliver a full 10,000
rpms at your MARK V’s “V” Speed Dial Setting.
As a result, you’ll have to make fewer passes
with your stock (especially when cutting full pro-
files) plus ... spend a lot less time sanding.
The Increaser’s under-table design also
provides another advantage by allowing you to
perform table Routing and Shaping operations
in a more conventional fashion ... with the bit
cutting from under the workpiece.
The special see-through Speed Increaser
Shield (included) hooks up to your Shopsmith
DC3300 Dust Collector See Page 23 or a shop
vacuum and does an amazing job of capturing
flying dust and debris.
Includes Speed Increaser; Shield; 1/2˝ Shaper
Spindle with four sizes of (non-bearing) Shaper
Rub Collars (555463); and all mounting hardware
for Increaser and Shield.
