143 7/8 horsepower. If you go as low as 143 3/4, you will not be able to
produce any serious work whatsoever.
Seriously, I have a 1 horse saw. I have ripped 2 inch thick liptus using a
combo blade. Had to be careful about feed rate but didn't have any problem
with it. More power would be nice but this works.


That's sounds alright and workin, but how does one find_out the exact horse power of a motor?
