One neat way to slow down a machine like yours is to go get a used
gearmotor, one that goes a lot slower than your current motor. Install
that motor below or farther away from the saw pulley than the current
motor. Get the proper belt. Then just change belt and engergize the
appropriate motor for the speed you need to run.
