Good question, I don't know, I switched it on and tried the VS I just assumed it was 1000. I put put it on the lathe and set the lathe to 1000 and it does look faster than 1000rpm. I have no way of telling how fasr it is except it is faster than 1500rpm the fastest I can set the lathe without changing the belt so maybe it is 3000, what price was the rutlands machine? and was it also upto 10,000rpm.
