    I have not changed any of these (including the 06,09,07,10

    I should be safe leaving them at Factory, except for PD120. If left at 0 that would disable stall protection. So that I would change to 100.

    Does that sound workable?
    Some of the different models has some slight differences in there manuals

    Correct PD120=100

    Factory Defaults are for a 50Hz or 60Hz Ac motors, they do still work but are not what your 400Hz spindle should have

    I cant find anything more than this on the spindle.

    Voltage 220
    Current 10amp
    Phase 3
    Frequency 0-400Hz
    Speed 0-24000rpm
    Collet ER20
    Bearing Ceramic

    Where / what more should I be looking for?

    Mactec54,

    Any more thought on what

    PD006=
    PD009=

    PD007=
    PD010=

    should be for a 2.2 air cooled spindle?

    They did not have a recommended min speed. I currently have it set to 6000 (100Hz)

    That is normally to slow for air cooled spindle so you will have to try it and see if it over heats at that speed some have to be as high as 150Hz to keep them cool enough it will depend how efferent the fan is at low speeds

    Even though I have run it at 6000 for up to 30 minutes without it getting warm (just breaking it in), I don't really need that low a speed except for occasional drilling. I could adjust my settings to 120Hz (7200) easy enough.

    I've changed my VFD to 120 for minimum speed. Any more input for
    PD006=
    PD009=

    PD007=
    PD010=

    Now?
