I finally received my brand new King Industrial 14", Assembling went great and everything seems to be really well done.
There's 3 speed on that saw 735, 1470 and 2350 RPM. In the manual, no blade speed. I guess the speed will depend on the type of wood and the blade width. I've googled around and didn't find an answer for my question. So, is there a rule of thumb on which I can base my speed settings ?
Metal slower, wood faster.
735 = most metal 1470 = aluminum or plastic 2350 = wood or styrofoam
My question relates to wood. So the harder the wood the slower the blade I guess.

No. Run it at the highest speed for ALL wood. Slow for metal as another poster told you.

funny enough, it's written RPM in the operation manual... damned translation from taiwanese to english....
