Sir,

You should contact Sid or Keri at Little Giant even though they deal in Little Giants they can give you useful information on your hammer. I also know for a fact they have springs available.

I think you want the machine to hit a certain number of "blows per minute" and adjust the pulleys and belts to achieve that A 1 hp motor is a 1 hp motor. My hammer hits about 220 BPM.
