Follow the aluminum cut charts in your operators manual, if you have to change anything...only change the speed. There are many different alloys called "brass". Most commonly you may have to cut a bit slower, however if too much dross is present start inching your speed up 5 ipm at a time, eventually you will get to the dross free speed zone.
