large drill bit in the chuck, place a set-square on the table, and bring it up to
the drill. Adjust the table if necessary, so that it is perfectly level.
SPINDLE DEPTH STOP
Located on the spindle feed shaft is a
depth stop collar, displaying a
graduated scale (A, in Fig.15). The
collar can rotate around the shaft
and may be locked in place by the
locking knob B. The graduations
represent the hole depth in mm.
To set a drilling depth:
1. With the drill bit installed, lower it
with the power off, so that it lightly
touches the workpiece.
2. Hold in that position while slackening the locking knob (B) and rotating the
scale (A) ANTICLOCKWISE until it stops with the zero mark opposite the
pointer (C).
3. Tighten the knob and allow the mechanism to return to its starting position.
4. Note the reading on the scale. This will be the measured distance of the
drill bit from the workpiece.
5. Decide on the depth of hole required and add this (in mm), to the value on
the scale. Re-tighten the knob.
• e.g. If the drill was 27 mm from the workpiece and you require a 10
mm deep hole, slacken the knob and turn the scale to read 37 mm.
6. The drill is now set to drill holes to your desired depth. Providing your
workpiece is level and flat, you may drill a series of holes, each to the same
depth, quickly and accurately.
CHANGING THE SPEED
Before changing the speeds, ensure
the drill press is switched OFF and
disconnected from the power supply.
1. Open the pulley cover & slacken
off the belt tension locking knob
to relieve drive belt tension.
2. Consult the chart inside the pulley
cover or the table on page 15
and position the belts on the
pulleys according to the drilling
speed required.
