REMOVING THE CHUCK
1. Turn the lower feed handles to
lower the chuck to its lowest
position.
2. Insert a tapered drift key into the
corresponding slot in the quill
assembly and tap sharply with a
mallet to release the tapered
chuck arbor.
3. Take care to catch the chuck and
arbor as it falls.
BELT TENSIONING
1.
Slacken the two belt tension
locking screws (A Fig 9),
then lever
the motor, on its bracket, away
from the head, so that tension is
applied to the belt.
2. Tension is correct when the belt
deflects by approx. ½” at the
centre of its run when using
reasonable thumb pressure. Lock
the motor in this position by
tightening the two locking screws
(A).
NOTE:
If the belt should slip whilst drilling, adjust the belt tension.
CHECKING THE OPERATION OF THE MICROSWITCH
When closing the cover, check the operation of the micro-switch. It is
important that it operates immediately the cover is pulled open, in order to
prevent the machine from operating........NOT when the cover is opened
sufficiently for fingers to be inserted. If necessary, bend the actuating tab,
which is attached to the cover, to ensure this.
