WORK HOLDING
When drilling directly on the table surface it is recommended that a piece of wood or plywood be
clamped securely to the table under the work piece. This will minimize splintering or burring as
the drill breaks through the work. It will minimize drill bit and table damage. Clamp work piece to
the table whenever possible. The table has “T-slots” that allow for many different clamping
configurations. When part cannot be affixed to the table a drill vise that is bolted to the table
must be used to hold the work piece safely.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
1. The speed can be changed using the spindle speed dial to achieve variable speeds
without having to change the belt position. Only do this when machine is running.
a. However, if the desired speed can not be achieved in the current belt position it
will need to be changed. Refer to the “Speed Adjustment Guide” next in this
manual for belt position speeds.
2.
Make sure the machine has come to a complete stop and turn power
off before adjusting speed via drive belt.
3. Open the pulley cover to expose the pulleys and drive belts.
4. Loosen the tension lock handles.
5. Choose the proper speed for drilling operation, “Speed Adjustment Guide”, next in this
manual.
6. Move belt to the correct step pulleys for desired speed.
7. Push the motor backwards until proper blade tension is applied, about 1/2" of deflection,
see illustration below.
8. Retighten belt tension lock handle.
Note: If center pulley bracket does not move freely loosen spring loaded bolts 1/2 to 3/4 of a
turn.
