Turning On and Off
Note:
The pulley cover is fitted with a
safety switch and must be closed to
operate the drill press.
1. Switch the drill press on by pressing
the green (I) button on the switch.
2. Switch the drill press off by pressing
the red (O) button on the switch.
3. Secure your workpiece to the table
if possible, use a vice or clamps (not
supplied).
Operating the drill press
1. Ensure the drill press is switched off
and disconnected from the power
supply.
2. Loosen the jaws of the 13mm keyed
chuck with the chuck key by turning in
an anti-clockwise direction and insert
the selected drill bit into the 13mm
keyed chuck as far as it will go.
3. Ensure that the drill bit is centred in
the 13mm keyed chuck and tighten
the chuck jaws with the chuck key in
a clockwise direction. Tighten all three
holes to ensure the drill bit is secured
evenly by each jaw.
4. Select your drilling depth and secure the
depth indicator lock nuts in position.

4. SPEED ADJUSTMENTS
OPERATION
Changing the speed
The speed of the drill
press can be changed by
adjusting the belt on the
pulley system.
Using a smaller pulley
on the spindle/chuck
increases the drill speed.
Using a larger pulley
on the spindle/chuck
decreases the drill speed.
1. Loosen the belt tension knob
2. Push the motor towards the
head assembly and tighten
the belt tension knob.
3. To adjust the belt speed,
move the belt to the correct
pulley step for the speed
required.
To select a faster drill
speed, move the belt up
to a smaller step on the
spindle/chuck pulley.
To select a slower drill speed move the belt down to a larger
step on the spindle/chuck pulley.
When moving the belt, it is easier to place the belt onto
the small pulley first and then turn it onto the larger pulley.
4. To apply tension to the belt once it has
been fitted to a new speed setting, loosen
the belt tension knob. The belt tension will
automatically tension the belt to the correct
tension, then re-tighten the belt tension
knob.
