Refer to Figures 4 and 6.
WARNING:
Be sure drill press is turned off and is disconnected

To change spindle speed, loosen motor tension rod (Ref. No. 49)
and set screw of idler pulley (Ref. No. 46). Pivot the motor
toward front of drill press and twist idler pulley (Ref. No. 5) to
loosen front belt. This will permit relocating the belts to the
desired pulley groove for the required spindle speed (See
Figure 4).

move motor toward rear of drill press and tighten motor ten-
sion rod.

Check belt for proper tension and make any final adjustment
(Ref. Nos. 50 and 51). A belt is properly tensioned when light
pressure applied to midpoint of the belt produces about 1/2”
deflection.
