▪
If the drill jams into the work piece an unsecured machine vice will spin out of control
causing the drill to snap and possibly injure the operator (Fig. 11).
8.2
Using the 3 jaw chuck (Fig. 12)
▪
Select the drill bit required.
▪
Open the jaws and insert the drill shank centrally into the chuck (9).
▪
Rotate the chuck (9) by hand until the jaws grip the drill bit.
▪
The chuck (9) has three holes around the chuck body. Locate the chuck key and using an
even torque move from each hole location until all three holes have been covered.
Continue with the steady torque until tight.
▪
Do not over tighten otherwise you will have difficulty removing the drill bit (Fig. 12).
▪
NOTE: remove the chuck key before use.
▪
Different drill bits and chisels can be used with this product depending on the workpiece
material and application required.
8.3
Switching on and off (Fig. 13)
▪
This machine is fitted with a “No Volts Switch”. In the event of a mains power failure or if
the mains plug is removed from the mains supply socket before the machine is switched
off. The machine will not restart without warning when the mains supply is restored or the
mains plug is reconnected to the mains supply, until the machine is switched ON at the
ON//OFF switch (11) fitted to the machine.
▪
To start the machine press the green ON button.
▪
To stop the machine, press the red OFF button (Fig. 13).
8.4
Feed depth adjustment (Fig. 14)
▪
This facility is useful if a number of uniform depth holes are required in a work piece.
▪
Set the work piece to be drilled in your machine vice.
▪
Insert the drill required into the chuck (9). Bring the drill bit into contact with the work
surface.
▪
Using the depth stop nuts and the depth scale, set the depth of hole required, secure the
depth stop nuts. The drill will stop at the required depth every time (Fig. 14).
▪
NOTE: always stop feeding while the depth stop nuts stops, otherwise the red plastic
collar might be damaged.
8.5
Changing the spindle speed (Fig. 15)
▪
Warning: always ensure that the tool is switched off and unplugged from the power supply
before making any adjustments or changing a drill bit.
▪
Unscrew the cross head screw (13) securing the pulley guard (1) and lift open the pulley
guard (1) to expose the pulley system.
▪
Determine the spindle speed required.
▪
Identify the pulley arrangement that gives the nearest spindle speed to that required by
referring to the drill speed chart (Fig. 15).
