10. To switch OFF, hit the switch cover, which will push the RED ‘O’ button,
turning the machine OFF.
Caution: FEEDING TOO RAPIDLY might stop the motor, cause the belt to
slip, force the workpiece loose, or break the drill bit. Practice with
scrap material to get the feel of the machine before attempting
any drilling operation.
NOTES:
a. As a safety feature, the ON/OFF switch is a No-Volt Release type.
Therefore, if the power is interrupted whilst the machine is switched ON, it
will not automatically start when the power is restored.
b. A microswitch is provided within the pulley cover, which prevents the
machine from operating unless the pulley cover is firmly closed.
c. A light is also provided which is built into the head. The lightswitch is
located on the front panel, directly below the ON/OFF switch.
TO ADJUST DRILLING DEPTH
SPINDLE DEPTH SCALE METHOD
1. With the power OFF, lower the drill bit so that it contacts the work and hold
in that position.
2. Slacken off the locking screw and turn the collar so that the measurement
for the depth of hole required is in line with the pointer. Lock the collar in
this position using the locking screw.
The drill is now set to drill holes to your pre-determined depth, from that
particular start point.

WORKPIECE METHOD
1. Mark the desired depth of the drill hole on the side of the workpiece.
2. With the machine not running, bring the drill bit down until the tip is level
with the mark.
3. Holding the feed handles at this position and lock the collar in position
using the locking screw. The chuck and the drill bit will now be stopped at
