SPINDLE SPEEDS (Fig. 13)
This drill press offers 5 spindle speeds from 620 to 3070 RPM. The highest speed is obtained when
the belt is positioned on the largest motor pulley step and the smallest spindle pulley stop.
ADJUST SPEEDS AND TENSION THE BELT
(Fig. 14)
1. Open the drill press pulley cover (1).
2. Loosen the belt tension knobs (2) on both sides of
the drill press head.
3. Pull the motor (3) towards the drill press head.
4. Set the belt on the desired steps of the motor (4)
and spindle (5) pulleys according to the belt positions
on the spindle speed chart (Fig. 13).
5. Pull the motor away from the drill press head to
increase the belt tension. Tighten the tension knobs
(2).
6. The belt (4) should be tight enough to prevent
slippage. Correct tension is set if the belt flexes about
1/2" (13 mm) when thumb pressure is applied at the
midpoint of the belt between the pulleys.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, keep pulley cover in place and in proper working order
when operating.
