Operation
SCANTOOL 30 and 40 drilling machines have many possibilities for adjustment and operation,
which will be described below. At first there is a description of the functions which are the
same for all models and later there is a description of the optional accessories.
Before the operation begins the table (1) (see fig. 6.1) is adjusted to the wanted working
height, by loosening the knob at the back of the column, and then the table height can be
adjusted by turning the large handle (2) at the side of the column. Remember to retighten the
knob at the back of the column. The table can also be turned horizontally by loosening the
knob (3) underneath the table. Then the work piece can be fastened to the table.
The spindle speed is set by the gear levers (4) on the left-hand side of the machine and with
the switch (5) below the ON/OFF buttons (6). At the front cover (7) is shown what adjustment
the gear and the switch must have to obtain the wanted spindle speed.
