Drill Press RPM Chart

Use Figure 35 to select the optimum motor-to-spindle pulley ratio for drilling, cutting, and sanding operations. The belt setting in the example in Figure 36 shows the spindle belt in the #1 spindle pulley position and the motor belt in the #7 motor pulley location. This will produce a speed of 1,870 RPM. Refer to the Drill, Cutter, and Saw RPM Chart on Page 21 for suggested tool RPMs.

ADJUSTMENTS

Drilling Depth

Your new drill press comes fitted with a depth stop that allows drilling holes at a preset depth.

NOTICE

BACK-OFF the depth stop completely and secure the stop nuts before using the oscillat- ing feature. If the depth stop is left adjusted for a shallow hole, or the nuts rattle down to the stop while in operation, the depth stop will bottom out and break the oscillator.

To adjust the drilling depth, do these steps:

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Rotate the oscillator pulley until the depth stop reads “0” (see Figure 37).

3.Loosen the jam nut on the depth stop rod (see Figure 38).

4.Turn the stop nut to the desired depth as indicated by the depth stop scale (see Figure

38).

5.Tighten the jam nut against the stop nut while making sure the stop nut stays in position.

6.To make sure the depth has been set correct- ly, drill a hole into scrap stock before drilling into any workpiece, and readjust the depth stop if necessary.
