The drill press is equipped with an adjustable depth stop, enabling users to set the maximum drilling depth for consistent results across multiple holes.

The construction of the B13F is another highlight, with a sturdy cast iron base that provides stability during operation. This solid foundation minimizes vibrations, contributing to a smoother drilling experience and enhancing the overall accuracy of the tool. The height-adjustable work table also adds flexibility, allowing users to accommodate various workpiece sizes effortlessly.

Moreover, safety features such as the emergency stop switch and a built-in work light further enhance the usability of the Hitachi B13F, ensuring that operators can work efficiently while prioritizing safety.
