Speed Changes

The Model W1669 and W1670 Radial Drill Press has 5 speeds ranging from 550 to 3470 RPM. To find your needed drilling speed and pulley combination, refer to the speed chart located under the belt guard; or go to Page 22 and refer to the Drill Press RPM Chart.

UNPLUG the drill press before changing speeds to avoid accidental start up. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

To change the drilling speed, do these steps:

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Loosen the belt tension lock knobs on the side of the headstock (see Figure 35).

3.Locate the desired speed on the chart and move the V-belt to the desired V-grooves on the motor and spindle pulleys (see

Figure 36).

4.Push the motor inward, and move the V- belt to the right spot.

5.Push the motor toward the back of the headstock. The motor support rod is spring loaded and will follow the motor. Tighten the lock knob when the right tension is achieved.

6.Close the cover.

Never operate drill press with belt cover in the open position. Your hand may become trapped in a belt and serious personal injury will occur.
