Drill Press RPM Chart

Use Figure 37 to select the optimum motor-to-spindle pulley ratio for drilling, cutting, and sanding operations. for example the above figure shows the belt in the C position on the spindle pulley and the #3 position on the motor pulley, which will give a speed of 1,520 RPM. Refer to the Drill, Cutter, and Saw RPM Chart on Page 23 for suggested tool RPMs.

OPERATIONS

Drilling Depth

Your new drill press comes fitted with a depth stop that allows drilling many holes at a pre- set depth consistently. When the hex nuts are set, the nuts will contact the stop flange and stop the drill press from drilling any deeper.

To adjust the drilling depth, do these steps:

1.Measure the maximum depth that you want to drill a series of holes at. In this example the maximum depth is 1 14" deep.

2.Loosen the hex nuts shown on the depth stop and align the lower nut to the 1 14" mark on the depth stop rod (see Figure 38).

3.Hold the lower hex nut and tighten the upper hex nut so both nuts are locked together.

4.Make sure the depth has been set cor- rectly, measure, or drill a hole into scrap wood before drilling into any workpiece.
