POWER TOOLS
STARTING/STOPPING THE DRILL
The ON/OFF switches are located on the left side
of the machine (Fig.42) and are indicated by
O
the green button for ON and on the red
button for OFF.
CHANGING THE SPINDLE SPEED
(Fig.43 - 47)
Unscrew the cross head screw securing the
pulley guard casing. Lift open the casing to
reveal the pulley system. Determine the spindle
speed required (Fig.49) opposite. Identify the
pulley arrangement that gives the nearest
spindle speed to that required by referring to the
drill pulley configurations (Fig.47 - 48).
Slacken the two wing nuts located one on each
side of the Drill head casting (Fig.42 & 44). This
will release the tension on the drive belt.
The motor, situated at the rear of the machine
can now slide on the two slide bars. Push it
towards the front to enable belts to be removed
and re-positioned to achieve your required speed
setting.
To move the drive belts to the desired pulley
arrangement, push the belt on the largest drive
spindle pulley towards the next smallest pulley
and at the same time rotate the drive spindle by
hand until the drive belt locates onto the next
smallest pulley (be careful not to trap your
fingers between the belt and pulley). Repeat this
procedure on the jockey pulley and the motor
pulley until the desired pulley arrangement has
been achieved.
BELT TENSION
When the desired pulley arrangement has been
achieved, tension the drive belt by inserting a
large screwdriver or small pry bar between the
the drill head casting and the motor mounting
(Fig.45). Lever the motor mount away from the
casting and tighten the wing nuts. To check that
the correct tension has been achieved, press
your finger onto the centre of the drive belt
(Fig.46). The drive belt should move
approximately 13mm. Once this has been
achieved, re-tighten the two wing nuts to lock the
motor slide bars in position.
