3. The table can be tilted right or left by pulling out
and removing table alignment pin (C) Fig. 22. NOTE: If
pin (C) is difficult to remove, turn nut (E) clockwise to
pull pin out of casting.
4. Fig. 23, illustrates the table alignment pin (C)
removed. Loosen table locking bolt (D), tilt table to the
desired angle and tighten bolt (D). When returning table
to the level position, replace table alignment pin (C).
This will position the table surface at 90 degrees to the
spindle.
5. A tilt scale (E) Fig. 24, is provided on the table
bracket casting to indicate the degree of tilt. A witness
line and zero mark (F) are also provided on the table to
line up with the scale (E).

SPINDLE SPEEDS

Five spindle speeds of 620, 1100, 1720, 2340 and 3100
RPM are available with your drill press. Fig. 25,
illustrates which step on the motor and spindle pulleys
the belt must be placed on to obtain the five speeds
available.
CHANGING SPEEDS AND ADJUSTING BELT
TENSION
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Lift up the belt and pulley guard (A) Fig. 26.
3. Release belt tension by loosening tension lock knob
(B) Fig. 26, and pivoting the motor (D) toward the front
of the drill press.
4. While holding the motor toward the front of the drill
press, position the belt (C) on the desired steps of the
motor and spindle pulleys, as shown in Fig. 26.
5. After the belt is positioned on the desired steps of
the motor and spindle pulleys, move motor (D) Fig. 26,
to the rear until the belt is properly tensioned and
tighten tension lock knob (B). The belt should be just
tight enough to prevent slipping. Excessive tension will
reduce the life of the belt, pulleys and bearings. Correct
tension is obtained when the belt (C) can be flexed
about 1in. out of line midway between the pulleys using
light finger pressure.
