DRILL STAND

Drill stand
Maintenance
The drill stand requires minimal maintenance. However, it is essen-
tial that the stand is kept clean for proper operation. It is particu-
larly important that the rack and pinion is free from pollutants
and that the set and locking screws are clean and lubricated. The
machine bracket must also be thoroughly cleaned and carefully
inspected for damage and screw connections.
Feeder housing
It must be possible to move the feeder housing without any
glitches or inertia along the entire column length. The feeder
housing has four rollers which abut against the column, two of the
rollers are adjustable in relation to the column. After a period of
use, the roller's abutment to the column needs to be adjusted, as
described in this chapter.
Adjustment
Rollers
Note that only the rollers on one side are to be adjusted. These
have an eccentric shaft with screwdriver grooves that change the
contact to the column when turning. The rollers are symmetrical
and identical in design.
Remove the panels
The panels at the top and bottom of the feeder housing are
removed to access the stop screws to the roller shafts.
The illustration below shows the stop screw placement under-
neath. The stop screw on the top side has the corresponding
placement.
