4.5.2 Speed change

ATTENTION!
A change of the speed while the drilling spindle is stopped results in damages of the var-
iable speed gear. Only change the speed while the drilling spindle is turning.
The drilling-machine is equipped with a
motor with an infinitely variable
mechanic gear. The V-belt of the
infinitely variable V-belt gear is posi-
tioned at the desired V-belt diameter
using the handwheel (10) while the drill-
ing spindle is turning. Thus the speed is
changed. The lower the spindle speed
while adjusting, the more difficult it is to
turn the handwheel.
