Drilling Depth; Spindle Return Spring - Craftex CX614 User Manual

DRILLING DEPTH

Your drill press has been equipped with a
new type depth adjustment. To set the
depth stop, loosen the depth locking nuts
and rotate them to the desired depth as
indicated on the scale.

SPINDLE RETURN SPRING

The spindle is equipped with an auto-return
mechanism. The main components of
which are a spring and a notched chrome
housing. The spring was properly adjusted
at the factory and should not be readjusted
unless absolutely necessary. If required,
proceed as follows:
Disconnect the cord from the power source.
Loosen the two housing nuts (1)
approximately 1/4".
Firmly hold the spring housing (2) and pull it
out so it clears the raised notch (3).
Turn it until the next notch is engaged with
the boss. To increase the tension, turn it
clockwise and counter-clockwise to
decrease the tension.
Tighten the two nuts.
Do not over-tighten the nuts, as it will make
the spindle handle sluggish.
