QUILL RETURN SPRING (FIG. Q)
The quill return spring may need adjustment if the quill
return speed is too rapid or too slow. This spring is
located on the left side of the drill head.
1. Lower the table for additional clearance.
2. Place a screwdriver in the lower front notch (1) of the
spring cap (2). Hold it in place while loosening and
removing only the outer jam nut (3), using a 10 mm
wrench.
3. With the screwdriver still engaged in the notch,
loosen the inner nut (4) just until the notch (5)
disengages from the boss (6) on the drill press head.
NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE THIS INNER NUT,
because the spring will forcibly unwind.
4. Carefully turn the spring cap (2) counterclockwise
with the screwdriver, engaging the next notch.
5. Lower the quill to the lowest position by rotating the
feed handle in a counterclockwise
direction while
holding the spring cap (2)in position.
6. If the quill moves up and down as you desire, tighten
the inner nut (4) sung against the spring cap and
spring cap with the wrench. If too loose, repeat
steps 3 through 5 to tighten, if too tight, reverse
steps 4 and 5.
7. Secure the outer nut (3) against the inner nut with
the wrench.
NOTE: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
and restrict quill
