This drilling system was designed by CMT for all craftsmen and DIY buffs who require to drill holes for
hinges by various manufacturers in a precise reliable manner.
The system is made up of a multipurpose support to which a 3-arbor chuck head with a space between
holes that varies according to the type of hinge used can be fitted.
The support is made up of two chromed steel runner bars with springs (1) and a threaded bar (2) for
setting drilling depth. On the base, it is possible to adjust drilling distances; from the edge of the panel
to the hinge by means of the stop plate with pin and centre clamp knob (3) whereas, from the underside
of the panel to the hinge, this Is done with a Ø10mm (3/8") cylindrical bar (not included) that is fitted in
the hole at the side of the base (4). In the bottom part of the support, there are two side holes for fitting
the support board (5) or mounting CMT worktables on the plates.
The head is made up of a shaft (6) with a diameter of 8mm (5/16") (for use on all drills), which allows
the rotation of three bit holder arbors (7), each of which has two dowels for fitting the bits. The shaft and
the arbors have been burnished in order to avoid the formation of rust.
Two radial ball bearings have been fitted inside each arbor's head to ensure the utmost drilling precision.
On the front, there is a hole with a sphere (8) for the lubrication of the head with Mobil SHC100.
