the V-belt. Proceed as follows: (1) Remove the screw (16) in order to open the V-belt cover (7). (2) Slacken
the tightening screw (15) and push the motor (8) in the direction of the machine head. (3) Move the V-belt
to the desired position. (4) Refer to table (Fig. 8) for the recommended speeds. (5) Tighten the V-belt by
pushing the motor (8) away from the drill head (6). Screw the tightening screw (16) back down again. The
tension is properly set when the V-belt flexes in the middle by approx. 1cm when pressed. (6) Close the
V-belt cover and screw down using the screw (16). The V-belt cover (7) must always be locked tight, as the
equipment is equipped with a safety switch that only allows the equipment to be turned when the V-belt
cover (7) is closed. Important! Never let the pillar drill run when the Vbelt cover is open. Always pull power
plug before opening the cover. Never touch the V-belt when it is rotating.
4.1 Drill depth stop (Fig. 10)
The drilling spindle has a swivelling scale ring (25) for setting the drill depth. Only adjust the setting when
the equipment is at a standstill. (1)Press the drilling spindle (11) downwards until the tip of the drill bit
touches the workpiece. (2)Slacken the clamping screw (17) and turn the scale ring (25) forwards until it
stops. (3)Turn the scale ring (25) back to the desired drill depth, then lock this setting into place using the
clamping screw (17). Important! When setting the drill depth of a cylindrical hole you must add the length
of the drill tip.
5. Setting the angle of the drill table (Fig. 7)
(1)Slacken the carriage bolt (26) under the drill table (4). (2)Set the drill table (4) to the desired angle. (3)
Tighten down the carriage bolt (26) in order to lock the drill table (4) into this position.
6. Setting the height of the drill table (Fig. 1)
(1)Slacken the tightening screw (5).
(2)Set the drill table (4) to the desired height by pressing down or lifting up and simultaneously (gently)
pushing to the left or right. (3)Screw the tightening screw (5) back down again.
7. Clamping the workpiece
As a general rule, use a machine vice or another suitable clamping device to lock a workpiece into position.
Never hold the workpiece in place with your hand! When drilling, the workpiece should be able to travel on
the drill table (4) for self-centering purposes. Ensure that the workpiece cannot rotate. This is best achieved
by placing the workpiece/machine vice on a sturdy block. Important! Sheetmetal parts must be clamped in
to prevent them from being torn up. Properly set the height and angle of the drill table for each workpiece.
There must be enough distance between the upper edge of the workpiece and tip of the drill bit.
8. Adjustment of speeds
The spindle speeds can be adjusted by changing the position of v-belt on the pulley when adjusting, mover
the v-belt to required position after releasing the shifter bar, then fasten the shifter bar again as soon as the
v-belt has been adjusted in proper working condition.
