8. Operation

WARNING:
If you are not familiar with this kind of machine, take
advice from an experimented person. In any case
you should have read and understood the safety and
operational instruction before attempting to operate
this product.
Pivoting the table, Fig. 11
1. To bring the table (3) to the inclined position, re-
lease the table locking (h) and adjust the desired
table angle. Re-tighten the table locking
Adjusting table height, Fig. 12
1. Loosen the table support lock handle (b).
2. Adjust the table (3) to the desired height.
3. Re-tighten the table locking (b).
Note: it is better to lock the table to the column in a
position so that the tip of the drill bit is just slightly
above the top of the workpiece.
Installing drill bits
1. Insert drill bit into chuck (A) far enough to obtain
maximum gripping of chuck jaws (B). (When us-
ing a small drill bit do not insert it so far that the
jaws touch the flutes -spiral grocves -of the drill
bit. )
2. Make sure that the drill bit is centered in the chuck
before tightening the chuck with the chuck key
(C). optional.
3. Tighten the drill chuck sufficiently, so that the drill
bit does not slip while drilling.
4. Turn the chuck key clockwise to tighten, anticlock-
wise to loosen. Tighten the drill bit equally by us-
ing all three holes in succession. The drill bit can
be release by using one hole only.
Choosing speed and tensioning belt, Fig. 13
Note! Pull power plug!
1. You can set different spindle speeds on your pillar
drilling machine:
2. WITH THE SWITCH „OFF", open pulley cover.
3. Loosen the drive belt on the right side of the ma-
chine head by unfastening the wing screws (12)
on both sides. Pull the right side of the motor in
the direction of the spindle to loosen the v-belt.
Tighten the wing screws again.
4. Attach the v-belt to the corresponding belt pulleys.
5. Loosen the wing screws and push the right side
of the motor backwards to clamp the v-belt again.
6. Tighten belt tension lock knob. Belt should deflect
approximately 13 mm –1/2" -by thumb pressure at
mid-point of belt between pulleys.
7. Close pulley cover.
8. If belt slips while drilling readjust belt tension.

Tip: Safety switch
If you want to adjust speed you have to open the
pulley cover. The device switches off immediately to
avoid the risk of injuries.
Removing the chuck
Open jaws of chuck as wide as they go by turn-
ing chuck sleeve anticlockwise (when viewed from
above).
Carefully tap chuck with mallet in one hand while
holding chuck in other hand to prevent dropping it
when released from spindle nose.
Depth stop, Fig. 14
The depth stop enables the drilling of holes in the
workpiece until a defined depth. You have two op-
tions for that.
Drilling to a specific depth
1. Mark the drilling depth (H) on one side of the
workpiece.
2. WITH THE SWITCH „OFF", bring the drill bit down
until the tip or lips are even the mark.
3. Hold the feed handle at this position.
4. Spin the lower nut (B2) down to contact the depth
stop lug (13) on the head.
5. Spin the upper nut (B1) down and tighten against
the lower nut.
6. The chuck and the drill bit wiII now be stopped af-
ter travelling downward the distance selected on
the depth scale.
Depth scale method, Fig. 6
Note: for this method, with the spindle in its upper po-
sition the tip of the drill bit must be just slightly above
the top of the workpiece.
1. Switch off the machine, lower the drill so far until
the indicator (g) points at the desired drilling depth
of the depth scale (e).
2. Turn the lower nut (B2) downwards until it reaches
the lower stop (13).
3. Lock the lower nut (B1) against the upper nut.
4. The chuck and the drill bit will now be stopped af-
ter travelling downward the distance selected on
the depth scale.
Positioning table and workpiece, Fig. 15
Always place a piece of back up material (H) ('wood,
plywood...) on the table underneath the workpiece
(B). This wiII prevent splitering or making a heavy
burr on the underside of the workpieces as the drill
bit breaks through. To keep the back up material from
spinning out of control it must contact the left side of
the column as illustrated.
