Recommended Drill Protocol:
 +
#A full set of fractional, number and letter drills are available in a index case next to the drill. Use a drill from this case if one is available and usable. If a drill is unusable repair it or put it into the discarded drill tray. 
 +
#If no drill is available or usable in the index case take one from the cabinets.
 +
#When you are through with the drill replace it into the index case.
 +
#With this procedure users can be assured that drills from the cabinet are new and drills from the index case may be OK but should be checked.

−
 
 
−
No quill stop, must set table or head height to prevent drilling into table
 
−
 
 
−
Don't force gear selectors, hand turn spindle as needed to align gears
 
  
−
Gears reverse spindle, must turn power switch to appropriate side for correct spindle rotation direction
+
The spindle switch must be 'off' and the e-stop (big red button) must be in the out position (twist the button counter clockwise) before the spindle can be turned on. 
  
−
Power switch has two speeds to each side
+
Authorizations from the old DoAll drill press carry over to this machine.
  
−
Drill shanks must be firmly seated in taper
+
The motor direction is reversible using a switch on the back of the control box.  For nearly all drills, the spindle must rotate clockwise when viewed from above.
  
−
To remove drill, lower spindle to expose the slot in the quill, turn the spindle by hand until the quill slot lines up with the spindle slot, insert the #3 drift into the slot with the curved edge facing up, grasp drill, tap drift with hammer
+
Operation:
 +
# Setup material securely on the table. Be sure the drill will not drill into the table.
 +
# Turn e-stop counter clockwise
 +
# Turn on power switch on the back of the control box
 +
# Set the RPM based on the material being drilled and the drill diameter.
 +
# Set the direction switch on the back of the control box to 'forward'.
 +
# Move the spindle switch to 'on' when you are ready to drill.
 +
# To turn off, push the e-stop or move the spindle switch to the 'off' position.

Specifications

17" capacity (from the center of the spindle to the column).

VFD controlled 3 phase motor. Continuously variable spindle speed from 250-1470 RPM.

Morse #2 taper spindle

Capacity, mild steel 1/2"

Drills to center 17"

motor: 1 HP 3 phase

power: 120 V.

Weight: 400 pounds

Major Components

  • The VFD (top) and spindle control box (bottom)

  • The main power switch, located on the back of the spindle control box, in the 'off' position; this needs to be 'on' for the VFD to receive power

  • The spindle control panel: the RPM readout (top; unpowered), RPM control knob (middle), and spindle power switch (bottom; off); the spindle power switch needs to be 'on' before the motor will turn the spindle

  • The emergency stop button, in the 'off' (pushed-in) position; needs to be rotated to the left to pop out into the 'on' position; the e-stop should be disengaged before the spindle power switch is toggled 'on'

  • The spindle and the drill chuck which is more-or-less permanently inserted into it

  • The chuck key and retaining magnet

  • The feed lever, used to lower and raise the spindle

  • The adjustable (by screwing it up or down) depth stop attached to the spindle, used to limit its downward travel

  • The table, on which the work is placed or fixed

  • The handle used to adjust the height of the table; the table height lock needs to be disengaged before adjustment

  • The lever used to lock the height of the table, in the downward, 'locked' position

Auth/Use Notes

Recommended Drill Protocol:

  1. A full set of fractional, number and letter drills are available in a index case next to the drill. Use a drill from this case if one is available and usable. If a drill is unusable repair it or put it into the discarded drill tray.
  2. If no drill is available or usable in the index case take one from the cabinets.
  3. When you are through with the drill replace it into the index case.
  4. With this procedure users can be assured that drills from the cabinet are new and drills from the index case may be OK but should be checked.


These notes are for reference after authorization by a person.

The spindle switch must be 'off' and the e-stop (big red button) must be in the out position (twist the button counter clockwise) before the spindle can be turned on.

Authorizations from the old DoAll drill press carry over to this machine.

The motor direction is reversible using a switch on the back of the control box. For nearly all drills, the spindle must rotate clockwise when viewed from above.

Operation:

  1. Setup material securely on the table. Be sure the drill will not drill into the table.
  2. Turn e-stop counter clockwise
  3. Turn on power switch on the back of the control box
  4. Set the RPM based on the material being drilled and the drill diameter.
  5. Set the direction switch on the back of the control box to 'forward'.
  6. Move the spindle switch to 'on' when you are ready to drill.
  7. To turn off, push the e-stop or move the spindle switch to the 'off' position.

To-Do

A drill mounted in the chuck will have some run out. For most applications this should be acceptable. The cause could be a bent spindle or worn chuck.

We should to have a chart nearby showing recommended spindle speeds for various drill sizes and materials.

Maintenance

Equipment

Drills and vises are stored in the cabinet in front of the drill press.
