SPINDLE SPEEDS
Five spindle speeds of 620, 1100, 1720, 2340 and 3100 RPM are available. The highest speed is obtained when the belt is on the largest step of the motor pulley and the smallest step of the spindle pulley, as shown in Fig. 28. Fig. 28, illustrates which steps the pulleys the belt must be placed to obtain the five speeds available.
CHANGING SPEEDS AND
ADJUSTING BELT TENSION
1.Disconnect the tool from the power source.
2.Lift up the belt and pulley guard (A) Fig. 29.
3.Release belt tension by loosening tension lock knob
(B) Fig. 29, and pivoting the motor toward the front of the drill press, as shown.
4.While holding the motor toward the front of the drill press head, position the belt (C) on the desired steps of the motor and spindle pulleys, as shown in Fig. 29. A belt positioning chart (D) is provided on the inside top cover of the drill press for your convenience.
5.After the belt is positioned on the desired steps of the motor and spindle pulleys, pivot motor away from the drill press head until the belt is properly tensioned and tighten tension lock knob (B) Fig. 30. The belt should be just tight enough to prevent slipping. Excessive tension will reduce the life of the belt, pulleys and bearings. Correct tension is obtained when the belt

ADJUSTING SPINDLE
RETURN SPRING
The spindle is automatically returned to its upper most position upon release of the handle. It is recommended that the handle be allowed to slowly return to the top position after all holes have been bored in the material. This spring has been properly adjusted at the factory and should not be disturbed unless absolutely necessary. To adjust the return spring, proceed as follows:
1.Disconnect the tool from the power source.
2.Loosen the two nuts (B) Fig. 32, approximately 1/4". Do not remove nuts (B) from shaft (C).
3.While firmly holding spring housing (A) Fig. 33, pull out housing and rotate it until the boss (D) is engaged with the next notch on the housing. Turn the housing counterclockwise to increase and clockwise to decrease spring tension. Then tighten the two nuts (B) to hold the housing in place. IMPORTANT: Inside nut (B) should not contact spring housing (A) when tight.
OPERATION
The following directions will give the inexperienced operator a start on common drill press operations. Use scrap material for practice to get a feel of the machine before attempting regular work.
WARNING: The use of accessories and attach- ments not recommended by Delta may result in risk of injury.
IMPORTANT: When the workpiece is long enough it should always be positioned on the table with one end against the column, as shown in Fig. 34. This prevents the workpiece from rotating with the drill bit or cutting tool, causing damage to the workpiece or personal injury to the operator. If it is not possible to support the workpiece against the column, the workpiece should always be fastened to the table using clamps or a vise.

BORING IN WOOD
Twist drills, although intended for metal drilling, may also be used for boring holes in wood. However, machine spur bits are generally preferred for working in wood; they cut a flat bottom hole and are designed for removal of wood chips. Do not use hand bits which have a screw tip; at drill press speeds they turn into the wood so rapidly as to lift the work off the table and whirl it.
For through boring, line up the table so that the bit will enter the center hole to avoid damage. Scribe a vertical line on the front of the column and a matchmark on the table bracket, so that the table can be clamped in the center position at any height.
Feed slowly when the bit is about to cut through the wood to prevent splintering the bottom face. Use a scrap piece of wood for a base block under the work; this helps to reduce splintering and protects the point of the bit.
DRILLING METAL
Use clamps to hold the work when drilling in metal. The work should never be held in the bare hand; the lips of the drill may seize the work at any time, especially when breaking through the stock. If the piece is whirled out of the operator's hand, he may be injured. The drill will be broken when the work strikes the column.
The work must be clamped firmly while drilling; any tilting, twisting or shifting results not only in a rough hole, but also increases drill breakage. For flat work, lay the piece on a wooden base and clamp it firmly down against the table to prevent it from turning. If the piece is of irregular shape and cannot be laid flat on the table, it should be securely blocked and clamped.
