1. Disconnect the drill press from its power supply before attempting to changing
the speed
2. Remove the single Phillips screw that secures Pulley Cover (4). It is above the Drive
Belt Tension Adjuster (10) and open the pulley cover
3. The speed is adjusted by the belt that connects the Spindle Pulley (8) and the
Motor Pulley (9)
4. To move the belt, loosen the Drive Belt Tension Adjuster (10) and pull the Motor (2)
towards the front of the drill
5. Position the belt onto the desired step on the pulleys according to the table above or
the provided table inside the lid of the pulley cover
IMPORTANT: Only operate the drill with the belt level. Operating the drill press with the
belt angled will result in serious damage to the tool and will invalidate the guarantee.
6. Lever the motor away from the front of the drill to tension the belt, then tighten the
drive belt tension adjuster and re-fit the pulley cover securing screw
Note: Low tension will cause the belt to slip and may cause the drill bit to lock in the
material. Over tensioning will cause excessive wear and noise. Correct tensioning is
tensioning at the first point where the belt can't slip in use and will provide maximum
life for the belt. As the belt ages and stretches tension will have to be increased again.
Eventually a replacement belt may be required.
Note: The pulley cover has a safety device which prevents the tool working if the pulley
cover isn't closed and can be seen inside the cover. If the tool fails to operate make sure
the pulley cover is closed correctly.
Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing protection, as
well as suitable gloves, when working with this tool.
WARNING: ENSURE gloves and clothes worn do not have loose threads that could get
caught by the rotating spindle and drag your hand or head into the rotating spindle causing
severe injury. It is recommended to wear gloves that are not fabric based.
Plunge Handles
The Plunge Handles (11) should always be used to feed the drill bit into the material. Pull
down on the handle to make the chuck move downwards towards the table. The plunge
mechanism will automatically return to a high position removing the drill bit from the
workpiece if the Plunge Handles aren't turned. Always control this ascent, do not let go of
the Plunge Handles in use.
Operating the chuck
The Chuck (7) can be opened or closed by using the provided chuck key. It is capable of
securing drill bits with shanks from 1.5 - 13mm.
Note: Ensure that the chuck is fully tightened before attempting to drill as it could cause
severe and permanent damage to the chuck and may invalidate the guarantee.
WARNING: Never fit any attachment with a maximum speed lower than the no load speed
of the belt position speed that the drill has been set to.
On/Off switch
To start the drill, press the 'I' Button of the On/Off Switch (3)
To stop the drill, press the 'O' Button
WARNING: Do not operate this tool for longer than 15 minutes in one continuous operation
and allow the tool to cool between long operations.
Table
The table can be adjusted for height, rotation and tilt. It has 2 slots for securing a vice (not
supplied) to the table surface and a central hole for allowing a drill bit to pass through the
material being drilled without damaging the surface of the table.
Position Adjustment
• Loosen the Table Locking Handle (12)
• Move the table to the height and rotation position for the required hole in the material
being drilled
• Tighten the handle once table position has been confirmed
• To adjust tilt, loosen Table Tilt Bolt (17) with a spanner (not supplied) and adjust using
the Table Tilt Angle Scale (16) to give the approximate required angle or set the table
exactly level using a spirit level. Then re-tighten the bolt
Note: Ensure that the table is securely tightened in position prior to use.
Drilling Depth
You can adjust the drilling depth by limiting the movement of the chuck/spindle. Adjust
the 2 nuts on the thread parallel to the Drilling Depth Gauge (5). Set between 0 and 50mm
as shown on the gauge. Locking the 2 nuts together at maximum height will give the full
50mm of travel.
CAUTION! Applying excess pressure does not result in faster or more efficient drilling. If the
pressure applied to the drill has a noticeable effect on the speed of the drill then reduce the
pressure. Overloading the drill will reduce its service life
As the drill bit penetrates the material being drilled, it may 'catch' or 'snag'. This may
cause the machine to suddenly 'kick'. To prevent any possibility of injury always ensure the
material is held securely by a vice or a clamp, and use sharp drill bits.
Drilling wood
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for wood and have a maximum rpm above the set
speed of the drill
WARNING: DO NOT inhale wood dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some wood
dusts may be toxic.
Drilling metal
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for the grade of metal being drilled and have a
maximum rpm above the set speed of the drill
WARNING: The drill bit and the workpiece will become very hot when drilling metal. DO
NOT touch the bit and never allow it to come into contact with combustible materials when
hot. Always use a suitable lubricant or cutting fluid, and drill at appropriate speeds.
• Only apply moderate pressure to the drill bit, ensuring efficient cutting and prolonged
drill bit life
• Use a countersink bit to remove sharp burrs from the hole, preventing cuts and other
kinds of injury.
Accessories
• A full range of accessories including drill bits, holesaws, wire brushes etc. is available
from your Silverline dealer
• Drill Press Vice 65mm (380677)
• Drill Press Vice 100mm (292674)

Maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any
maintenance/cleaning.
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear. Repairs
should be carried out by an authorised Silverline service centre. This advice also applies
to extension cords used with this tool
Lubrication
• This drill press comes correctly lubricated with grease and oil for the spindle
mechanism parts which will be sufficient for years of normal occasional use. However
if the drill press is frequently used it may need to be re-lubricated on a yearly basis.
Instructions on dismantling and re-assembling the spindle section are beyond the scope
of this manual. However, general advice for lubrication is as follows;
1. After dismantling, clean the components removing the old lubrication and check for
component excessive wear or damage
2. Lubricate the Bearings (19) with a good quality lithium-based grease. For sealed
bearings check functionality and grease them externally. Fill the Spline Sleeve (18) and
Spindle Sleeve (20) with grease and ensure the Spindle (21) is also greased
3. A light coating of engine oil can be applied for parts where grease cannot be applied or
where there is surface friction
Cleaning
WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when
cleaning this tool.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly,
and shorten the device's service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not sufficient, a mild
detergent on a damp cloth is recommended
• Water must never come into contact with the tool
• Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it
• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
(where applicable)
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children. If the tool
is permanently set up in a workshop or garage, ensure access is restricted to prevent
children operating the tool.
Disposal
Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools that are no longer
functional and are not viable for repair.
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic equipment
(WEEE), with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct way to
dispose of power tools
