Woodstock THE SHOP FOX D2722 - Manual (Page 24)

Use Figure.37.to select the optimum motor-to-spindle pulley ratio for drilling, cutting, and sanding
operations. for example the above figure shows the belt in the C position on the spindle pulley and the
#3 position on the motor pulley, which will give a speed of 1,520 RPM. Refer to the Drill,.Cutter,.and.
Saw.RPM.Chart on Page.23 for suggested tool RPMs.

Drilling.Depth
Your new drill press comes fitted with a depth
stop that allows drilling many holes at a pre-
set depth consistently. When the hex nuts are
set, the nuts will contact the stop flange and
stop the drill press from drilling any deeper.
To.adjust.the.drilling.depth,.do.these.steps:
1. Measure the maximum depth that you want
to drill a series of holes at. In this example
the maximum depth is 1 1 ⁄
4
" deep.
2. Loosen the hex nuts shown on the depth
stop and align the lower nut to the 1 1 ⁄
4
"
mark on the depth stop rod (see Figure.
38).
3. Hold the lower hex nut and tighten the
upper hex nut so both nuts are locked
together.
4. Make sure the depth has been set cor-
rectly, measure, or drill a hole into scrap
wood before drilling into any workpiece.
