Description of Parts
The Foot Control
Is a dual action foot switch comprised of two air valves that will
first activate the indexing cylinders and with increased pressure,
will drop the drilling head.
Air Pressure Regulators
Are located on the right side of the machine. The rear regulator
will regulate how fast the drilling head will descend and the
front regulator will adjust how much force the indexing pins
exert. The rear regulator is factory set at 6 turns from the fully
off and the front is factory set at 5 turns from fully off.
Drive Link Belt
The drive link belt stretches from the motor pulley to the main
drive pulley. Its job is to transfer the torque of the motor to the
bits in the head.
Table Leveling Bolts
Located under the worktable are four bolts that raise from the
machine case. These bolts support and allow for easy
adjustment of the height of the tabletop.
Drop Gauges
The front set of the drop gauges factory set to 37mm. The drop
gauges can be removed and repositioned.
LB-23 Motor
The LB-23 uses a 1 HP Baldor Motor to do the work of turning
the head. It uses 120V power and is turned on by the on/off
switch located on the front.
