Ecoplus TS-20 Drill Press
How to use
- Use always glasses and if you're drilling metal, gloves are required
- Tool to drill wood, metal and plastic
- One speed. You don't need to set the speed.
- Fit the Bit. Open the chuck, slide in the bit, snug the chuck by hand around the bit’s shaft, then tighten.
- Adjust the Table. Release the clamping lever on the back of the platform and turn the crank on the right side to adjust the table height.
- Gauging the Depth.
- Secure the Workpiece. The rotation of the drill bit may try to spin the wood or metal workpiece, so it must be clamped to the worktable.
- Drilling.
Advantages
A drill press has a number of advantages over a hand-held drill:
- Less effort is required to apply the drill to the workpiece.
- The movement of the chuck and spindle is by a lever working on a rack and pinion, which gives the operator considerable mechanical advantage
- The table allows a vise or clamp to be used to position and restrain the work, making the operation much more secure
- The angle of the spindle is fixed relative to the table, allowing holes to be drilled accurately and consistently
- Drill presses are almost always equipped with more powerful motors compared to hand-held drills. This enables larger drill bits to be used and also speeds up drilling with smaller bits.
