FAQs
Does the SB4116HM come with a drill vice?
No, a machine vice is generally sold separately and is recommended for securing workpieces during operation.
Can this drill press be used for large hole saws?
Yes, provided you select the appropriate low-speed gear setting and ensure the workpiece is securely clamped.
How do I change the drilling speeds?
The speed is changed by adjusting the belt position on the pulleys located inside the top housing of the drill press.
Is this machine suitable for professional heavy-duty production?
It is ideally suited for serious DIYers and semi-professional use; for high-volume industrial production, you may require a floor-standing industrial model.
What is the maximum chuck capacity?
The drill press features a 16mm automatic keyless chuck.
Do I need to lubricate the rack and pinion?
It is recommended to apply a small amount of machine oil or grease to the rack gears to ensure smooth vertical movement.
Troubleshooting
Excessive vibration during drilling
Check that the base is securely bolted to the table and ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped.
Drill bit slipping in the chuck
Ensure the keyless chuck is fully tightened by hand and check that the bit shank is free of oil or debris.
Motor stalling under load
Check the belt tension; if it is too loose, the belt may slip under pressure. Adjust to manufacturer specifications.
