FAQs

What is the chuck capacity of the PDM155B?

The drill features a 16mm chuck capacity.

Can I use this drill for portable work?

No, this is a bench-mounting model intended for permanent installation in a workshop.

Does this drill have an MT2 spindle taper?

Yes, it is equipped with an MT2 spindle taper.

Why is the drill not starting even when plugged in?

Check the safety interlocks on the chuck guard and pulley cover; the machine will not operate if these are open.

What is the speed range of the drill?

The drill offers 16 speed settings ranging from 190 to 3000rpm.

Troubleshooting

Drill motor will not start

Verify the no-volt release switch is engaged and ensure the chuck guard and pulley cover are properly closed to trigger the interlocks.

Excessive vibration during use

Ensure the drill is securely bolted to a level bench and check that the belt tension is set correctly per the manual.

Work light is not turning on

Check the bulb connection and ensure the power cable is correctly plugged into a functional mains socket.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Wide range of 16 speed settings for versatility
  • Comprehensive safety features including inter-locked guards
  • Sturdy induction motor built for heavy-duty use
  • Integrated work light improves visibility and precision
  • Rack and pinion system makes height adjustments effortless

Cons

  • Requires a permanent mounting location due to its weight
  • Not suitable for mobile or field-based site work
  • Requires assembly before initial operation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal setup, ensure the PDM155B is bolted to a sturdy, flat workbench capable of supporting its weight and the vibrations generated during high-speed drilling. Check the pulley belt tension periodically and adjust it to ensure smooth power transmission. Always maintain the spindle taper cleanliness to keep chuck alignment accurate. To prolong the motor life, keep the drill clean from wood shavings or metal swarf by using a compressed air nozzle or brush after each use. Ensure that the electrically inter-locked guard is never bypassed, as this will disable the machine and compromise safety.
