Axminster Professional AP700PD Floor Pillar Drill - 230V

This is a medium sized, floor standing pillar drill. Cast iron and machined steel giving high strength, reliability and stability. It has a highly accurate chuck spindle assembly, running in NSK ball race bearings. Powered by a smooth running 750W induction motor, there are 12 belt speeds from 120 to 2,580rpm. The belts are of the multi-vee type for maximum grip and low vibration. The belt cover has a safety switch to prevent the drill being run with the cover open.

The chuck guard is electrically interlocked for safety. The switch system has a separate locking emergency stop switch, plus a separate switch for the LED work light. Table height is controlled via a rack and pinion system; the whole table assembly can be swivelled away to allow the base to be used as a work support.
