• Smooth running 1,1kW motor, 12 belt speeds 150-2,700rpm • Large table with rack and pinion height adjustment • 3MT spindle, 3-16mm keyless chuck and LED work lampThe AP540PD is a solidly built floor standing pillar drill and a real work horse. It runs quiet and once fully bolted down to the workshop floor (a must for safety reasons) it is virtually vibration free. Cast iron and precision machined steel give this drill strength, stability, accuracy, and reliability. It has a 1,100W induction motor, which runs fine connected to a 13A socket. There are 12 belt speeds; from 150 to 2,700rpm. Multi-vee type belts give maximum grip and reduce vibration from power transmission. It has 3MT spindle taper and a highly accurate chuck spindle assembly, running in quality NSK bearings. A quality 3-16mm keyless chuck comes as standard. Down feed is via a one-piece cast iron handle with soft rubber grips; there is an accurate depth control. Table height is controlled using a rack and pinion. The table tilts and can be swivelled away to allow the base to be used as a work support. The switch system has a separate locking emergency stop switch, plus there is a separate switch for the integrated LED work light. The chuck guard and belt cover are electrically interlocked for safety. The AP540PD arrives 95% assembled, so no heavy lifting required.
