Feed Lever – This is used to plunge down into the workpiece mounted to one side of the machine.

It also includes more formal education when I attended secondary school during what was known then as woodwork and metalwork.

Electric Motor – Made with induction motors rated between 187 and 850W.

The motors power is transmitted via V-Belt and pulley wheel systems to the spindle and chuck 3.

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 2.
