Drill Press Table Crank for 12mm Shaft  Enco Buffalo Morgan Detroit Guardian

Description

Table level crank handle busted? I restore drill presses for fun and profit. Replace your broken handle and return elevation function to your drill press table with 12mm worm drive shaft. These are difficult to obtain as most drill press tables made today use a 14mm shaft. If a 12mm open ended wrench fits your shaft nicely as shown, our new handle will have you moving smoothly up and down again. Made from quality ABS plastic at solid fill and has a beefy feel. Heavy steel fasteners. Grip spins on steel shaft making handle easy and pleasing to use. All holes and threads are machined in my shop by me for a perfect fit.
How to install: Remove your old busted handle, place this new one over the shaft aligning the setscrew hole over the flat on your worm drive shaft. Snug the stainless steel set screw. Ahhhhh, now don't you feel better?
This item is one complete crank handle and no other item or prop used in the photo's. The broken factory handle is shown but not included.
Note as of 01/18/2019, all units now include metal threads for the setscrew.  Much tougher, but still, don't be an animal!  Snug is about 1/4 turn past where the setscrew contacts the flat on your shaft.
The hand shown is not for sale.
Drill Press Tips: You can clean up your column with Scotch Brite. Once you get it clean, coat with 3 in One oil. This will prevent rust. Clean and lubricate the rack gear (long straight gear) and worm gear. Always be sure to release table level clamp before raising or lowering table. Don't forget the occasional dab of grease for the rack and drop of oil for the elevation crank shaft. Keep a block of wood handy to drill into. There is nothing uglier or more telling of a careless owner than peck marks from drilling into the table. ;-) I love my tools. Please take care of yours.
