| Software notes | As an exclusively manual mechanical machine tool, this drill press operates without onboard digital control systems, firmware, or software interfaces. Speed changes are executed manually by repositioning the Poly-V drive belts within the head enclosure. Spindle movement is operated via a traditional side handwheel with a mechanical depth stop and scale. No software connectivity, network access, or digital configuration is required or supported. | — |
