Welding steel and cast iron

[Robert1998]

Fixed!! 2 nuts welded in a steel bar and 2 screws. When I unscrew them they push the motor



Now I can push the motor and because the force is aplied closer to the pulleys, the shaft keeps vertical

Another thing was that this pulley was a little bit grip. I have removed it, clean and put again with grease and now the belts works better.



Thanks for all your advice

ah , there was a wing nut to hold the tension all along ,,, got it now .

Same crap design as my Clarke drill, I just wedged a piece of ally inbetween the motor and the body to hold the tension

Probably, thousands of craftsmen have already spent hundreds of thousands of hours to bring these Chinese bench drills to the likeness of a real drilling machine.

When I needed an URGENT drilling machine, I cried buying the same. Alas, this is not a drill for drilling holes, but a device "for making hollow". I was only comforted by the fact that the price of the work and the speed of its execution were adequate to the purchase price.

Advice that no one needs: Don't waste your time, there are a lot of sites where you can buy a decent used factory grade drill.

Thanks for your answers.

Another question. I have noticed that when I put the belt that goes on the motor pulley, if I put it in the 2 lower pulleys, it is fine, but if I put it on the 2 upper ones, it makes that sound.

Is that normal??

Definitely not nirmal

Any witness marks on the inside of the cover ?

That sounds like it might be the motor pulley key knocking on the guard, If you're getting more tension on the belts with the new setup. Cut the hole bigger where the motor shaft goes through.
