• Bronze slide bearing: Assists with easy movement and controlled guidance in the guide block.
• Auxiliary handle on the carriage: Improves handling and can be fixed in three positions.
• Rotatable centring plate: Allows accurate guidance for various drill and auger bit diameters.
• Lockable depth gauges: Help control drilling depth for repeatable bore holes.
• Square base plate: Provides secure support on timber surfaces.
• Scaled parallel stops: Make it easier to set drilling position quickly and consistently.
• Adapter ring included: Allows use with drilling machines with 43 mm or 57 mm collar attachment.

Benefits

• Improved drilling accuracy: The stand guides the drill squarely into the timber for clean, right-angled holes.
• Better control: The auxiliary handle and smooth carriage movement make deep drilling more manageable.
• Repeatable results: Depth gauges and scaled side fences help maintain consistent drilling positions and depths.
• Safer operation: Guided drilling reduces the risk of drill bit wandering or uncontrolled movement.
• Professional timber work: Ideal for carpentry, joinery and structural timber applications where accuracy matters.

Application

• Precise bore holes in wooden structures
• Right-angled drilling with auger bits
• Timber construction work
• Carpentry work
• Joinery work
• Deep drilling into beams and structural timber
• Repeat drilling where accurate positioning and depth control are required

Safety

• Wear eye, ear and dust protection when drilling into timber or wooden structures.
• Always read and follow the manufacturer’s operating and safety instructions before use.
• Make sure the drill is correctly fitted and securely clamped in the drill stand before drilling.
• Use the correct centring plate setting for the drill or auger bit diameter.
• Keep hands clear of the rotating drill bit and the drilling path.
• Ensure the drill stand base plate is stable and flat against the workpiece before starting.
• Do not exceed the recommended drill depth or drill bit length.
• Use sharp, suitable auger bits for timber drilling to reduce strain and improve accuracy.
• Disconnect the drill from the power supply or remove the battery before changing bits, adjusting the stand or carrying out maintenance.
