Comments:

This drill has a 1/2" straight shank chuck. Quill travel is 3" with 23 turns of the top feed wheel. That wheel has 55 teeth that can be selected at one tooth per crank, two per crank or three per crank. There are 39 teeth on the crank shaft and 22 on the quill. On this model the crank handle is on the 13" flywheel and has two places where the handle can be located. It weighs 58 1/2 lbs. The board appears to be original and the color is black with silver on the raised letters. Other than one wing of the table locking nut being broken off, it is in very good shape. The thrust bearing is a Bakelite disk. The left side casting reads "CANEDY-OTTO MFG CO CHICAGO HEIGHTS ILL". The right side reads "No 10 1/2".
