Sorry to get back to you so late. here is the link for your owners manual. vintagemachinery.org/pubs/222/4824.pdf As for removing the spindle pulley assembly, this video shows it at 7:04 <iframe width="560" height="315" src="" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer...

I prefer the 103.22500 tracking system. The tracking system on the 22540 is not great and impossible to adjust one handed.

It does, Emerson began adding the mounting point to all tables starting with the Gen 2 drill press. The tilting table does show up from time to time on ebay but the best way to get one is to buy a drill press with one on it, then resell the drill press after you remove the tilting table. This is...

Cool, I Know someone who has the attachment and may be willing to sell it. Let me know when you are ready and I will reach out to him.

the Commercial model is great but you may still need to slow the rpms down depending on what you are drilling. There is a rare slow speed attachment for the Emerson later models. Here is a video about it.

I am saving the link for the column collars. Me like them....

Yes, from the pics it look correct and complete.

Thank you, I made thread about the pedestal tool stands some time ago here: https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/pics-of-craftsman-pedestal-mounted-tools.497855/ And I made a thread about the castors for the pedestal tool stands as well, here...

Franklee, do you think the casters are from an old factory dolly cart? it is what comes to mind when I look at them. Outlaw, the base of the pedestal and the columns may be the same as the 6" Jointer but the top mounts on my 6" Jointer are not square like the ones on my wood lathe pedestal. It...

Very nice catch. Original receipt for a dp in great condition is awesome. The wood lathe pedestal is one of the hardest for me to locate. I have only seen 3 for sale in my area over the years and eventually snagged one. The lathe is ok but I prefer the 100 series wood lathe. The bed is way...

Lots of good information in the past few posts. I never really considered the stud could lock the head to the column but that makes perfect sense. It is a good practice to always block the head when disassembling. I often place a piece of 2x4 between the bottom of the head and the top of the...

You will need to message FrankLee here on Garage Journal. He is the expert on the 12.5" drill press. I normally only work with the 15.5" drill presses.

Yep, both stands were available for most wood working tools. I have seen a big variety of mounting these tools but probably the most common was to make a wood stand. I assume most people figured why buy a stand when you could make one for fairly cheap and make it fit your work space and needs.

So for my 103.22500, the manual calls for a ½ hp 3450 rpm motor and for continuous operation, a ¾ hp 3450 rpm motor. The speed attained with a 2” pulley is 2700 rpm. The tool pulley size is not specified but I think it is a 2” or 2 ¼”. For the 103.22540, the information is the same. Both of...
