I have been making some holes for salt and pepper grinders.
3 days ago, when the bit stopped moving, I discovered that the nut on the top of the pulley was loose. It has a left threaded nut. I tightened and re tightened 10-20 times.Would work for 1/8" and loosen. I then put a low strength lock tite stuff (only stuff I had) in and waited 2 days- didn't help at all.
My manual doesn't even list parts. I tried the internet, but can't seem to find the right help.
Should I try to get a nut from hardware store? Better lock tite??? Buy a new drill press????
