Tools and Hardware Reviews of JET 354170/JDP-20MF 20-Inch Floor Drill Press

Customer Review: A brute
Summary: 4 Stars

A really heavy duty tool with the following notable characteristics: Exhibits noisy sheet metal at some speeds and vibration at highest speeds. Quill travel is only 4+ inches. At low speeds this press generates very high torque and will damage tools if the operator is not careful. (I installed a 1/2" chuck and did not drive the adapter in tightly. This press twisted the adapter out and ruined the chuck for precision work.) Depth gauge is slow to use. Tool does not have a quill lock. Like all drills of this type there is a big gap in speeds and getting over the gap requires switching belts. The table is very big and heavy. If you put a big cross vise on it, raising the table is very laborious. I rigged up a counter weight, and it makes life much easier. Runout with supplied 3/4" chuck is well under 0.002", which is excellent.

All in all, I think this press is bigger and stronger than I need. I'm thinking of selling it and getting the Delta variable speed with 6" quill travel and quill lock. The Delta costs less and, unless someone needs to drill or saw large holes in steel, I don't think they need this much drill press.

Also, all parts of the tool are VERY heavy. Unless you are a professional weight lifter, get a strong friend to help with assembly. Tool was packed very well and was delivered in perfect condition. Tech support is excellent.

Description of JET 354170/JDP-20MF 20-Inch Floor Drill Press

Floor drill press has a 1in. drilling capacity, a 1 1/2 HP, single-phase 115/230V motor and a hinged metal belt and pulley cover coupled with quick adjustment motor mount allow rapid changing of spindle speeds. Features adjustable tension spindle return spring and built-in work lamp (bulb not included). HP: 1 1/2, Volts: 115 / 230, Speeds (qty.): 12, Drilling Capacity (in.): 20, Chuck Size (in.): 3/4, Dimensions L x W x H (in.): 19 x 33 x 67
Tons of power and Jet's renowned accuracy make this a great choice for the professional as well as the choosy home woodworker. The smooth-traveling table raises and lowers at the turn of a crank to exactly where you need it; the 3/4-inch chuck rides smoothly up and down. Angled drilling is no problem, because the rock-solid large worktable tilts to 45 degrees. The table is round, and that has its advantages, but it does give you a little less room for clamping. When it's time to change drill speed to any of the 12 speeds ranging from 150 to 4,200 rpm, just flip open the hinged metal cover, disengage the motor, slip the belt onto the right pulley and you're back at work in a flash. Our favorite feature on this nice machine is the built-in worklight, something we think every manufacturer should incorporate. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Features

The Jet 354170's smooth-traveling table raises and lowers at the turn of a crank to exactly where you need it. And angled drilling is easy thanks to the rotating, 45-degree tilting worktable that also features a quick-release clamp. The 1-1/2-horsepower motor can run off either 115-volt outlets (for which it comes prewired) or 230-volt sources, and it provides 12 drill speeds ranging from 150 to 4,200 rpm. To change the speed, just flip open the hinged metal cover, disengage the motor, slip the belt onto the right pulley, and you're back at work in a flash.

The 354170 has a 1/2-inch diameter external positive depth stop with three-nut locking feature for quick adjustment. It also offers an adjustable tension spindle return spring, with the spindle supported by high-quality ball bearings. Other features include an on/off switch located on front of the drill press head and a built-in work lamp (bulb not included).
