    Default Hercus Drill Manual?

    Hi,

    Does anyone have any literature relating to an old Hercus pedestal drill 3MT flat belt drive type from the 1940's or possibly earlier?

    I was thinking of trying Hercus in South Australia but will ask here first.

    No luck with Hercus - they have nothing from this era.

    Did anyone on here buy the Hercus drill that was on Ebay a couple of months ago - it was in the North West part of Victoria I think - it looked like it had hardly ever been used.

    I recently got hold of an original slow speed attachment for my Richardson drill press too so that will be getting an overhaul in due course.

    I also have a small Fidax bench drill in my collection that is brand new so you see I like my Australian-made drill presses.

    What a crime that nothing is made here in Australia anymore.
