Hi Folks- I have an older 0463 that I bought used- I have just started doing some projects and running into a stalling issue, typically while drilling. I was drilling tonight with a 3/8 drill, freshly sharpened. I am not applying too much pressure, and I am clearing the chips regularly. I was drilling steel and had drilled a pilot as well. The chips are coming off evenly and are not colored. The issue is that I got a number of stalls- the motor stops. The fault light does not come on, and I don’t have to reset, I just have to turn the direction switch off and back on and the mill starts right back up. The other “symptom” I am seeing is that the speed control does not seem very linear. Is this just a limitation of the mill? Or should I be looking at something that needs to be fixed. Thanks!
