I picked up an old post drill today at an estate sale. The only marking on it is "PD20." I don't think it is a Champion or a Cannedy-Otto (the pulley for the belt drive doesn't look like the ones in the pictures I've found. Maybe an ACME.) The drill is intact and turns but will need some major cleaning.
Cleaning part of it I found an oil hole. What do these things need in terms of lubrication. Squirt some oil in any hole and lube the feed screw? I'm assuming there are some bearings in it somewhere. Maybe a set where the feed screw mates to the quill. There's a fitting that connects the two with a small bolt at one end and what looks like a pin at the other. Set of bearings at the top of the feed screw where the downfeed gear is attached? I've always wanted a post drill, but have never ever seen one in person before today. Any help is appreciated.
