NOVA's most popular drill press just got taller!
Everything you love about the unique Nova Viking Drill Press is now available in a floor mount model - full pedestal configuration! But let's remind you about the features you will find on both Viking Model Drill Presses...
Based around a new 1HP Direct Drive DVR motor, these machines deliver power and speed in spades. Being direct drive, there are no belts or pulleys, no vibration and no loss of power transference. The smart electronics mean you have constant self-adjusting torque throughout the 150-6000 RPM range! A large bright display is very clear, easy to read and use and features a host of user-friendly features found only on Nova's DVR Technology.
The Nova Viking's have no comparison. They are a premium, feature-packed drill press that represent a great option for all woodworkers, but further, due to the RPM range, power and electronic features, they represent a genuine cross-over machine capable of metal work as well.
