Help the science nerd. How do I adjust the belts for RPMs?
I need help thanks

Sorry my shop is in the kitchen. We do what we can.
Input so I can optimise the press is appreciated
It was so cool to drill out a pin. And to not wobble drilling scales.
I have a similar small drill press but of a cheaper make. On mine the mount for the motor is adjustable to allow slackening of the belts so you can move them on the spindles.
It's probably the small lever on the side in the second picture that releases the motor.
My release looks like this:

and the motor pivots on the other side:

Ok do you need to adjust the knob on the side only?
I have those on both sides.
Do you have to adjust motor vertical adjustment as well. Or Both have to be adjusted?
