you don't specify what break it is but i guess it can be repaired but not enough information on the break or where it broke ,is it the leaver or the gears or striped on the shaft??
regards pete
if its the rachet type that fits a 1/4" or 3/8" bolt shaft , lots of wood workign supply stores have them , plus a company called grainger has them as well
most tables have a rack and pinion gear that raises and lowers them , if this is tight first ck that lock bolt has not been applied (next to crank handle) if ok then oil it , me i use parafin wax because i only use mine for wood and oil tends to stick the sawdust to it , so i use wax instead
Check for an allen bolt. Open chuck all the way and look inside for an allen bolt some drill presse have gone to this method of attaching the chuck. Hope this helps.
remove the rack and have it welded together. File the teeth at the weld point to ensure smooth movement of the pinion gear. place plenty of lubricant in the groove at the base to ensure that the rack moves around when the table position is altered.
The chuck on 99% of the drill presses is just a press fit. The end of the spindle where the chuck goes on is slightly tapered to hold it on. Make sure the end of the spindle and inside surface of the chuck are very clean. With the motor off, raise the table high enough so you can still get the chuck on the spindle then turn the handle to lower the chuck against the table and press it firmly against the table to wedge the spindle in the chuck. There shouldn't be any need for anything more than this.
