I have some friends that have a Grizzley Drill Press. The motor make
a lot of noise. I mean a lot. They took it back to Grizzly and
Grizzly said that that was normal. I would have returned the drill
press and if they all were that noisy, I would look elsewhere.

Is it a variable speed? If so...they can indeed be noisy from the git
go.

No. It is an ordinary single phase motor with very noisy bearings.
It makes a lot of noise when there is no belt connected to the motor.
A supplier like MSC would have replaced the motor or replaced the
whole drill press.
They made a mistake in asking Grizzly if the noise was normal. They
should have told Grizzly they wanted to exchange the drill press
because the bearings were bad.

Is it a 16-speed one (the one with the idler step pulley in the
middle on a swing arm?) If so, is it similarly noisy when the belt
cover is opened?

I've got a Taiwanese drill press of the sort (from around 1978
or so) which was fine until I had to put new belts on it, and the actual
belt length was a little different (US made belts, instead of import
ones) causing the swing arm to bring the pulley into contact with the
side of the belt guard.

I removed the guard and its bottom pan, punched a new hole in
the bottom pan to allow the pivot rod for the swing arm to reside in a
new location, and punched new holes for the screws which secured it.
This let the guard move to the side a bit so it cleared the idler pulley
at all belt settings.

Of course -- it *could* really be the motor. Take the belt off
the motor and just let it run with no belt and see what it sounds like.
If it is silent then, start adding belts and see when the noise returns.

Enjoy,
DoN.

True indeed.

Or they can simply bite the bullet and spend the $15 for new bearings of
good quality.

If they are shielded instead of sealed you might be able to squirt a
little oil or non-foaming chain lube in.

Not my drill press. It is noisy with no belt connected to the motor.
And not a little noisy. If it were my drill press I would be
pressing Grizzly to do something. And if they would not do anything,
I would replace the bearings. Not that it will not drill holes, but I
do not want to wear ear muffs every time I use a drill press.

I think Grizzly imports tools and sells them without ever inspecting
them. And depends on the customer to find out any problems. Okay if
you are close to Grizzly, but not so good if you have to pay shipping
to return a defective part and have to wait for a replacement. And
not so good if Grizzly says everything is good when it is not.

On the other hand, they do sell tools cheaper than companies that
check tools before they sell them.

My Grizzly story: I ordered a 50 ton press after reviewing the online
photo and confirming the details from the downloadable user manual,
which showed and described a two-stage pump. But the press arrived
with a single-stage pump, which is real pain sometimes. I complained
and they told me I could return it at my own expense. sigh 750 lb
IIRC, and the crate wasn't up for a return trip. They claimed that
two-stage pumps were no longer available, but that was nonsense
because the HF versions had that plus air. So they were BSing and I
vowed to never deal with them again. But then out of the blue a day or
so later they called and offered $100 credit. I still wish I could
have undone the deal practically and purchased what I intended. But at
least they offered a fair compromise, so I've continued using them.

I got the Chinese one for $7.50. They wanted $27 for the SKF bearing
and I wasn't interested. This for the idler on the DP I got from you
two years ago. I should probably install that sometime, huh? sigh

Their own product? LOL... You mean their own rebranded product.

Can't argue with much else. the G0521 drill press, except for difficult
speed changes, is the best low cost drill press we've ever used.
