Description

Every plug-in thing we sell arrives with a flat two-pin American plug on the end of its lead. That pin shape does not fit an Australian socket. This is the small white block that fixes it.

Australian three-pin end and the universal socket end

What it does

It changes the shape of the pins. There is no transformer inside it and it does not change the voltage.

That is fine, and here is why. The power supply that comes with the drill press is marked 100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz, which covers Australian outlets at 230 V, 50 Hz. The supply does the converting; the adapter only gets the pins into the wall. Read the label on your own supply before you plug anything in - if it says 120 V only, you need a transformer, not an adapter.

The socket end, which takes a US flat two-pin or a European round two-pin

What it fits

Socket end takes the US flat two-pin and the European round two-pin. Pin end is the Australian and New Zealand three-pin, Type I, with an earth pin. Rated 250 V. It is 3 cm across, which is small enough to live in the machine's box and not get lost.

Which quantity

One is enough for one machine. Two is for the bench that ends up with a drill press on one side and a bench supply on the other, which is most benches after a few months.

Buying the Mini Drill Press from Australia or New Zealand? You do not need to add this. We send one with the machine, free, in its own small parcel.

A passive pin adapter - not a surge protector and not a voltage converter.

Delivery

Free and tracked, to the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada alike. One to two weeks.

30-day returns from the day it arrives. Return postage is yours, the price of the item comes back in full.

Free tracked shipping on every order to the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, with no minimum. A few items ship to a shorter list of countries, and their page says so.

Orders leave within 2 business days. The delivery time for your country is shown under the price of each item. In the United States the Mini Drill Press, the lathes, the XYZ and XYZR micrometer stages and many of the tools ship from US warehouses and arrive in about a week or less. Items shipped from overseas take one to two weeks, a few larger ones two to four. You get a tracking number by email as soon as the parcel is scanned.

30-day returns from the day it arrives, unused and in its packaging. If it arrived damaged or faulty, we pay the return label. If you simply changed your mind, you pay the return postage and get the full price of the item back. Email support@arvonelle.com before sending anything back.

Do I pay tax or duty? In the United States, sales tax is added at checkout where your state charges it, and the total you see is what you pay. For Australia and New Zealand nothing is added at checkout. If a carrier ever asks you for a fee on one of our parcels, don't pay it: email us first and we sort it out.

What if a part breaks? For twelve months, tell us which part and we post a new one free. No return needed.

Can I cancel? Yes, within 24 hours of ordering, no questions asked.
