Drill Press Microswitch MIKRO for bench drill TWS500 model YTWS50MW, replacement part (MPN YTWS50MW)

Microswitch designed for use in MIKRO bench drill model TWS500. This replacement electrical switch serves as a control or safety component in a drill press, providing reliable on/off signal switching for motor control or limit detection. It is intended for servicing and repairing the drill’s control circuitry to restore proper operation and maintain safe machine function.

Advantages

The microswitch offers compact dimensions and a straightforward mechanical action that ensure consistent electrical contact and rapid response to lever or actuator movement. Its design is compatible with typical bench-drill control layouts, allowing direct replacement of a worn or damaged switch without modification to surrounding components. The part supports maintenance tasks by restoring tactile control and safety interlock performance in the drill’s control system.

Suitable for

• Replacement of a failed control or safety switch in MIKRO TWS500 bench drills
• Repairing on/off signal function for motor control circuits
• Servicing limit detection or actuator-triggered electrical circuits

Key specifications

• Function: single-pole switching action for control or safety circuits
• Mounting: panel or bracket mounting compatible with bench drill control assemblies
• Actuation: lever or plunger actuation suitable for mechanical linkage
• Contact type: momentary electrical contact for on/off switching
• Electrical rating: designed for low- to moderate-current control circuits (use per original drill specifications)

How to use

To replace the existing microswitch, disconnect power to the drill and access the control housing according to the machine’s service instructions. Remove the old switch from its mounting, note or label wiring connections, and transfer the electrical leads to the new microswitch in the same arrangement. Secure the new switch in place and verify correct mechanical actuation by operating the control lever or limit linkage. Reconnect power and test the drill operation at low speed to confirm proper switching and safe function before returning the machine to normal use.

Usage recommendations

Observe the drill manufacturer’s safety procedures when servicing electrical components. Match wiring polarity and connections exactly as found on the original switch, and ensure that the replacement microswitch is suitable for the drill’s control circuit current and voltage. If in doubt, consult a qualified technician to confirm compatibility and to perform the installation.
