Sounds like a flyball governor on a steam engine... never heard of a drill like that. maybe a punch with 2 flywheels driving a crank?

It ran on a slow motor, rotating wheel, back and forward, back and forward. It had a biggish weight on the hacksaw frame to put some downward pressure on it. For some reason, it impressed me. You could put it on a big boring job and go off to do some weeding.
