5. Maintenance .............................. 18
6. Stability of Dri!l Press
The drill press should be bolted to the floor;
an alternate is to securely bolt a piece of
1t2" exterior plywood to the underside of the
Base, extending to both sides, and to rear if
desired.
If the workpiece is too large to support with
one hand, provide an auxiliary support.
Location
The drill press should be positioned so
neither the operator nor a casual observer is
forced to stand in line with apotential Kick-
back.
,
8. Kickback
A kickback occurs when the workpiece is
suddenly thrown in the OPPOSITE direction
to the DIRECTION OF FEED; THIS CAN
CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. Kickbacks are
most commonly caused by:
a. Relaxing your grip of the workpiece while
surfacing or planing.
b. Taking too heavy a cut while surfacing or
planing.
c. Ignoring the instructions for surfacing or
planing.

or clamping ledge around outside edge of
Table. This is to prevent the drill bit from
grabbing the work from your hands. This
action would cause the workpiece to spin
with the drill, and could cause serious
injury. A drill press vise must be fastened
to the table.
f. Never perform any operation "free-hand"
.(hand-holding workpiece rather than sup-
port it on the Table), except when polish-

DRILLING TO DEPTH
To drill a BLIND hole (not all the way through) to
a given depth, can be done two ways.
1. Mark the depth of the hole on the side of the
workpiece.
2. With the switch OFF bring the drill down
until the TIP or lips are even with the Mark.
3, Spin the lower nut down to contact the depth
stop lug on the Head.
4. Move the POINTER all the way down.
5. Spin the upper nut down and tighten against
the pointer.
ANOTHER WAY --
1. With the switch OFF, bring the drill down
until the TIP touches the TOP of the WORK-
PIECE.
2. Adjust the nuts so the Pointer is set to the
desired DEPTH... TIGHTEN the UPPER NUT
against the Pointer. For example.., if you
want to drill a hole one inch deep, set the
pointer at the one inch mark in the scale,

basic drill press operation
INSTALLING DRILLS CHUCK KEY
Insert drill into chuck far enough to obtain maxi-
mum GRIPPING o{ the CHUCK JAWS...the
jaws are approx. 1 in. long. When using a small
drill do not insert it so far that the jaws touch the
flutes (spiral grooves) of the drill.
make sure that the drill is CENTERED in the
chuck before tightening the chuck with the key.
Tighten the drill sufficiently, so that it does not
SLiP while drilling.
POSITIONING TABLE AND WORKPIECE
Lock the table to the column in a position so
that the tip of the drill is just a little above the
top of the workpiece.
Always place a piece of BACK-UP MATERIAL
(wood, plywood... ) on the table underneath the
workpiece. This will prevent "splintering" or
making a heavy burr on the underside of the
workpiece as the drill breaks through. The back-
up material must contact the left side of the
column.
CAUTION: To prevent the workpiece or the back.
up material from being torn from your hand
while drilling, position them against the left side
of the column. Failure to do this could result in
personal injury.
CAUTION: If the workpiece or the back-up
material are not long enough to reach the col- /
umn, CLAMP them to the table, Failure to do this
could result !n personal injury.,
i i i iii n, nl ii I
For small pieces that cannot be clamped to the
tabte, use a drill press vise (Optional accessory).
The vise must be clamped or bolted to the table.
TILTING TABLE
To use the table in a bevel (tilted) position, loos-
en the set screw under table bevel lock with set
screw wrench. Loosen bevel lock with adjustable
wrench.
Titt table to desired angle by reading bevel scale.
Retighten bevel lock and set screw.

To return table to original position: !oosen set
screw and bevel lock, tilt table back to 0°on
bevel scale, and retighten set screw - then tight-
en bevel lock.
HOLE LOCATION
Make a DENT in the workpiece where you want
the hole.., using a CENTER PUNCH or a SHARP
NAIL.
Before turning the switch ON, bring the dr
down to the workpiece lining it up with the ho
location.
FEEDING
Putt down on the feed handles with only enough
effort to allow the drill to cut.
Feeding TOO SLOWLY might cause the drill to
burn... Feeding TOO _APIDLY might stop the
motor.., cause the belt or drill to SLIP... tear
the workpiece LOOSE or BREAK the drill bit.

8. Move stop nuts and depth pointer to upper
most position and check tension while turn-
ing feed handles.
g. If there is not enough tension on spring,
repeat steps 4-8 moving only ONE notch each
time and checking tension after EACH repeti-
tion.

Proper tension is achieved when quill returns
gently to full up POSition when released from
3/4" depth.
When there is enough tension after checking,
replace jam nut and tighten to standard nut,
BUT do not overtighten against standard nut.
12. Check quill while feeding to have smooth and
unrestricted movement. If movement is too
tight, SLIGHTLY loosen jam nut until unre-
stricted.

maintenance
WARNING:, FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN
SWITCH OFF AND REMOVE PLUG FROM
POWER SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE MAINTAIN-
ING OR LUBRICATING YOUR DRILL PRESS.
Frequently blow out any dust that may accumu-
late inside the motor.
A coat of automobile-type wax applied to the
table and column will help to keep the surfaces
clean.
If the power cord _s worn or cut, or damaged in
any way, have it replaced immediately.
lubrication
All of the BALL BEARINGS are packed with
grease at the factory. They require no further
lubricat ion.
Periodically lubricate the gear and rack table
elevation mechanism, the SPLINES (grooves} in
the spindle, and the RACK (teeth on the quill).
