When the drill press is mounted to the supporting board, the board must extend a minimum of 3" beyond each edge of the drill press base, as shown in Fig. 12. INIMUM 3" MINIMUM Fig. 12 4. The plywood base must be secured to the floor or supporting surface if there is any tendency of the drill press to vibrate, slide or walk during normal operation. CONNECTING TOOL TO POWER SOURCE POWER CONNECTIONS A separate grounded electrical circuit should be used for your tool. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 amp fuse or circuit breaker. Before connecting the tool to the power line, make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position. If the power cord is worn, cut or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately by a certified electrician to avoid electrical shock or fire hazard. MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS Your tool is designed to use a 1720 RPM motor. It is wired at the factory for 120 Volts, 60 Hz alternating current. Never use a motor that runs faster than 1720 RPM. GROUNDING MWARNING: THIS TOOL MUST ELECTRIC SHOCK. BE GROUNDED iNSTRUCTiONS WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The motor is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept the tool's plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately. IMPORTANT: IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A QUALiFiED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE. GROUNDED OUTLET BOX-- CURRENT CARRYING "_ 120 VOLT OPERATION As received, your drill press is ready-to-run for 120 volt operation. This drill press, when wired for 120 volts, is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one shown in Fig. 13. GROUNDING BLADE IS LONGEST OF THE 3 BLADES If a properly grounded outlet is not available, a temporary adapter, shown in Fig. 14, may be used for connecting the 3-prong grounding type plug to a 2-prong receptacle. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal screw. Fig. 13 GROUNDED OUTLET BOX -- GROUNDING NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electric Code. MEANS ADAPTER _ Fig. 14 8 240 VOLT OPERATION GROUNDED OUTLET BOX Your drill press may be converted for 240 volt operation. CURRENT CARRYING The conversion of your drill press for 240 volt operation must be done by qualified electrical personnel. Should you desire to have your drill press converted for 240 volt operation, take your drill press to your local Authorized Delta Service Center. You can call 800-223-7278 for the location of the nearest Authorized Service Center. _GROUNDING When converted for 240 volt operation, your drill press is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet like the one illustrated in Fig. 15. After conversion for 240 volts, the drill press will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. 15. BLADE IS LONGEST _- OF THE 3 BLADES Fig. 15 Make sure the drill press is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter is available or should be used when the drill press is converted for 240 volts. If the drill press must be reconnected for use on a different type of electrical circuit, the re-connection should be made by qualified service personnel; and after re-connection, the tool should comply with all local codes and ordinances. EXTENSION CORDS Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and a 3-hole receptacle which will accept the tool's plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the drill press. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. 16, shows the correct gauge to use depending on cord length and voltage. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Refer to chart (E) Fig. 24, which is conveniently located on the underside of the belt and pulley guard (A) for belt position and speed charts. Fig. 24 5. After the belts are positioned on the desired steps of the spindle, center, and motor pulleys, move tension lever (C) Fig. 25, to the rear until the belts are properly tensioned and tighten two tension lock knobs (B), one of which is shown. NOTE: The belts should be just tight enough to prevent slipping. Excessive tension will reduce the life of the belt, pulleys, and bearings. Correct tension is obtained when the belts (D) can be flexed approximately one inch at the center of the pulleys using light finger pressure. Fig. 25 DRILLING HOLES TO DEPTH When a number of holes are to be drilled to exactly the same depth, a depth stop is provided in the pinion shaft housing and is used as follows: 1. Loosen lock screw (A) Fig. 26, and rotate housing (B) until the pointer (C) lines up with the desired depth indicated on scale (D). Then tighten lock screw (A). 2. All holes will then be drilled to the exact depth as indicated on scale (D) Fig. 26. NOTE: Scale (D) is calibrated in both inches and millimeters. Fig. 26 12 ADJUSTING SPINDLE RETURN SPRING The spindle is automatically returned to its upper most position upon release of the handle. It is recommended that the handle be allowed to slowly return to the top position after all holes have been drilled in the material. This spring has been properly adjusted at the factory and should not be disturbed unless absolutely necessary. To adjust the return spring, proceed as fol lows: 1. Fig. 27 Disconnect the tool from the power source. 2. Loosen the two nuts (B) Fig. 27, approximately Do not remove nuts (B) from shaft (C). 1/4". 3. While firmly holding spring housing (A) Fig. 28, pull out housing and rotate it until the boss (D) is engaged with the next notch on the housing. Turn the housing counter-clockwise to increase and clockwise to decrease spring tension. Then tighten the two nuts (B) to hold the housing in place, iMPORTANT: Inside nut (B) should not contact spring housing (A) when tight. Fig. 28 OPERATIONS Your Drill Press should be used with drill bits that have shank diameters of 5/8" or less. The following directions will give the inexperienced operator a start on common drill press operations. Use scrap material for practice to get a feel of the machine before attempting regular work. iMPORTANT: After installing a drill bit into the chuck, always tighten the jaws of the chuck using the key supplied in all three locations of the chuck, two of which are shown at (E) Fig. 30. IMPORTANT: When the workpiece is long enough, it should always be positioned on the table with one end against the column, as shown in Fig. 30. This prevents the workpiece from rotating with the drill bit or cutting tool, causing damage to the workpiece or personal injury to the operator. If it is not possible to support the workpiece against the column, the workpiece should always be fastened to the table using clamps or a vise. Fig. 30 13 iNSTALLiNG AND REMOVING DRILL BiTS 1. Insert smooth end of drill bit (A) Fig. 31, as far as it will go into the chuck (B), and then back the bit out 1/16", or up to the flutes for small bits. 2. Make certain that the drill bit (A) Fig. 31, is centered in the chuck (B) before tightening the chuck with the key (c). 3. Turn the chuck key (C) Fig. 31, clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen the chuck jaws. 4. Tighten all three chuck jaws to secure the drill bit sufficiently so that it does not slip while drilling. 5. MAKE SURE chuck key (C) Fig. 31, is removed from chuck before starting drill press. Your chuck key (C)is equipped with a self-ejecting pin (D) which eliminates the hazard of the key being left in the chuck. Fig. 31 BORING IN WOOD Twist drills, although intended for metal drilling, may also be used for boring holes in wood. However, machine spur bits are generally preferred for working in wood; they cut a square bottom hole and are designed for removal of woodchips. Do not use hand bits which have a screw tip; at drill press speeds they turn into the wood so rapidly as to lift the work off the table and whirl it. For through boring, line up the table so that the bit will enter the center hole to avoid damage. Scribe a vertical line on the front of the column and a matchmark on the table bracket, so that the table can be clamped in the center position at any height. Feed slowly when the bit is about to cut through the wood to prevent splintering the bottom face. Use a scrap piece of wood for a base block under the work. This helps to reduce splintering and protects the point of the bit. DRILLING METAL Use clamps to hold the work when drilling in metal. The work should never be held in the bare hand; the lips of the drill may seize the work at any time, especially when breaking through the stock. If the workpiece is whirled out of the operator's hand, he may be injured. The drill will be broken when the work strikes the column. The work must be clamped firmly while drilling; any tilting, twisting or shifting results not only in a rough hole, but also increases drill breakage. For flat work, lay the piece on a wooden base and clamp it firmly down against the table to prevent it from turning. If the piece is of irregular shape and cannot be laid flat on the table, it should be securely blocked and clamped. 14 NOTES 15 ACCESSORIES A complete line of accessories is available from your Delta Supplier, Porter-Cable • Delta Factory Service Centers, and Delta Authorized Service Stations.
