bench or other stable surface. The mounting
board should be of sufficient size to avoid tip-
ping while drill press is in use. Any good grade
plywood or chip board with a 3/4 inch thickness
is recommended.
1. Mark holes on surface where drill press is to
be mounted using holes in drill press base as a
template for hole pattern.
2. Drill holes through mounting surface.
3. Place drill press on mounting surface, align-
ing holes in the base with holes drilled in the
mounting surface.
4. Insert bolts (fig.8-1) (not included) and tight-
en securely with lock washers and hex nuts (not
included).
5. If lag bolts are used,make sure they are long
enough to go through holes in drill press base
and material the drill press is being mounted
to. If machine bolts are used make sure bolts
are long enough to go through holes in drill
press,the material being mounted to,and the
lock washers and hex nuts.
NOTE: all bolts should be inserted from the top.
Install the lock washers and hex nuts from the
underside of the workbench.

Once the drill press is securely mounted on a
sturdy surface:
• Check for vibration when the motor is
switched ON.
• Adjust and retighten the mounting hardware
as necessary.
• Check the table assembly to assure smooth
movement up and down the column.
• Check to assure that the spindle shaft moves
smoothly.
CHECKING/ADJUSTING LASER ALIGNMENT
Check the laser alignment to ensure the inter-
section of the laser lines is precisely at the spot
where the drill bit meets the workpiece. If it is
not,the laser lines should be adjusted.
• Mark an "X" on a piece of scrap wood.
• Insert a small drill bit into the chuck and align
its tip to the intersection of the lines of the "X".
• Secure the board to the table.
•Turn on the laser and verify the laser lines align
with the "X" on the workpiece.

• If the laser lines do not align,loosen the set
screws on each of the laser housings with a hex
key and rotate the laser until the lines meet in
the center of the "X".
•Retighten the set screws to secure.

WARNING: do not allow familiarity with
tools to make you careless. Remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficient to in-
flict serious injury.
WARNING: always wear eye protection with
side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Failure to do so could result in objects being
thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible seri-
ous injury.
WARNING: do not use any attachments or
accessories not recommended by the manufac-
turer of this tool. The use of attachments or ac-
2
cessories not recommended can result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING: to prevent the workpiece or the
backup material from being torn from your
hand while drilling, position them against the
left side of the column. If the workpiece or the
backup material are not long enough to reach
the column, clamp them to the table. Failure to
do this could result in personal injury.
