ADJUSTING THE LASER LINE
NOTE: Laser pointer (1) is an alternative part . Your
machine may not have this laser pointer.
How to check and adjust the Laser Beam Alignment:
Check the laser beam alignment to ensure the intersec-
tion of the laser lines precisely at the spot
where the drill bit meets the workpiece. If it is not,
the laser lines should be adjusted using the laser ad-
justment knobs located on the opposite sides of
the head assembly. See Fig. 16
1. Mark an "X" on a piece of scrap wood.
2. Insert a small drill bit into the chuck and align its tip to
the intersection of the lines of the "X".
3. Secure the board to the table.
4. Turn on the laser switch(3) and verify the laser lines
align with the "X" on the workpiece.
5. If the laser lines do not align, loosen knobs(2) on each
side of the laser module and rotate the lasers(4) until
the lines meet in the center of the "X". Retighten the
knobs to secure.
NOTE: Check and adjust the laser beam alignment every
time the drill press table is raised or lowered to a new
position.
