OPERATION
POSITIONING THE TABLE AND WORKPIECE (FIG. x and Y)
1. Lock the table (1) to the column (2) at a position so the tip of
the drill bit (3) is just above the top of the workpiece (4).
2. ALWAYS place backup material (scrap wood) on the table
beneath the workpiece. This will prevent splintering or heavy
burring on the underside of the workpiece. To keep the back-
up material from spinning out of control, it MUST contact the
LEFT side of the column.
3. For a small piece that cannot be clamped to the table, use
a drill press vice (optional accessory).
WARNING:
To prevent the workpiece or backup material from be-
ing torn from your hands while drilling, you MUST
position the workpiece against the LEFT side of the
column. If the workpiece or the backup material is not
long enough to reach the column, clamp them to the
table, to brace the workpiece. Failure to secure the
workpiece could result in personal injury.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
For your own safety, turn the switch OFF and remove
the plug from the power source outlet before main-
taining or lubricating the drill press.
Frequently use an air compressor or vacuum to clear out ac-
cumulated dust in the motor.
A coat of automotive paste wax applied to the table and col-
umn will help to keep the surface clean
WARNING:
To avoid shock or fire hazard, if the power cord is worn
or cut in any way, have it replaced immediately.
WARNING:
The drill press vice MUST be clamped or bolted to the
table to avoid injury from a spinning workpiece, dam-
aged vice or bit parts
HOLDING A DRILLING LOCATION
1. Using a centrepunch or sharp nail, make an indentation in
the workpiece where you want the hole.
2. Using the feed handles, bring the drill down to align with
the indentation before turning the drill ON.
LUBRICATION
All of the drill press ball bearings are packed with grease at
the factory. They require no further lubrication.
Periodically, lubricate the elevation mechanism (rack and pin-
ion) and the teeth of the quill.
