OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not insert drill bit into chuck jaws and tighten as
shown in figure 17. This could cause drill bit to be
thrown from your drill resulting in possible serious
personal injury or damage to your chuck.
 Tighten chuck jaws securely. DO NOT use a wrench to
tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
NOTE: The force of drilling will tighten the chuck.
To remove bits:
 Unplug your drill press.
 Reverse above steps while holding bit firmly.
NOTE: If chuck is too tight to loosen by hand, use either
a strap or spanner wrench to loosen.
USING THE WORKLIGHT
See Figure 18, page 21.
Swivel the worklight to desired position to shine maximum
light on the workpiece.
 Press the worklight on/off switch to the left to turn ON
( l ).
 Press the worklight on/off switch to the right to turn OFF
(O).
POSITIONING TABLE AND WORKPIECE
See Figures 18 and 19, page 21.
 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 backup material (wood, plywood,
etc.) on the table underneath the workpiece. This will
prevent "splintering" or making a heavy burr on the
underside on the workpiece as the drill breaks through.
 To keep the backup material from spinning out of control,
it must contact the left side of the column, as illustrated.
NOTE: For small pieces that cannot be clamped to the
table, use a drill press vise (not included).
WARNING:
The vise must be clamped or bolted to the table
to reduce the risk of injury from spinning work and
vise or tool breakage.
MARKING 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 drill down to the
workpiece lining it up with the hole location.
DRILLING
 Pull 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 rapidly might stop the motor, cause the belt
or drill to slip, tear the workpiece loose or break the drill
bit.
 When drilling metal, it may be necessary to lubricate the
tip of the drill bit with cutting oil or motor oil to prevent
burning of the drill tip.
DRILLING TO A SPECIFIC DEPTH
See Figure 20, page 22.
To drill a blind hole (not all the way through) to a given depth,
proceed as follows.
 Mark the depth of the hole on the workpiece.
 Loosen the depth scale lock.
 With the switch OFF (O), bring the drill bit down until the
tip of lip of the bit are even with the mark.
 Turn the depth scale counterclockwise until it stops
moving.
 Tighten the depth scale lock.
 The drill bit will stop at this depth until the depth scale is
readjusted.
DRILLING USING THE DEPTH SCALE
See Figure 21, page 22.
 With the power OFF (O), loosen the depth scale lock and
turn the depth scale counterclockwise to zero.
 Place workpiece on table. Adjust table until the tip of the
drill bit is just a little above the top of the workpiece.
 Turn the depth scale clockwise until the depth scale
indicator points to the desired drilling depth on the depth
scale.
 Tighten the depth scale lock.
 The chuck or drill will now be stopped after traveling
downward the distance selected on the depth scale.
TO LOCK CHUCK AT DESIRED DEPTH
See Figure 22, page 22.
 With the switch OFF (O), loosen the depth scale lock.
 Turn the feed handles until the chuck is at the desired
depth. Hold feed handles at this position.
 Turn the depth scale clockwise until it stops.
 Tighten the depth scale lock.
 The chuck will now be held at this depth when the feed
handles are released.
