OPERATION
4. Loosen the wing nut (3) and slide the end stop (4) along the
fence until it is firmly against the left side of the workpiece.
Tighten the wing nut.
5. Check the accuracy by drilling into a scrap workpiece first.
Adjust if needed.
6. Hold with your hand or clamp the top surface of the
workpiece firmly to prevent it from lifting off the table
when the bit is raised.

DRILLING TO A SPECIFIC DEPTH
Drilling a blind hole (not all the way through workpiece) to a
given depth can be done two ways:
Workpiece method (Fig. W and x)
1. Mark the depth (1) of the hole on the side of the
workpiece (Fig. W).
2. With the switch "OFF", bring the drill bit (2) down until the
tip is even with the mark (Fig. W).
3. Hold the feed handle at this position.
4. Spin the lower nut (3) down to contact the depth stop lug
(6) on the head (Fig. x).
5. Spin the upper nut (5) down and tighten against the lower
nut (3) (Fig. x).
6. The drill bit will now stop after traveling the distance
marked on the workpiece.

Depth scale method (Fig. x)
Note: With the chuck in the upper position, the tip of the drill
bit must be just slightly above the top of the workpiece.
1. With the switch "OFF", turn the feed handle until the
pointer (7) points to the desired depth on the depth scale
(4) and hold the feed handle in that position.
2. Spin the lower nut (3) down to contact the depth
stop lug (6).
3. Spin the upper nut (5) against against the lower stop nut
and tighten.

4. The drill bit will stop after traveling the distance selected
on the depth scale.
Drill a hole
Using a center punch or a sharp nail, make an indentation in
the workpiece where you want to drill. Turn on the laser as-
sembly and align the laser lines (x) with the indentation. Turn
the power switch on and pull down on the feed handles with
only enough effort to allow the drill to cut.
FEEDING TOO RAPIDLY might cause the belt or drill to slip,
tear the workpiece loose, or break the drill bit. When drilling
metal, it will be necessary to lubricate the tip of the drill bit
with metal drilling oil to prevent it from overheating.

in the "OFF" position, the switch key is removed, and the
plug is not connected to the power source outlet before
removing or installing the chuck.
