OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DRILLING TO A SPECIFIC DEPTH
Drilling a blind hole (not all the way through workpiece)
to a given depth can be done by two ways:
Workpiece method (Fig. T, U)
• Mark the depth (1)
of the hole on the side
of the workpiece. (Fig. T)
• With the switch "OFF", bring
the drill bit (2)
down until the tip
is even with
the mark.
• Hold the feed handle
at this position.
• Spin the lower nut (3) down to contact the depth
stop lug (4). (Fig. U)
• Spin the upper nut (5) down and tighten against
the lower nut (3).
• The drill bit will now stop after traveling the distance
marked on the workpiece.
Depth scale method (Fig. U)
NOTE: With the chuck in
the upper position, the tip of
the drill bit must be just slightly
above the top of the workpiece.
• With the switch in the OFF
position, turn the feed handle
until the depth pointer (6) points
to the desired depth on
the depth scale (7)
and hold the feed
handle in that position.
• Spin the lower
nut (3) down to
3
contact the depth
stop lug (4).
• Spin the upper nut (5)
against the lower
nut (3) and tighten.
• The drill bit will stop
after traveling the distance
selected on the depth
scale (7).
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
assembly 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.
BASIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To get the best results and minimize the likelihood of personal
injury, follow these instructions for operating your drill press.
WARNING
For your own safety, always observe the SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS listed in this instruction manual
when operating the drill press.

POSITIONING THE TABLE AND WORKPIECE (FIG. V, W)
• 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).
• ALWAYS place a BACK-UP 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, it MUST be positioned against the LEFT side
of the column.
• For a small piece that cannot be clamped to the table, use
a drill press vise (optional accessory).
WARNING
To prevent the workpiece or backup material from
being thrown 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.
WARNING
A drill press vise
MUST be clamped
or bolted to
the table to
7
avoid injury
from a spinning
workpiece, or
damaged vise
or bit parts.

TILTING THE TABLE (FIG. X)
• Loosen the bevel lock bolt (1) with an adjustable wrench.
• Tilt the table (2) to the desired angle and tighten
the bevel lock bolt.
WARNING
• To prevent injury, be sure to hold the table & table
arm assembly, so it will not swivel or tilt.
• To avoid injury from
spinning work or tool
breakage, always
clamp workpiece
and backup material
securely to the table
before operating
the drill press.
TRANSPORTING THE DRILL PRESS (FIG. Y)
WARNING
The drill press is very heavy and MUST be
transported with the help of 2 people or more,
to safely move it.
