ADJUSTMENTS
Table Height / Tilt
You can adjust the table height and angle to accommodate for workpiece height or achieve special drilling/sanding angles. You can also move the table out of the way and use the drill press base as a table for drilling/sanding.
SUPPORT table before loosening lock knob. The weight of the table combined with the workpiece could result in a crushing injury.
To adjust the table, do these steps:
1.Hold onto the table with one hand and loosen the table lock knob. See Figure 24.
2.Lift or lower the table to the desired height, and then position the table so the opening in the installed table insert is cen- tered to the drill bit or sanding drum.
•If the table is not needed, pivot the table to the back side of the column so you can support the workpiece on the base (drilling operations only). See Figure 25.
3.Tighten the table lock knob.
4.Loosen the table tilt lock bolt and use the tilt scale to find your desired drilling or sanding angle. See Figure 26.
5.Tighten the tilt table lock bolt.
