Headstock

The headstock must be tightened in position with two set screws, so the headstock is aligned with the drill press foot for balance and weight distribution. DO NOT over tighten the set screws and strip the threads or bend the col- umn.

GET assistance before beginning the next step. The headstock is an awk- ward and heavy load.

To install the headstock, do these steps:

1.With an assistant, position the pocket over the column (Figure 16) and allow the headstock to slide down until the col- umn fully seats up and into the headstock (approximately 31⁄2").

Tip: Place a few drops of multi-purpose grease on the column to help the head- stock seat more easily.

2.Align the headstock directly over the foot of the base as viewed from the front of the drill press and center it using a plumb bob and ruler (see Figure 17).

3.Tighten the two set screws to secure the headstock to the column (see Figure 18).

4.Install the belt cover knob with the includ- ed Phillips head screw (see Figure 16).
