Using the Oscillator

One of the great features of the Model W1668 13 1⁄4'' Oscillating Drill Press is its sanding capa- bility. The drill press can be converted from drilling operations to sanding operations in just a few steps.

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Remove the spindle handles.

3.Lift the belt cover and remove the round belt located on the storage bracket under the speed chart, as shown in Figure 43.

4.Stretch the belt onto the top groove in the spindle and oscillating pulley, as shown in

Figure 44.

5.Close the cover. The motor will not start until the cover is closed.

6.Loosen the jam nut for the depth stop and adjust both nuts until they are positioned at the top of the depth stop rod. Tighten the jam nut (see Figure 45).

NOTICE

ALWAYS back-off the depth stop completely and secure the depth stop nuts before using the oscillating feature. If the depth stop is left adjusted for a shallow hole, or the nuts rattle down to the stop while in operation, the depth stop will bottom out and break the oscillator.
