Installing/Removing

Drill Bits

Any drill bit you install in the chuck must be tight enough that it will not come loose during opera- tion.

To install a drill bit into the chuck:

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Open the chuck jaws wide enough to accept the drill bit shank.

3.Insert the drill bit as far as possible into the chuck WITHOUT allowing the chuck jaws to touch the fluted or cutting portion of the drill bit, then hand tighten the chuck.

Note: Make sure small drill bits are not trapped between the edges of two jaws. If they are, reinstall the drill bit properly before use.

4.Use the included chuck key to fully tighten the chuck around the drill bit.

To remove a drill bit from the chuck:

1.UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2.Use the chuck key to open the chuck, and catch the drill bit with a rag to protect your hands.

Changing Speeds

NOTICE

DO NOT attempt to change speeds unless the drill press is ON. Attempting to rotate the speed control when the drill press is OFF could damage the variable speed mechanism.

The Model G9749 drill press is capable of variable speeds from 300-2000 RPM. Refer to Choosing Speeds on Page 19 for the correct speed for the cutting tool and material being used.

To change speed of the drill press:

1.Turn the drill press ON.

2.Loosen the speed control locking knob (see Figure 14).

Note: Rotating the speed control helm too fast will greatly increase the wear on the drive belts and pulleys.

4.Tighten the speed control locking knob to hold the helm in place against machine vibra- tion.
