5.Make sure the power cord and wires have slack between the strain relief and terminal connections so that they do not bind, then tighten the strain relief to secure the cord.
Note: The strain relief must be tightened against the outer jacket of the cord. Avoid
6.Test the strain relief to ensure it is properly tightened by pulling the cord from outside the box with
7.Install a NEMA
8.Close and secure the main electrical box door.
9.Plug the power cord into a power source with a matching receptacle, as specified in Circuit Requirements for 220V on Page 10.
Note: If you discover during the Test Run that the drill press will not operate, or that the spindle runs backwards, the drill press may be wired out of phase.
Correcting the phase polarity requires reversing the positions where the L1 and L3 wires are con- nected. Due to the high voltage and risk of serious shock involved, we strongly recommend this pro- cedure only be done by an electrician or qualified service personnel.
Test Run
Once the preceding setup procedures are com- plete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular operation.
The test run consists of verifying the following:
1)The motor powers up and runs correctly, 2) the EMERGENCY STOP button and chip guard safety features work correctly, and 3) the motor rotates in the correct direction (machine is not wired out of phase).
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 35.
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570)
Before starting the drill press, make sure you have performed the preceding setup instructions, and you have read through the rest of the manual and are familiar with the various functions and safety features on this machine. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury or even death!
To test run the machine:
1.Make sure all tools and objects used during setup are cleared away from the machine.
2.Make sure the machine is properly lubricated.
3.Turn the Master Power Switch (Figure 11) ON.
