shown. The drill bit should be parallel to the straight

4.

edge of the square.

 

 

If an adjustment is needed, loosen the bevel lock (5)

with a wrench.

 

Square the table to the bit by tilting the table.

6.

Tighten the bevel lock bolt (5) when square.

 

Drilling depth (Fig. 21)

 

 

 

 

 

1. To stop the drill at a specific depth for consistent and

 

 

 

 

1

repetitive drilling, loosen the depth scale lock (1)

FIG. 21

 

 

 

located on the depth scale hub (2).

 

 

 

 

 

2. Turn the hub until the pointer (3) is aligned to the

 

 

 

 

 

desired depth on the scale.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Tighten the depth scale lock (1). the chuck will stop

 

 

 

 

 

after traveling downward to the distance selected.

Note: All the necessary adjustments for the working of

 

 

2

 

your drill press have been done at the factory. Please

 

 

 

 

do not modify them. However, because of normal wear

 

 

 

 

 

and tear of your tool, some readjustments might be

 

 

 

 

 

necessary.

 

 

 

 

 

Spindle return spring (Fig. 22)

 

 

 

 

 

The spindle is equipped with an auto-return mechanism.

 

 

 

 

 

The main components are a spring and a notched

 

 

 

 

 

housing. The spring was properly adjusted at the factory

FIG. 22

 

 

 

 

and should not be readjusted unless absolutely

necessary. If it needs to be adjusted, proceed as

 

 

 

follows:

 

 

 

2

 

1. Unplug the drill press.

 

 

 

5

2. Place a screwdriver into the loop (1) to hold the

 

 

 

 

spring in place.

3

 

 

 

 

3. Loosen the two housing nuts (2) approximately 1/4"

 

 

 

 

(6 mm). Do not remove the nuts from the threaded

 

 

 

 

 

shaft.

 

 

 

 

 

4. While firmly holding the spring housing (3), carefully

 

 

 

 

 

pull it out until it clears the raised notch (4). Turn it until

 

 

 

 

 

the next notch (5) is engaged with the raised notch (to

 

 

 

 

 

increase the tension, turn it counterclockwise; to

 

 

 

 

 

decrease the tension, turn it clockwise). Tighten the two

 

 

 

 

 

housing nuts.

 

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT! Do not overtighten the two nuts. If the

 

 

 

 

 

nuts are tightened too much, the movement of the

 

 

 

 

 

spindle and feed handles will be sluggish.
