Table Adjustments

The table can be adjusted to accommodate height of materials to be sanded or drilled. To adjust:

1.Loosen the table support bracket lock knob. Turn the table hand crank to raise or lower the table. Figure 27.

2.The table can be adjusted out of the way so the base of the drill press may be used to support the workpiece for drilling opera- tions only. Loosen the table lock knob and pivot the table to the back side of the col- umn. Figure 28.

3.The drill press is supplied with 4 table inserts. Always choose the insert whose opening is only slightly bigger than the sand- ing drum chosen. Figure 29. For drilling, always use the table insert with the small- est opening unless using a vise. Install the chosen table insert into the pocket provided in the top of the table.

4.The table should be adjusted so the opening in the installed table insert is centered to the drill bit or sanding drum. Loosen the table and pivot the table until the bit or drum is centered with the hole.

A table insert is not needed when sanding with a 2" drum.

Sanding Tip: To use all of the grit on the paper, adjust the table height as the paper wears. When the thickness of the workpiece does not allow much table movement, remove the drum from the sanding spindle, turn it end for end and replace it on the sanding spindle.

ADJUSTMENTS

Never sand or drill with- out the table for support and workpiece properly secured. Serious per- sonal injury may occur.
