Headstock

To drill wide workpieces up to 34" in diam- eter, you can slide the headstock in and out to increase the distance between the drill chuck and the column up to 17". You can also tilt the headstock from 45° clockwise to 90° counterclockwise for drilling angled holes or for horizontal boring machine use. Using the slide and tilt features, you can drill a line of straight or angled holes without the need to reposition your workpiece after drilling each hole.

To use the headstock-sliding feature, do these steps:

1.Loosen the lock lever located on the right side of headstock (see Figure 31).

2.Turn the slide knob to move the headstock back and forth to desired position and then tighten the lock lever (see Figure 31).

To use the headstock-tilting feature, do these steps:

Note: If the scale is not calibrated, set the table to zero degrees, zero the headstock with the table, and then reposition the scale to zero degrees.

1.Loosen the lock handle on the right side of headstock (see Figure 31).

2.Pull out the guide pin knob located on the left side of the headstock and rotate the pin knob 90° so the pin stays disengaged from the horizontal column (see Figure 32).

3.While reading the tilt scale, tilt the head- stock to your desired angle and tighten lock lever (see Figure 31).

4.Drill your workpiece.

5.Loosen lock handle located on the right side of headstock, and tilt the headstock to zero and move the guide pin back into the guide slot.

6.Tighten the lock lever.
