USING THE FENCE (FIG. V)
The fence provides a way of accurately and quickly
setting up the workpiece for precision or for repitive
drilling operations.
1. Using a centerpunch or sharp nail, make an
indentation in the workpiece where you want to dril!.
2. Align the laser lines (x) with the indentation on the
workpiece.
3. Loosen the knobs (1) and slide the fence back stop (2)
firmly against the long side of the workpiece. Tighten
the knobs when in position.
4. Loosen the wing nut (3) and slide the end stop (4)
along the fence until it is firmly against the left side of
the workpiece. Tighten the wing nut.
5. Check the accuracy by drilling into a scrap workpiece
first. Adjust if needed.
6. Hold with your hand or clamp the top surface of the
workpiece firmly to prevent it from lifting off the table
when the bit is raised.

DRILLING TO A SPECtFJC DEPTH
Drilling a blind hole (not all the way through workpiece)
to a given depth can be done two ways:
Workpieee method (Fig. W and X}
1. Mark the depth (1) of the hole on the side of the
workpiece (Fig. W).
2. With the switch "OFF", bring the drill bit (2) down until
the tip is even with the mark (Fig. W)
3. Hold the feed handle at this position.
4. Spin the lower nut (3) down to contact the depth stop
lug (6) on the head (Fig. X).
5. Spin the upper nut (5) down and tighten against the
lower nut (3) (Fig. X).
6. The drill bit will now stop after traveling the distance
marked on the workpiece.

Depth seete method (Fig. X)
Note: With the chuck in the upper position, the tip of
the drill bit must be just slightly above the top of the
workpiece.
1. With the switch "OFF", turn the feed handle until the
pointer (7) points to the desired depth on the depth
scale (4) and hold the feed handle in that position.
2. Spin the lower nut (3) down to contact the depth stop
lug (6)_
3. Spin the upper nut (5) against against the lower stop
nut and tighten.
4. The drill bit will stop after traveling the distance
selected on the depth scale.
Drill mhole
Using a center punch or a sharp na{I, make an
indentation in the workpiece where you want to drill.
Turn on the laser assembly and align the laser lines (x)
with the indentation. Turn the power switch on and pul!
down on the feed handles with only enough effort to
allow the dril! to cut.
FEEDING TOO RAPIDLY might cause the belt or drill
to slip, tear the workpiece loose, or break the drill bit.
When driI!{ng metal, it will be necessary to lubricate the
tip of the drill bit with metal drilling oil to prevent it from
overheating.
