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).
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.
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
over-tightening the strain relief or it may
crush the cord and cause a short.
6. Test the strain relief to ensure it is properly
tightened by pulling the cord from outside the
box with light-to-moderate force. When the
strain relief is properly tightened, the cord will
not move inside the cabinet.
7. Install a NEMA 15-15 plug on the other end
of the power cord per the plug manufacturer's
instructions.
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.
