To drill a workpiece:
1. Refer to Controls on Page 4 to understand
the functions of each control.
This drill press is designed for vertical drilling and
tapping operations. For repeated drilling at the
same depth, there is a power downfeed mecha-
nism. For tapping convenience, there is an auto-
matic clutch used for reversing the direction of the
spindle while in tapping mode by pressing one of
the buttons at the ends of each course downfeed
handle.

Overloading tools or using excessive spin-
dle speeds may cause parts or broken tools
to hit operator, resulting in serious impact
injuries.

can cause tool chatter. For maximum spindle
rigidity, keep the spindle retracted into the
headstock as far as possible.
