Operation
Warning: Avoid personal injuries. Before operating this machine, review all Safety Warn-
ings and Precautions listed on pages 2 through 5.
1. Make sure the Drill Press is OFF and the Power Cord (33) is unplugged. Loosen the
Lock Handle Support (C2) and adjust the Table height to accommodate the workpiece
being drilled. Retighten Lock Support Handle.
2. Open the Chuck (B8) and insert the drill bit in the center. Tighten with the Chuck Key.
3. Secure the workpiece (and backup material) to the Table using a vise and/or clamp.
The workpiece sits on the backup material which in typically a scrap piece of wood
used to stabilize the workpiece. It also helps the drill make a cleaner hole. To keep it
from spinning, have it touching the left side of the Column.
4. Bring the drill bit down with the Feed Knob (12) to where the hole is to be drilled.
Make minor workpiece alignment adjustments.
5. Plug the Power Cord (33) into an electrical outlet.
6. Insert the Switch Key (24) into the Locking Switch (21).
Warning: Wear an ANSI approved, full face shield while drilling any type of material.
7. Push the Switch up to turn the Motor ON.
8. Pull down on the Feed Knob and slowly drill the hole into the workpiece.
Warning: If the drill bit grabs and spins the workpiece, do not attempt to stop the spin-
ning with your hands. Step back, and push the Switch down to the OFF position. Wait
for the spindle to stop turning before dislodging the workpiece.
9. When the drilling is complete, press the Switch to the OFF position and remove the
Switch Key (Keep the Switch Key in a safe place).
