5. The Drill Press is now set to drill holes to your pre-determined depth, provided the
surface of the workpiece is flat and level. You may also drill a series of holes to the
same depth.
To Operate The Drill Press:
1. Before starting the Drill Press, make
sure all adjustments are properly made
and all of the guards are in place.
2. Insert the drill bit about 1” into the jaws
of the Chuck (part #8C). Make sure the
jaws of the Chuck do not touch the
flutes of the drill bit. Before tightening
the Chuck, make sure the drill bit is
centered within the jaws of the Chuck.
3. Make sure the workpiece is securely
clamped, held in a drill press vise, or
bolted to the Drill Press Table (part #9A).
Never hold the workpiece with bare
hands as personal injury and/or damage
to the Drill Press may occur.
4. When drilling completely through
wooden material, place a piece of scrap
wood between the workpiece and the
Table to prevent splintering on the underside of the workpiece when the drill bit
breaks through. The scrap wood should make contact with the left side of the
Column (part #1A) (See Figure F.)
