⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press
OPERATIONS
To change drill bits and sanding drums, do
these steps:
1. UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!
2. Use the chuck key to open the chuck wide
enough to accept the new bit or the sand-
ing drum mandrel (see Figure 40).
3. Install the bit or mandrel so the chuck jaws
will grab as much of the bit or mandrel
shank as it can.
• If you are installing a small drill bit, make
sure it is held between three jaws instead
of only two, and NEVER allow a chuck to
grab the fluted body of drill bits.
• If you are installing the sanding drum,
install the paper and drum before install-
ing the spindle into the drill chuck (con-
tact your local
SHOP FOX
®
dealer for
drums and paper).
4. Tighten the chuck with the chuck key,
using any of the three key end locations.
(see Figure 41).
5. Choose the insert that has an opening
which is approximately
1
⁄4" bigger than the
sanding drum chosen. For drilling, always
use the table insert (see Figure 42) with
the smallest opening. A table insert is not
needed when a 2" drum is used.
6. Install the chosen table insert into the
pocket in the top of the table.
7. Remove the chuck key and reconnect the
power source.
8. Reverse these steps to remove the drill bit
or sanding drum.
NEVER troubleshoot or
adjust the machine while
it is running. Wait until
the machine is turned off,
unplugged and all working
parts have come to a stop
before proceeding!
