ADJUSTMENTS
Bevel Adjustment
See Figures 11 and 12.
Your drill press is equipped with a tilting table that allows you
to drill angled holes. The table can be tilted left or right, from
0-45 degrees.
To tilt the table, loosen the large hex bolt located underneath
the table. Use the bevel scale to tilt table to the desired angle,
then tighten hex bolt.
Table Rotation
See Figure 11.
When drilling large objects it may be necessary to swing the
table out of the way. Simply loosen the table lock lever, rotate
table, and retighten table lock lever.
Note: When using the base as a work surface, the workpiece
must be clamped securely to the base.
DEPTH STOP ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 13.
Where a number of holes are to be drilled to exactly the same
depth, the depth stop is used as follows.
Loosen scale set handle located on the feed shaft assembly
and rotate feed handle to desired spindle depth. Rotate depth
scale counterclockwise to positive stop. Retighten scale set
handle securely.
To set at a stationary depth, loosen scale set handle and
rotate feed handle to desired spindle depth. Rotate depth
scale clockwise to positive stop. Retighten scale set handle
securely. This will hold the spindle assembly stationary at
desired depth.
CHANGING SPEEDS
See Figure 14.
The spindle speed is determined by the location of the belt
on the pulleys in the pulley housing. The reference chart
located inside the pulley housing shows the recommended
speed and pulley configuration for each drilling operation.
To change the pulley configuration, refer to Figure 14 and
proceed as follows:
Loosen the two belt tension knobs located on either side of the
head assembly.
See Figure 2.
Push the motor assembly toward the front of the head
assembly to loosen the drive belt.
Open the pulley housing cover and reposition the belt
according to the speed chart. Close the housing cover.
Push motor firmly back to position assuring drive belt is tight.
While holding tension on motor, retighten the two belt tension
knobs securely.
See Figure 2.
