Operating Instructions

Leveling The Drill Bits

Page 08

Note:

We recommend using a piece of card stock on the Table

when leveling the drill bits to avoid drilling into the drill strip.

This will lengthen the life of your drill bits and keep them

sharper.

Step #5

To level the Drill Bits:

Insert the Spindle Rotation Tool (FMM9-956A) into

the end of the motor shaft through the opening in the

top of the machine shroud.

Swing the access cover located on the front of the

heads to one side allowing access to the spindle and

chuck.

Turn the Spindle Rotation Tool by hand until the insert

retainer screw can be seen in the opening.

Stepping slowly on the foot pedal, raise the table so

that it meets the bottom of the pressure foot assem-

bly.

Using the 5/32” Hex Wrench (HEX-532-T), loosen the

insert retainer screw and lower the chuck by pulling

down on it until the drill bits meet the table surface.

When the drill bit is just touching the drill strip,

re-tighten the insert retainer screw.

Repeat steps 1 - 6 on the remaing Drill Bits so that

they are all level with each other.

Remove the Spindle Rotation Tool from the motor

shaft.

Replace the access covers so that they cover the

openings.
