Adjusting the depth of the head
The travel limiter controls how far down the head can move towards the table top and into the stock.
If your holes are not deep enough or they are too deep you may need to make an adjustment to the
Travel Limiter bolt.
SOLUTION STEPS:
1. Locate the 1/2" hole just left of center in the bit cover on the top of the machine. You'll know you
have the right hole because when you look in it there will be a large phillips head screw inside.
2. Using a large phillips head screwdriver adjust the screw through the hole by a 1/2 turn at a time.
The adjustments can be made with the machine on or off, but should be made with the drill head UP.
3. To drill deeper turn the screw counter-clockwise 1/2 turn at a time. To drill to less depth turn the
screw clockwise 1/2 turn at a time.
4. If a loud rattling or clanking sound can be heard when the head is down, then the Travel Limiter
bolt has been adjusted to drill too deeply and should be backed off JUST until the sound stops. If this
adjustment ends up being made, then you may need to raise the tabletop to drill deeper.
