1. UNCRATING AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION
INSTALLATION OF DRILL PRESS
MACHINE IS TOP HEAVY!
1. Location of the drill press should be in a well lit area with correct
power supply and that will not interfere with other machines or
operations.
2. Carefully uncrate machine from crate. Inspect all packing as not
to throw out any parts or manuals.
3. When transporting the machine please use caution. If using a
sling have someone steady the machine while transporting it.
4. Install your drill press on a sturdy level floor surface, or work
bench. (TB-16) The machine must be anchored to the floor or
workbench securely. Machine is top heavy.
5. Connect appropriate power to the machine. Make sure circuit
breakers are suitable for the machine. Consult local codes for
proper installation of machine. Always route power cables in a
safe manner away from traffic areas, damp areas, heat and
moving parts.
6. After installing the drill press, use the kerosene or degreasing
product to clean off the anti-rust oil which was applied at the
factory. Then wipe machined surfaces with a light coating of
lubricant oil. (Way oil)
7. Read rest of the owners manual before operating this machine.
Review and understand all safety instructions.

safety instructions that apply to most machinery.
Operation of the drill press incorrectly, or in a
dangerous fashion can result in serious injury
or death.
Operation of the drill press incorrectly, or in a
dangerous fashion can result in damage to
machine or it’s components and to the cutting
tool.
Instructions for safe drill press use.
Intend use:
The DRILL PRESS is designed to for drilling or boring operations. Caution is
required when operating the drill press because it can be dangerous due to
the high spindle rotation speed. Operation hazards such as entanglement,
shearing, ejection parts, etc. Guards such as pulley cover and chuck guard

5. VOLTAGE WARNING
WARNING
6. GROUNDING INSTRUCTION
VOLTAGE
WARNING
1. Before connecting the machine to a power source (receptacle, outlet…
etc.) Know your incoming voltage supply. (220, 208 etc.)
2. A power source with voltage greater than that specified for the machine
can result in serous injury to the user, and machine damage.
3. Using a power source with voltage less than that of the machines rating
can damage the motor and other components.
4. If you are unsure of the voltage rating do not use the machine.
CAUTION
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTION
1. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This machine is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment
grounding conductor. The proper plug must be used with a matching
outlet that it is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
2. For 120 volt models do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
3. Improper connection of the equipment grounding can result in a risk of
electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that
is green with yellow stripes is equipment grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as whether the
machine is properly grounded.
5. It is not recommended to use an extension cord on this machine. If one
must be used, use only a grounded cord of proper size for machine and
length of run needed.
6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cords immediately.

7. OPERATION (PROCEDURE) Drill / Chuck Installation:
To show greater detail
chuck guard is in the open position in POWER MUST BE OFF BEFORE
photos. CHUCK GUARD MUST IN MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS!
PLACE DURING OPERATION! TURN POWER OFF! Before inserting
drill bits, chucks or arbors, always clean
out spindle hole and taper hole with a
clean cloth.
Open chuck jaws completely by turning
attached chuck key counter-clockwise
until the jaws are fully opened.
To install the chuck to the arbor tightly,
slide the chuck into the taper forcing it
into the spindle with by hand. Place a
block of wood on the table then lower the
spindle to make contact with the wood
and press the chuck tightly into the
spindles taper.
Install a taper shaft drill bit into the taper
the same way as you would the chuck. If
an adaptor is used it must fit the taper
correctly and the bit must fit snug in the
adaptor.
Table lock Table height adjustment:
Table height adjustment is
accomplished by loosening the clamp
bolt then adjusting the table with the
bracket handle to desired height.After
table is at working height, retighten
the clamp bolt securely.
Note: Keep table adjustment rack
clean from debris. Never attempt to
move table with clamp bolt tightened.
Table handle

10
Table tilting adjustment:
Using an adjustable or box wrench
loosen table level lock bolt. Carefully tilt
the table to the degree needed, as read
on the angle index scale located on the
table rotation point. Retighten nut
securely.
Note: Never tilt table if any material or
fixturing is on it. Only make adjustments
when table is free of loose articles.
Table swing adjustment:
To swing the table up to 360 degrees,
loosen the clamp release bolt and swing
table to the desired position. After the
table is in the correct position tighten
clamp release bolt securely.
Note: Never swing table if any material or
fixturing is on it. Only make adjustments
when table is free of loose articles.
Feed depth adjustment:
Setting the feed depth adjustment is
done by loosening the clamp bolt on the
spindle depth index sleeve and rotating
it to the desired depth.
Retighten clamp bolt securely.
Note: Never make this or other
adjustments when machine is running.

11
TURN P POWER OFF!
Wait until machine has come to a
complete stop before proceeding with
speed change!
Speed adjustment:
Open the pulley cover to expose the
pulleys and drive belts.
Loosen the belt tension lock handles.
Choose the proper speed for the drilling
operation. Move the belt to the correct
step of the pulleys for the desired speed.
(See diagram on page 12) Push the
motor backwards until proper belt
tension is applied. (1/2” deflection as
shown below speed selection chart in
this manual) Retighten belt tension lock
handle. NOTE: If center pulley bracket
does not move freely, loosen spring
loaded bolts ½ - ¾ turns.
Installation of drill bits in the chuck:
A drill bit with a shaft of at least 1” long
should be used to allow correct chuck jaw
contact. If shaft length is under 1” do not
insert bit as far into the chuck where it
allows jaw contact with drill flutes.
Center drill bit into the chuck and tighten
the chuck securely with the chuck key.
Note: Always use sharp, straight bits.
Never use bits with turned down shafts.
Never exceed the maximum diameter bit
size for the machine.
Always wear appropriate clothing while
operating the drill press.
All guards and interlocks must be in place
when operating the machine.

Wedge removal tool

12
Tooling removal:
Before removing the chuck or bit from the
machine, be sure the spindle has come to
a complete stop and power is off. If needed
rotate spindle by hand to align the spindle
and quill openings. Insert the wedge
removal tool, while supporting the tooling
tap the wedge to remove the tooling.
Work holding:
When drilling directly on table surface, it is recommended that a
piece of wood or plywood be clamped securely to table under the
work piece. This will minimize splintering or burring as drill breaks
through work. It will help minimize drill bit and table damage.
Clamp work piece to the table when ever possible. Table has “T”
slots that allow for many different clamping configurations.
When part cannot be affixed to the table a drill vise that is bolted to
the table must be used to hold work piece safely.
8. MAINTENANCE OF MACHINE
MAINTENANCE
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
1. On a regular basis blow out any dust that may accumulate inside
the motor. (Frequency depends on environment the machine is
in)
2. Acoat of automotive wax applied to the table and column will help
to keep the surface clean.
3. If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have it
replaced immediately.
4. All of the ball bearings are packed with grease at the factory. They
require no further lubrication.
5. Periodically lubricate the gear and rack table elevation
mechanism, the spindle splines and the rack (teeth on the quill).
6. After each use the machine should be cleaned. Weekly
lubrication of all sliding or moving parts with light weight or way oil
is recommended. For your own safely, turn switch “OFF” and
remove plug from power source outlet before maintaining or
lubricating your drill press.
