are thrown out.
3. When transporting the machine please use caution. If using a sling have someone
steady the machine while moving.
4. Install your drill press on a sturdy level floor surface. It must be anchored to the floor; the
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 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. Check for damaged parts before further use of the machine. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be replaced or repaired before use. Carefully check to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts and binding od moving parts. Breakage of parts or mountings and or any other
conditions that could be affect its operation.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk or electrical shock. This machine is equipped with an electric
cord must be used with a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
•Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet have the proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
•Improper connection of the equipment grounding can result in a risk of electrical 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.
•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.
•It is not recommended to use an extension cord on the machine. If one must be used,
use only a grounded cord on the machine and length of run needed.
•Repaired or replace damaged or worn cords immediately.

OPERATION
TAPPING OPERATIONS USING REVERSE FEATURE
1. Drill the initial hole on the drill press for accuracy of diameter.
2. Make sure the hole had a large enough chamfer. If the chamfer is too small the tap will
have to work a little harder when starting the tapping operation.
3. Select tap type. Choose from a taper tap (recommended), plug tap or bottoming tap. The
taper has several chamfer threads forming a tapered cone on the inserting end. The plug
tap has fewer chamfer threads and a bottoming tap only has a couple chamfer threads.
4. Match the tap size. Use the specified tap size to thread the hole diameter. Taps that are
sold with drill bits are size matched. The taps themselves may show the hole size they’re
intended for but is likely to be given in metric notation. Use a conversion chart to match
this with the standard fraction measured drill bits.
5. Cut the threads. Lubricate the tap with tapping fluid. Start the drill press and lower the tap
gently in to the hole to be threaded. It only takes a few seconds to tap. When the tap gets
to the desired depth reverse the direction of the spindle and the tap will work its way out,
as long as it has been set up properly.
Tips for tapping:
•Tapping takes practice to do it well and not to break taps. If you’re new to tapping
practice on sample stock before tapping in to the actual material.
•Materials have differing requirements for drill speed and lubrication.
•Hole depths and diameters may present additional drilling requirements.
•Refer to the material charts for drilling specifications.
DRILL/CHUCK INSTALLATION
1. Before inserting drill bits, chucks, or arbors always clean out the spindle hole and taper
hole with a clean cloth.
2. Open chuck jaws completely by turning attached chuck key counter-clockwise until the
jaws are fully opened.
3. To install the chuck to the arbor tightly, slide the chuck into the taper forcing it into the
spindle with by handle.
4. Place a block of wood on the table then lower the spindle to contact the wood and press
the chuck tightly into the spindle taper.
5. Install a taper shaft drill 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.

977600-1V 12 REV012021
INSTALLATION OF DRILL BIT
A drill bit with a shaft of at least 1” long should be used to allow correct chuck jaw contact. If the
shaft is under 1” do not insert bit as far into the chuck where it allows jaw contact with the 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 shaft diameter bit size for the machine.
TOOLING REMOVAL
1. Before removing the chuck or bit form the machine be sure the spindle has come to
complete stop and power is off.
2. If needed rotate spindle by hand to align the spindle and quill openings.
3. Insert the wedge removal tool while supporting the tooling tap the wedge to remove the
tooling.
TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1. Loosen the clamp bolt then adjusting the table with the bracket handle to desired work
height.
2. Retighten the clamp securely when table is adjusted to desired height.
Note: Keep table adjustment rack clean from debris. Never attempt to move table with clamp
bolt tightened.

TABLE SWING ADJUSTMENT
1. To swing the table loosen the clamp release bolt and swing the table to the desired
position.
2. After table is in the correct position, tighten clamp release bolt securely.
Note: Never swing the table if any material or fixturing is on it. Only adjust when table is free
of loose articles.
FEED DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
1. Setting the feed depth adjustment is done by loosening the clamp bolt on the spindle
depth index sleeve.
2. Rotate to desired length, and securely tighten the clamp bolt.

WORK HOLDING
When drilling directly on the table surface it is recommended that a piece of wood or plywood be
clamped securely to the table under the work piece. This will minimize splintering or burring as
the drill breaks through the work. It will minimize drill bit and table damage. Clamp work piece to
the table whenever possible. The 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 the work piece safely.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
1. The speed can be changed using the spindle speed dial to achieve variable speeds
without having to change the belt position. Only do this when machine is running.
a. However, if the desired speed can not be achieved in the current belt position it
will need to be changed. Refer to the “Speed Adjustment Guide” next in this
manual for belt position speeds.
2. WARNING:Make sure the machine has come to a complete stop and turn power
off before adjusting speed via drive belt.
3. Open the pulley cover to expose the pulleys and drive belts.
4. Loosen the tension lock handles.
5. Choose the proper speed for drilling operation, “Speed Adjustment Guide”, next in this
manual.
6. Move belt to the correct step pulleys for desired speed.
7. Push the motor backwards until proper blade tension is applied, about 1/2" of deflection,
see illustration below.
8. Retighten belt tension lock handle.
Note: If center pulley bracket does not move freely loosen spring loaded bolts 1/2 to 3/4 of a
turn.
