Hold-Down Clamps
The hold-down clamps are used to hold the cabi-
net door firmly against the table and fence during
boring operations. They are adjustable to accom-
modate the thickness of the cabinet door, which is
typically between
5
⁄
8
" and
3
⁄
4
" thick.
To adjust the hold-downs:
1. DISCONNECT BORING MACHINE FROM
POWER!
2. Loosen the cap screw and set screw (see
Figure 27) and adjust the hold-down so the
foot just touches the cabinet door and the
handle is parallel to the table, then push the
handle down to check clamping pressure.
Adjust as necessary until correct.
3. Secure the cap screw and set screw, then
recheck clamping pressure.
Note: If the foot presses too loose or too tight
against the board, loosen the hex nut above
the foot, and adjust the foot as needed, then
tighten the hex nut against the foot.
