7.
The rack (1) fits under the rack ring (4). Make sure there is enough clearance between the rack
and the ring to allow the table to rotate around the column.
8.
Tighten the set screw (5) to hold the ring in position.
9.
Attach the handle (1) by tightening the set screw (2).
(Figure 7)

(Figure 8)
11.
Rotate the table and position it directly above and on line with the base.
Drill press head to the column (Fig. 9)
1.
Lift the drill press head carefully and position it above the column. If the head is too heavy for
you to handle, lift it into position with the help of another person.
2.
The column fits into the drill press mounting hole. Make sure the mounting hole is properly
seated on the column. Line the drill press head up with the table and base and tighten the two set
screws using the hex key.
Feed handle (Fig. 10)
1.
Thread the three rods into the feed hub (1).
2.
Tighten round knobs (2) to the end of the rods.
Pulley cover (Fig. 11)
1.
Insert a washer and a screw through the hole in the pulley cover.
2.
Thread the knob onto the screw and tighten.
Installing the arbor and chuck (Fig. 12)
1.
Slide the long end of the arbor (1) into the spindle (2) as far as it will go.
2.
Slide the chuck (3) onto the end of the arbor (1). Open the jaws of the chuck completely.
3.
To seat the chuck on the arbor, place a block of wood under the chuck and tap the wood with a
rubber hammer. NOTE: To avoid damaging the chuck, do not use a metal hammer to drive the
chuck onto the arbor.
Removing the chuck (Fig. 13)
1.
Use the feed handles to lower the chuck to the lowest position, exposing the spindle sleeve (1).
The spindle sleeve has a large oval hole (2) on both sides.
2.
Turn the chuck (3) until the spindle hole (4) lines up with the hole in the spindle sleeve.
3.
Insert the wedge (5) and tap lightly with a hammer.
4.
The arbor and chuck will drop from the spindle.
Mounting the drill press (Fig. 14)
1.
The drill press must be securely fastened by the two base holes (1) to a stand or a workbench
with heavy-duty fasteners. This will prevent the drill press from tipping over, sliding or walking
during operation. IMPORTANT: If the stand or workbench has a tendency to move during op-
eration, fasten it securely to the floor.
