6.2.3 Arbor and chuck
1. Thoroughly clean entire arbor and inside of
chuck (Figure 6-15) with a soft rag and solvent,
such as mineral spirits. Any grease or residue
in these areas can cause the pieces to
separate, creating a safety hazard and potential
damage to the tool.
Figure 6-15
2. Slide arbor up into spindle.
3. Firmly push chuck by hand onto taper of arbor.
4. Use chuck key to completely retract jaws (to
prevent damage to jaws). Use two or three
sharp taps from a rubber mallet, or a hammer
and a block of wood, against bottom of chuck to
seat chuck securely onto arbor.
Do not use a steel hammer
directly against chuck, as this may damage
chuck.
7.0 Electrical connections
Electrical connections must be
made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. This machine must be
properly grounded to help prevent electrical
shock and possible fatal injury.
The PM2820EVS drill press is rated and prewired
for 120V power. The drill press comes with a plug
designed for use on a circuit with a grounded outlet
that looks like the one pictured in A , Figure 14.
Before connecting to power source, be sure switch
is in
off position.
It is recommended that the drill press be connected
to a dedicated, minimum 20 amp circuit with circuit
breaker or time-delay fuse marked “D”.
Local
codes take precedence over recommendations.
7.1 Grounding instructions
1. All Grounded, Cord-connected Tools:
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 tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into 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
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
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 service personnel if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded. Failure to comply may cause serious
or fatal injury.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn
cord immediately.
2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use
on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
less than
150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in
A, Figure
14. An adapter, shown in B and C , may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in
B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.
This adapter is not permitted in
Canada. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the
like, extending from the adapter must be connected
to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box.
