ADJUSTMENTS

FIG. 8

8. 

DEPTH STOP:

 The depth stop and scale are 

    found on the left side of the switch box. To 

    adjust, lower the drill chuck until the pointer    

    shows your desired depth on the scale

    Loosen the lower nut on the threaded shaft     

    

(FIG. 7, A) until it bottoms out on the head      

    casting (B). Tighten upper nut against the    

    lower nut to retain the adjustment.

9. 

TABLE TILT: 

The drill press table will tilt 0-45 

    degrees left and right. To tilt, loosen the nut 

    located under the table (FIG. 8, A). Align the 

    “zero” mark on the table (FIG. 9, B) to the    

    desired degree marking on the scale. 

    Tighten the nut

    under the table

    to retain the

    adjustment.

10. SPINDLE RETURN SPRING:

 

The Chuck will

    automatically return upward to its

 original     

    starting position when the operating handle is   

    released. The Return Spring Mechanism, FIG.      

    10, has been preset at the factory and should  

    not require any adjustments. 

However, should

    the spring tension decline and need     

 

    adjustment, follow these steps;
    A.  Disconnect the Drill Press from its power   

    source.
    B.  Loosen the 2 Spring Cover Nuts (A), but   

    DO NOT REMOVE the nuts from the threaded  

    pin.
    C.  Carefully pull out the Spring Cover (B)   

    slightly, and keep a firm grasp on it - DO NOT  

    LET THE COVER SPIN as it keeps the spring

    from unwinding. Also, DO NOT let the spring   

    end (C) disengage from its notch in the cover!
    D.  Pull out the cover just enough so that the  

    notch in the cover clears the nub on the head  

    casting (D).

E.  Rotate the cover to another notch as needed;    

    - 

CLOCKWISE to decrease the spring tension,     

    - 

COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to increase spring  

       tension.
F.  With the cover in the new position, push it back               

    in place and tighten the spring cover nuts back    

    against the cover to complete the adjustment.
