HEAD ASSEMBLY
1. Carefully lift and place the drill press head onto the
top of the column. It should slip down until the column
stops against the inside end of the head casting hole.
Swivel the drill press head until it is in line with the base
and table. FIG. 5.
2. Secure the drill press head to the column by tight-
ening the two set screws (#2B) on the right side of the
head. FIG. 6, A.
3. Install the small, belt cover Handle Knob (#2, on
Parts Diagram C) onto the right side of the top lid.
Open the belt cover and insert the Phillips head screw
through the hole in the lid from the inside. Thread the
handle on the outside of the belt cover and tighten it
in place with a screwdriver. FIG. 6, B.
4. Install the three feed Handles (#67B) into the
pre-threaded holes in the Handle Seat (#68B). Use a
10mm or adjustable wrench (not supplied) to secure
the handles in place. FIG. 7.
NOTE:
Figures 6 & 7 also show the motor Lock
Knobs (#6B, C), Tension Lever (#5B, D) and the
motor Mount Assembly (E) that are referenced in the
section on Changing Belt Speeds on page 14.
5. On the left side of the drill press head, install the
small Motor Speed Handle (#39B) onto the Handle
Seat (#40B). The handle seat has 3 holes to allow the
handle to be inserted into the one that is best posi-
tioned for your grasping and rotating to change the
operating speeds of the machine. FIG. 8.
Assistance is needed for
this next step.
