ASSEMBLY

If lag bolts are used, make sure they are long enough to
go through holes in drill press base and material the drill
press is being mounted to. If machine bolts are used,
make sure bolts are long enough to go through holes in
drill press, the material being mounted to, and the lock
washers and hex nuts.

Note:

All bolts should be inserted from the top. Install the

lock washers and hex nuts from the underside of the
workbench. Once the drill press is securely mounted on a
sturdy surface perform the following:

■

Check for vibration when the motor is switched ON.

■

Adjust and retighten the mounting hardware as
necessary.

■

Check the table assembly to assure smooth
movement up and down the column.

■

Check to assure that the spindle shaft moves
smoothly.

INSTALLING / USING THE SPINDLE LOCK
LEVER (Fig. 13)

The spindle lock is installed by aligning the threaded post
on the lock lever (14) with the hole on the left side of the
tool then turning the post clockwise. Securely tightening
the spindle lock lever (14) locks the spindle in place.
Turning the lock lever counterclockwise will loosen
the spindle.

CHECKING / ADJUSTING LASER ALIGNMENT
(Fig. 14)

Check the laser alignment to ensure the intersection of
the laser lines is precisely at the spot where the drill bit
meets the workpiece. If it is not, the laser lines should be
adjusted using the laser adjustment knobs (j) located on
opposite sides of the head assembly.

■

Mark an “X” on a piece of scrap wood.

■

Insert a small drill bit into the chuck and align its tip to
the intersection of the lines of the “X”.

■

Secure the board to the table.

■

Turn on the laser and verify the laser lines align with
the “X” on the workpiece.

■

If the laser lines do not align, loosen the set screws
on each of the laser housings (k) with a hex key and
rotate the laser adjustment knobs (j) until the lines
meet in the centre of the “X”. Retighten the set
screws (l) to secure.
