How To Drill
For accuracy drill a small lead hole before using the final size drill.
Large diameter drills will “walk” off center until drill reaches full
diameter at which point the outside diameter acts as a pilot in the
hole being drilled. This is not peculiar to magnetic drill presses, but
is general machine shop knowledge on any large hole drilling.
Brushes
Carbon brushes should be regularly inspected for wear. When the
cap is unscrewed, the spring and brush assembly may be withdrawn
from the tool.
Keep brushes clean and sliding freely in their guides. Carbon
brushes have varying symbols stamped into them, and if the brush
is worn down to the line closest to the spring, they must be replaced.
New brush assemblies are available at service centers.
Adjustments
This unit is designed with a lubricated gib and is adjusted at the factory.
The gib may by lubricated periodically with grease to ensure smooth
operation. The gib should be tight enough to retain the motor in the
upward (retracted) position. Should this need adjustment, tighten 5
self-locking set screws on the side of the drill press body.

Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available at
extra cost from your distributor or your local service center.
