Operation
8.1
Clamping workpieces
To load/unload heavier workpieces, unlock the
arm and rotate it out of the way. Lift the
workpiece with slings or other properly rated
lifting equipment.
Both the box table and the base surface are
slotted to accept a suitably sized T-slot clamp.
Before beginning any work on the drill press,
anchor the work piece, and the box table if used,
to be certain that the workpiece and/or box table
will not move when the tool enters the
workpiece.
If the box table will not be used, simply remove
the nuts at the base, and move the table off
using proper lifting equipment.
Failure to properly anchor
the workpiece and box table could result in
damage to the machine, damage to the
workpiece, and worse – severe injury and
possible
death
to the machine operator.
Never work on the drill press without
clamping the materials using a T-slot system
set-up.
8.2
Tool insertion
The Model J-1230R uses a No. 4 Morse taper in
the spindle to secure tooling. Any drill, milling
cutter, or tool holder with an MT-4 can be
inserted into the quill.
The first step in removing or
inserting any tooling is to
be absolutely certain
the machine cannot be accidentally started
during the insertion or removal operation.
The only way to be certain of this fact is to
disconnect power to the machine. The service
box should have a cut-out switch or lever on the
outside of the box. Put the switch or lever in the
OFF position before inserting or removing
tooling.
To insert tooling:
1. Verify that machine is disconnected from
power.
2. Be certain the spindle is clean, free from oil,
and ready to accept the shank of any
tooling.
3. Check the shank of the tooling to be certain
the tooling is free from dirt, nicks or burrs. If
nicks or burrs are discovered, file or stone
the shank until it is smooth.
4. Be certain quill is in full UP position.
5. Slide shank of tooling into the spindle until it
seats.
6. Use a soft-faced mallet (such as lead,
plastic, brass, etc.) to give the tooling a
sharp tap on its tip. This will secure the
tooling in the taper.
7. Reestablish power to the machine and the
drill is ready to use.
To remove tooling:
8. Verify that machine is disconnected from
power.
9. Place a wood block under the tooling in the
spindle, to prevent it being damaged should
it fall out during the removal process.
10. Lower the quill using the feed levers until the
tool removal window is exposed.
11. Insert tapered drift (included in toolbox) into
the removal window, above the tip of the
tooling shank.
12. Use leather gloves to hold the tooling with
your hand to prevent it falling from the quill.
13. With your free hand, tap the tapered drift
with a hammer until the tooling can be
removed.
8.3
Tool Positioning over workpiece
After the workpiece has been clamped to the
base or table, position the tooling over the
workpiece, using any or all of the following
methods:
1. Adjusting the height of the arm on the
support column.
2. Moving the drill head along the arm.
3. Rotating the column upon which the arm
and head are attached.
