Cleaning
Clean off any protective grease with solvent.
After cleaning, lubricate the base, table, and
column with a light coating of medium weight
machine oil. Repeat at six months intervals.
Internal parts of the drill press are lubricated at
the factory. No further lubrication is required at
the time of installation.
Electrical Connection
Refer to the Wiring Diagram section for wiring
information. Connection to electrical power
should be made by a qualified electrician.
Observe local electrical codes when connecting
the machine.
The motor should be protected with a time delay
fuse or circuit breaker with an amperage rating
slightly higher than the full load current of the
motor.
Operating Controls
(Refer to Figure 7)
ON/OFF Switch
The ON/OFF switch is located at the front of the
drill head.
Speed Control Handwheel
To avoid damage to the
speed adjustment mechanism, the motor
must be oper-ating before attempting to
adjust the speed rate.
