WARNING
!
For your own safety, always observe the
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS listed on pages
4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of this instruction manual
when operating the drill press.
POSITIONING THE TABLE AND
WORKPIECE (FIG. BB, CC)
1. Lock the table (1) to the column (2) at a
position so the tip of the drill bit (3) is just
above the top of the workpiece (4).
2. ALWAYS place BACK-UP MATERIAL
(scrap wood) on the table beneath the
workpiece. This will prevent splintering
or heavy burring on the underside of the
workpiece. To keep the back-up material
from spinning out of control, it MUST
contact the LEFT side of the column.
To prevent the workpiece or back-up
material from being thrown while drilling,
you MUST position the workpiece
against the LEFT side of the column. If
the workpiece or the back-up material
is not long enough to reach the column,
clamp them to the table, or use the fence
provided with the drill press to brace the
workpiece. Failure to secure the workpiece
could result in personal injury.
Fig. BB
3. For small pieces that cannot be clamped
to the table, use a drill press vise (optional
accessory).
When using a drill press vise, it MUST be
clamped or bolted to the table to avoid
injury from a spinning workpiece, or
damaged vise or bit parts.
