Mounting the base plate (Fig. 3) (optional)
▪
Select a suitable location for the drill on a workbench. Be aware of table legs and anything
which might reduce access to the underneath of the workbench. A suitable mains supply
socket must also be accessible for the plug.

▪
Select two suitable length bolts, washers and nuts (not supplied).
▪
Using the base plate (7) as a template drill two holes through the workbench.

Bolt the base plate (7) to the bench. Do not over tighten as this could crack the cast base
plate (Fig. 3).

▪
Attach using bolt washer and spring washer hole through the column and into the base
(Fig. 4).
7.3
Fitting the table (Fig. 5)

Lower the table assembly onto the column (5). The assembly will slide easily into position
so do not use force. Make sure the table assembly will rotate 360°.
▪
Tight the table lock to secure the table assembly into position (Fig. 5).
7.4
Fitting the head stock and motor (Fig. 6)
▪
Locate the two grub screws in the side of the head stock and motor assembly. Using a
hexagonal key slacken the two grub screws.
▪
Lift the head stock and motor assembly and lower it onto the column. Make sure that it
slides down and locates fully on the column.
▪
Position the head stock and motor assembly ensuring it is aligned with the base plate (7).
▪
Tighten the two grub screws to secure the head stock and motor assembly into place (Fig.
6).

7.6
Fitting the chuck guard (Fig. 8)
▪
Warning: never attempt to use the machine without the chuck guard (4) fitted.

▪
Remove three cross head screws just below the hinge on the red collar.
▪
Position the transparent plastic shield into the red collar and secure in place with the three
small cross head screws (Fig. 8).
▪
The chuck guard (4) is spring loaded and on a hinge which allows the guard (4) to be
moved upwards to expose the chuck (9) for drill installations and removal.
▪
Always return the guard (4) to cover rotating parts. Simply unscrew the wing nuts and the
two piece guard will extend vertically up or down.
▪
Chuck guard (4) is adjustable to varying depths to give more protection (Fig. 8).
7.7
