POSITIONING THE TABLE AND WORKPIECE
(FIG. Y and Z)
1. Lockthetable (1) to thecolumn(2) at a positionso
thetipofthe drillbit (3) is just abovethe topofthe
workpiece(4).
2. ALWAYS place a BACK-UP MATERIAL (scrap
wood)on the table beneaththe workpiece.Thiswill
preventsplinteringor heavyburringon the
undersideof theworkpiece. 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 backup material from being
torn from your hands while drilling, you MUST position it
against the LEFT side of the column. If the workpiece or
the backup matedal is not long enough to reach the
column, use the fence provided with the drill press to
brace the workpiece. Failure to do this could result in
personal injury.
HOLDING A DRILLING LOCATION
1. Usinga centerpunchor sharpnail,make an
indentationintheworkpiecewhereyouwantthe

TILTING THE TABLE (FIG. AA)
NOTE: The table arm and support (1) has a preddlled
hole with a locking set screw inserted for locking the
table into a predetermined 0 ° horizontal position.
1. To use the table in a bevel (tilted) position, turn the
locking set screw (2) with the hex key
counterclockwise to release it from the table
support.
2. Loosen the large hex head bevel locking bolt (3).

To prevent injury,be sure to hold the table& table
arm assembly, so it will not swivel or tilt.

3. For small pieces that cannot be clamped to the
table, use a drill press vise (optinal accessory).
The drill press vise MUST be clamped or bolted to the
table to avoid injury from a spinning workpiece, or
damaged vise or bit parts.
Remove the drill press fence when it interferes with other
drill press accessories.
Fig. Z
3. Tilt the table, aligning the desired angle
measurement to the zero line opposite the scale (4).
Tighten the bevel locking bolt.
4 To return the table to its original position, loosen
the bevel locking bolt (3). Realign the bevel scale (4)
to the 0° position
5 Using the hex key, turn the locking set screw (2)
clockwise to seat into the hole.
To avoid injury from spinning work or tool breakage,
always clamp workpiece and backup material
securely to the table before operating the drill press
with the table tilted
FEEDING
1. Pull down the feed handles with only enough effort
to allow the drill bit to cut.
2 Feeding too slowly might cause the drill bit to burn.
Feeding too rapidly might stop the motor, cause the
belt or drill to slip, or tear the workpiece loose and
break the drill bit
3. When drilling metal, it may be necessary to
lubricate the drill bit tip with motor oil, to prevent
burning the tip.
