QUILL RETURN SPRING
1. Move the stop nuts and depth pointer to lowest pos-
ition and lock in place with wrench to prevent quill
dropping while tensioning spring.
2. Lower table for additional clearance.
3. Work from left side of Drill Press.
4. Place screwdriver inlower front notch of spring cap,
and hold it in place while loosening and removing
jam [outer] nut only.
5. With screwdriver remaining in notch, loosen large
standard [inner] nut (approximately 1/8") until notch
disengages from boss on head. DO NOT REMOVE
THIS NUT.
6. Carefully turn screwdriver counter clockwise and en-
gage next notch in boss. DO NOT REMOVE
SCREWDRIVER.
7. Tighten standard nut with wrench only enough to
engage boss. Do not overtighten as this will restrict
quill movement.
8. Move stop nuts and depth pointer to upper most
position and check tension while turning feed han-
dles.
9. if there is not enough tension on spring, repeat steps
4-8 moving only ONE notch each time and checking
tension after EACH repetition.

to fuji up position when released from 3/4" depth•
11. When there is enough tension after checking, re-
place jam nut and tighten to standard nut, BUT do
not overtighten against standard nut.
