SAFETY
Serious injury or death can occur from getting clothing, jewelry, or long hair entangled in rotat-
ing spindle or bit/cutting tool. Contact with rotating bit/cutting tool can result in severe cuts or
amputation of fingers. Flying metal chips can cause blindness or eye injuries. Broken bits/cutting
tools, unsecured workpieces, chuck keys, or other adjustment tools thrown from rotating spindle
can strike nearby operator or bystanders with great force. To reduce the risk of these hazards,
operator and bystanders MUST completely heed hazards and warnings below.
WORKPIECE CONTROL. An unsecured workpiece
may unexpectedly shift, spin out of control,
or be thrown if bit/cutting tool “grabs” during
operation. Clamp workpiece to table or in table-
mounted vise, or brace against column to prevent
rotation.
NEVER hold workpiece by hand during
operation.
NEVER start machine with bit/cutting
tool touching workpiece; allow spindle to gain full
speed before drilling.
INSPECTING BIT/CUTTING TOOL. Damaged bits/
cutting tools may break apart during operation
and hit operator or bystanders. Dull bits/cutting
tools increase cutting resistance and are more
likely to grab and spin/throw workpiece. Always
inspect bits/cutting tools for sharpness, chips, or
cracks before each use. Replace dull, chipped, or
cracked bits/cutting tools immediately.
MAINTAINING MACHINE. Keep machine in proper
working condition to help ensure that it functions
safely and all guards and other components work
as intended. Perform routine inspections and all
necessary maintenance. Never operate machine
with damaged or worn parts that can break or
result in unexpected movement during operation.
CLEANING MACHINE SAFELY.
To avoid contact
with tool/bit, n
ever clear chips while spindle is
turning. To avoid cuts and eye injuries, DO NOT
clear chips by hand or with compressed air—use a
brush or vacuum instead.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. To
reduce risk of
electrocution or injury from unexpected startup,
make sure drill is turned OFF, disconnected from
power, and all moving parts have come to a com-
plete stop before changing bits/cutting tools or
starting any inspection, adjustment, or mainte-
nance procedure.
WEARING PROPER PPE. Flying chips created
by drilling can cause eye injuries or blindness.
Always wear a face shield in addition to safety
glasses. Always keep hands and fingers away from
drill bit/cutting tool. Avoid awkward hand posi-
tions, where a sudden slip could cause hand to
move into bit/cutting tool.
AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. DO NOT wear loose
clothing, gloves, or jewelry, and tie back long
hair. Keep all guards in place and secure. Always
allow spindle to stop on its own. DO NOT stop
spindle using your hand or any other object.
REMOVING ADJUSTMENT TOOLS. Chuck key,
drawbar wrench, and other tools left on machine
can become deadly projectiles when spindle is
started. Remove all loose items or tools used on
spindle immediately after use.
SECURING BIT/CUTTING TOOL. Firmly secure bit/
cutting tool so it does not fly out of spindle during
operation or startup.
SECURING TABLE AND HEADSTOCK. To avoid
accidental contact with tool/bit, tighten all table
and headstock locks before operating drill.
CORRECT SPINDLE SPEED. Using wrong spindle
speed can cause bits/cutting tools to break and
strike operator or bystanders. Follow recom-
mended speeds and feeds for each size/type of
bit/cutting tool and workpiece material.
WORKPIECE PREPARATION. To avoid loss of
workpiece control, DO NOT drill material with
an uneven surface on the table, unless a suitable
support is used. To avoid impact injuries, make
sure workpiece is free of nails or foreign objects
in area to be drilled.

ELECTRICAL
Groun ding.Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain
types of
malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current
to travel—in
order
to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire
will
increase
the risk of electric shock. The wire with green
insulation
(with/without yellow stripes) is the equipment-
grounding
wire. If repair or replacement of the power
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if
you do not understand these grounding requirements,

Anchoring machinery to the floor prevents tipping or
shifting and reduces vibration that may occur during
operation, resulting in a machine that runs slightly quieter
and feels more solid.
If the machine will be installed in a commercial or
workplace setting, or if it is permanently connected
(hardwired) to the power supply, local codes may require
that it be anchored to the floor.
If not required by any local codes, fastening the machine
to the floor is an optional step. If you choose not to do
this with your machine, we recommend placing it on
machine mounts, as these provide an easy method for
leveling and they have vibration-absorbing pads.
Anchoring.to.Concrete.Floors
Lag shield anchors with lag screws (see Figure) are a
popular way to anchor machinery to a concrete floor,
because the anchors sit flush with the floor surface,
making it easy to unbolt and move the machine later, if
needed. However, anytime local codes apply, you MUST
follow the anchoring methodology specified by the code.

The base of this machine has mounting holes that allow it
to be fastened to a workbench or other mounting surface
to prevent it from moving during operation and causing
accidental injury or damage.
The strongest mounting option is a “Through Mount” (see
example) where holes are drilled all the way through the
workbench—and hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are
used to secure the machine in place.
Another option is a “Direct Mount” (see example) where
the machine is secured directly to the workbench with lag
screws and washers.

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine
the CFM at the dust port, you must consider
these variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust col-
lector, (2) hose type and length between the
dust collector and the machine, (3) number of
branches or wyes, and (4) amount of other open
lines throughout the system. Explaining how to
calculate these variables is beyond the scope
of this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a

Spindle.Break-In
DO NOT perform this procedure indepen-
dently of the Test Run section. The drill
press could be seriously damaged if the con-
trols are set differently than instructed in
that section.
Complete the spindle bearing break-in pro-
cedure to prevent rapid wear and tear of
spindle components once the drill press is
placed into operation.
To.perform.spindle.break-in:
1. Make sure machine has been properly lubri-
cated. Refer to Lubrication on Page 38.
2. Make sure spindle area is free of obstruc-
tions.
3. Set spindle speed to the lowest RPM. Refer
to Adjusting Drill Speed on Page 31.
4. Run spindle for 10 minutes at the slow-
est speeds, 5 minutes at each speed listed
below, in progressive order.
a. 250 RPM
b. 640 RPM
c. 1530 RPM
d. 1870 RPM
e. 3050 RPM
5. Turn machine OFF.
Congratulations! Spindle break-in is now complete.
The spindle break-in procedure distributes lubri-
cation throughout the bearings to reduce the
risk of early bearing failure if there are any "dry"
spots or areas where lubrication has settled in
the bearings. You must complete this procedure
before placing operational loads on the spindle
for the first time when the machine is new or if
it has been sitting idle for longer than 6 months.
Always start the spindle break-in at the lowest
speed to minimize wear if there are dry spots.
Allow the spindle to run long enough to warm up
and distribute the bearing grease, then incremen-
tally increase spindle speeds and repeat this pro-
cess at each speed until reaching the maximum
spindle speed. Following the break-in procedure
in this progressive manner helps minimize any
potential wear that could occur before lubrication
is fully distributed.

ADJUSTMENTS
The drill press main drive belts last a long
time; however, during machine life, a belt may
stretch slightly, which can cause the pulleys to
slip under load. You will then need to adjust
the motor-to-idler pulley belt tension to com-
pensate for this normal stretching.
NOTE:.The spindle-to-idler pulley belt automati-
cally adjusts to the correct tension when the
motor-to-idler pulley belt tension is adjusted.

While you may never have to adjust the quill
shaft screw, you should understand its function
and know how to adjust it should you ever need
to remove the quill for cleaning. This screw pre-
vents the quill from rotating during drilling and
sanding procedures, and if adjusted incorrectly,
the quill may have lash or bind.
To.adjust.the.quill -shaft.screw,.do.these.steps:
1... DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM POWER!
2... Clean and lubricate the quill shaft with a
thin coat of light oil, and make sure the
quill travels freely (see Figure.32).
3... Loosen the jam nut shown in Figure.33.
4... Turn the quil shaft screw clockwise or coun-
terclockwise to establish free, unbinding
travel while moving the quill up and down
through its entire range of travel.
5... When the quil shaft screw is screwed inward
against the quill as far as the screw can go
without binding the quill, hold the screw
and tighten the jam nut.
6... Recheck for quill binding and looseness
while moving the quill up and down through
its entire range of travel and readjust as
required.

1. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM POWER!
2.. Use the chuck key to open the chuck wide
enough to accept the new bit or the sand-
ing drum mandrel (see Figure.44).
3.. Install the bit or mandrel so the chuck jaws
will grab as much of the bit or mandrel
shank as it can.
• If you are installing a small drill bit, make
sure it is held between three jaws instead
of only two, and NEVER allow a chuck to
grab the fluted body of drill bits.
• If you are installing the sanding drum,
install the paper and drum before install-
ing the spindle into the drill chuck (con-
tact your local SHOP FOX

4.. Tighten the chuck with the chuck key,
using any of the three key end locations.
(see Figure. 45).
5.. Choose the insert that has an opening
which is approximately
1
⁄4" bigger than the
sanding drum chosen. For drilling, always
use the table insert (see Figure.46) with
the smallest opening. A table insert is not
needed when a 2" drum is used.

Table.&.Base
MA INTENANCE
As sanding drums are used, the abrasive sleeve
will quickly become "loaded" with sawdust. If
not removed, this sawdust will harden on the
abrasive surface, rendering the sleeve useless.
Routinely clean the sanding sleeve with a rubber
gum abrasive cleaner like the PRO-STIK® clean-
ers, as shown on Page.30.
Always discard worn sanding sleeves. As abrasive
sleeves begin to wear, grit will begin to fall off
and cause gouges in the workpiece. Glue used to
hold the grit to the paper will rub off onto the
workpiece interfering with the final finish.
Sanding.Sleeves
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to
any specific instructions given in this section.
General
Daily.Check
• Make sure drill is disconnected from power
when not in use.
• Check for loose mounting bolts.
• Make sure drill is clean and lubricated.
• Check.for.worn or damaged wires.
• Check for any other unsafe condition.
• Check belts for tension and wear.
Every.90.Days
• Lubricate quill and column racks.
Lubrication
For the quill, table, and column, an occasional
application of light machine oil is all that is
necessary. For the quill and column racks, lubri-
cate with NLGI #2 grease every 90 days. Before
applying lubricant, clean off any dust or metal
chips.
Your goal is to achieve adequate lubrication.
Too much lubrication will attract dirt and dust,
which could cause various parts of your machine
to lose their freedom of movement.
Inspect regularly for tension and wear. Refer to
Figure 52 for proper belt tension. Belt deflec-
tion should be approximately 1-
1
⁄2" under moder-
ate pressure. Check pulleys to ensure that they
are properly aligned when installing V-belts.
To replace the V-belts, refer to Adjusting
Drilling Speed on Page 31 to loosen the belts.
Remove them from the pulleys, then install new
V-belts.
