IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION ARE FACTORS WHICH CANNOT BE BUILT INTO ANY PRODUCT. THESE FACTORS MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE OPERATOR. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work benches and dark work areas may cause accidents or injury. Do not operate drill in explosive areas, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. The drill may create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. KEEP BYSTANDERS, CHILDREN & VISITORS AWAY WHILE OPERATING THE DRILL.
Wash hands after handling the power cord. Touching the power cord could expose you to lead, which is known in the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. All work areas should be clean and well lit. Accidents are more likely to occur in poorly lit and cluttered areas. Keep children, and other distractions at a distance while operating power tools. Keep the power cord in good condition, and replace damaged cords immediately.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO MAINTAIN SAFE WORKING CONDITIONS AND GOOD WORKING CONDITION OF POWER TOOLS. IMPROPER CARE CAN RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK OR SERIOUS INJURY. Secure and support the work piece using clamps. Do not use your hands to hold the piece in place. Use the correct tool for the job. Using the correct tool is safer and faster. Make sure the power switch is in good working order. If the power switch no longer turns the tool “ON” or “OFF”, discontinue use, and have the tool replaced or repaired.

Assembly Do not stare directly at the laser beam. Never aim the beam at any person or object other than the work piece. Do not deliberately aim the beam at personnel. Staring at the beam may cause flash blindness. UNPACK PRODUCT FROM PACKAGE AND REVIEW CONTENTS. KEEP ALL PACKAGING UNTIL PRODUCT HAS BEEN REVIEWED. Do not operate the machine until it is completely assembled. Make sure the proper electrical regulations are followed, and that the machine is properly grounded.
Column Assembly to Base NOTE: Ideally, the base should be firmly bolted to the floor, prior to assembly of other components. The mounting surface must be flat, level and capable of supporting the drill weight. With the base on a flat level surface, bolt on the Column using the 4.M10 Hex head screws provided and tighten. Carefully locate the table in its support and tighten up with the table locking handle. Check to make sure the column securing set screws, at the column support, are tight.
SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS Table The table may be raised, lowered or swivelled about the column, by loosening the table support locking handle. Adjust accordingly using the table crank, and re-tighten the locking handle. If the table assembly moves stiffly when being swivelled about the column, loosen the upper collar allen screw (at the rack) to allow the collar to move very slightly, thereby providing a little more clearance between rack and collar. Tighten the allen screw when satisfied.
REMOVING THE CHUCK To remove the chuck, pull the spindle down fully, using the feed handles. The slot in the side of the Quill will become visible. Note the position of the chuck, perhaps by placing a chalk mark, in line with the chuck, on the column, then raise the table so that it is only an inch or so below the position marked. Place a thick cloth, or similar material, on the table to catch the chuck, to prevent damage when it drops.
Lubrication All bearings are packed with grease at the factory and require no further lubrication. After use, remove all swarf from the machine and thoroughly clean all surfaces. Components should be dry, with machined surfaces lightly oiled. Always remove drill bits, and store in a safe place. ACCESSORIES USE ONLY ACCESSORIES THAT ARE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR YOUR MODEL. ACCESSORIES THAT MAY BE SUITABLE FOR ONE TOOL MAY BECOME HAZARDOUS WHEN USED ON ANOTHER TOOL.
