Operating Instructions
To avoid injury from accidental starting, always turn the switch OFF and unplug the drill press before
installing or removing any accessory or attachment or making any adjustment.
Always wear safety goggles when operating the drill.
Use only accessories designed for this machine to avoid injury from thrown broken parts.
Follow instructions that accompany accessories. Do not use any accessory unless you have
completely read the instruction or operator’s manual for that accessory.
1. Installing A Drill Bit
a. With the switch OFF, open the chuck jaws (1)
using the chuck key (2). Turn the chuck key
counterclockwise to open the chuck jaws (1).
b. Insert the drill bit (3) into the chuck far enough to
obtain maximum gripping by the jaws, but not far
enough to touch the spiral grooves (flutes) of the drill
bit when the jaws are tightened.
c. Make sure that the drill is centered in the chuck.
d. Turn the chuck key clockwise to tighten the jaws.
e. When fully tightened, remove the chuck key.
Always recheck and remove the chuck key before turning the power ON to avoid injury or accident by
the chuck key ejecting forcibly from the chuck.
