LOCKING THE CHUCK AT THE DESIRED DEPTH

(FIG. V)

1. Turn the switch to “OFF,” turn the feed handles until

the chuck (1) is at the desired depth. Hold the feed

handles at this position.

2. Turn the stop nut (2), located under the stop (3),

counterclockwise and upwards, until it is against the

stop (3).

3. The chuck will now be held at this position when the

feed handles are released.

REMOVING CHUCK AND ARBOR (FIG. W)

1. With the switch “OFF” and the unit unplugged, adjust

the depth stop nut (1) to hold the drill at a depth of 3

in. (7.6 cm). (See instructions for “LOCKING CHUCK

AT DESIRED DEPTH”).

2. Align the key holes in the spindle (2) and quill (3) by

rotating the chuck by hand.

3. Bag “D” - Insert the key wedge (4) into the key holes

(2 & 3).

4. Tap the key wedge (4) lightly with a plastic tipped

hammer, until the chuck and arbor fall out of the

spindle.

NOTE: Place one hand below the chuck to catch it

when it falls out.

“ON,” use only the self-ejecting chuck key supplied

with this drill press. ALWAYS recheck and remove

the chuck key before turning the power “ON.”

NOTE: To prevent the workpiece or backup material

from being torn from your hands while drilling, you

MUST position the workpiece against the LEFT side

of the column. If the workpiece or the backup material

is not long enough to reach the column, clamp them

to the table. Failure to secure the workpiece could

result in personal injury.

DRILLING TO A SPECIFIC DEPTH (FIG. U)

Drilling a blind hole (not all the way through workpiece)

to a given depth can be done two ways:

Workpiece method

1. Mark the depth of the hole (1) on the side of the

workpiece.

2. Turn the switch to “OFF,” bring the drill bit down until

the tip is even with the mark.

3. Hold the feed handle (2) at this position.

4. Depress the spring-loaded button (3) and move the

stop nut (4) until the bottom of the nut contacts the

stop (5).

5. Connect the machine to the power source and drill

a test hole to check the adjustment. The drill bit will

now stop after traveling the distance marked on the

workpiece.

NOTE: Readjust, if necessary, by rotating the stop

nut (4) for ﬁne adjustment. You do not have to

depress the button (3) to rotate the stop nut (4).

Depth scale method

NOTE: With the chuck quill assembly fully retracted the

tip of the drill bit, the drill bit must be just slightly above

the top of the workpiece.

1. Turn the switch to “OFF,” rotate the feed handle (2)

until stop (5) points to the desired depth on the depth

scale (6) and hold the feed handle (2) in that position.

2. Depress the spring-loaded button (3) and move the

stop nut (4) until the bottom of the nut contacts the

stop (5).

3. Connect the machine to the power source and drill

a test hole to check the adjustment. The drill bit will

stop after traveling the distance selected on THE

DEPTH SCALE.

NOTE: Readjust, if necessary, by rotating the stop

nut (4) for ﬁne adjustment. You do not have to

depress the button (3) to rotate the stop nut (4).
