DRILL BIT
6. Insert the drill bit into the chuck (K, g 3) far enough to obtain maximum
grip from the chuck jaws. Make sure the drill bit is centered in the chuck.
7. Insert the chuck key (L, g 2) and turn it clockwise to tighten (and
counter-clockwise to loosen) the drill bit. Tighten the chuck sufciently to
prevent the bit slipping in the jaws during drilling. As a test, turn the drill
press on and immediately off to check if the drill bit wobbles.
TABLE ADJUSTMENT
8. To position the table (H, g 2) vertically, loosen the support lock handle
(B, g 2) and raise or lower the table to the desired position. Re-tighten
the support lock handle.
9. Line up the drill bit with the table center hole when through-boring to
avoid damage to the table.
10. To tilt the table, loosen the table bevel lock screw (G, g 2) under the
table, tilt the table to the desired angle (you can use the bevel scale on
the support as a rough gauge) and re-tighten the table bevel lock screw.
NOTE: It is a good idea to always check that the angle is correct with a
protactor or a combination square.
DEPTH CONTROL
11. The drilling depth may be controlled by watching the indicator and
depth scale (V g 3), on the left side of the drill press head, or it can be
regulated quite precisely by setting the depth stop nuts on the depth
stop rod (Q, g 3).
12. Check that the chuck key is not in the chuck and that the drill bit is
not contacting the workpiece. Check that the workpiece is properly
anchored on the table. Be sure that all the safety rules at the front of this
manual are followed.
LASER
13. Place a work piece on the table.
14. Turn the laser switch to the on (I) position.
15. Lower the drill bit to meet the work piece. The two laser lines should
cross where the drill meets the work piece.
16. If the laser needs to be adjusted:
Using a hex wrench, turn the laser adjustment hex screws (3)
counterclockwise.
Move the laser light housing until the two lines intersect where the drill
meets the work piece. DO NOT stare directly at the laser lines.
Re-tighten the adjustment hex screws .
DRILLING
17. Turn the switch on.
18. Use the feed handles to push the drill bit slowly into the material.
Particularly in wood drilling, ease up on the pressure when nearing
the point where the drill bit is about to emerge on the other side of the
workpiece.
19. After drilling a hole, do not release the feed handle but restrain it lightly,
allowing the spring to raise spindle sleeve gently to its original position.
20. Turn off the drill press.
21. Switch off the laser.
WARNING! After switching off, never leave the machine unattended
until it has come to a complete stop.
WARNING! In case of any trouble or abnormal noise arising during this
operation, stop the motor at once, unplug the machine from the power
source and nd out the cause. Do not resume until the problem has been
solved.
