GENERAL SAFETY RULES Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury to the operator may result.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR FOR DRILL PRESSES WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. 1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL UNTIL it is assembled and installed according to the instructions. 14. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF” AND WAIT FOR THE DRILL BIT, CUTTING TOOL, OR SANDER TO STOP TURNING prior to cleaning the work area, removing debris, removing or securing workpiece, or changing the angle of the table. A moving drill bit, cutting tool, or sander can be dangerous.
POWER CONNECTIONS A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3prong grounding type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug.
EXTENSION CORDS Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D, shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length.

ASSEMBLY WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT CONNECT THE MACHINE TO THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE MACHINE IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED AND YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTION MANUAL. 1. Assemble the column (A) Fig. 3, to the base (B) using the four screws, three of which are shown at (C). Loosen set screw (D) and remove ring (E) and raising rack (F). E D F A C C B Fig. 3 2. Make certain worm gear (G) Figs. 4 and 5, is in place in table bracket (H) as shown. G H Fig. 4 G H 3.
F 4. Slide raising rack (F) Fig. 7, table and table bracket onto drill press column, as shown. Make sure bottom of raising rack (F) Fig. 8, is inside the flange (J) on drill press base. Fig. 7 F J 5. Re-assemble ring (E) Fig. 9, which was removed in STEP 1. IMPORTANT: Bottom of ring (E) MUST NOT be pushed all the way down onto top of raising rack (F). MAKE SURE top of raising rack (F) is under bottom of ring (E) and that there is enough clearance to allow rack (F) to rotate around the column.
7. Thread stud on clamp handle (M) Fig. 12, into hole in rear of table bracket, as shown. M Fig. 12 N O 8. Place the drill press head (N) Fig. 13, onto the column as far as it will go. Align head (A) Fig. 13A, to table (B), and base (C). Tighten the two head locking screws (O) Fig. 13, with wrench supplied. Fig. 13 A B C Fig. 13A 9. Thread the three pinion shaft handles (P) Fig. 14, into the three tapped holes located in the pinion shaft, as shown. P Fig.
. IMPORTANT: Make certain the spindle taper (Q) Fig. 15, and tapered hole in chuck (R) are clean and free of any grease, lacquer or rust preventive coatings. NOTE: Household oven cleaner can effectively remove any substance from the spindle and chuck; however, carefully follow the manufacturer's safety rules concerning its use. Q R Fig. 15 11. IMPORTANT: Open the chuck jaws as wide as possible by turning the chuck sleeve (S) Fig. 16. S 12.
LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent unauthorized use. This can be done by grasping the switch toggle (B) and pulling it out of the switch, as shown in Fig. 19. With the switch toggle (B) removed, the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the drill press is operating, the switch can be turned “OFF” once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the switch toggle (B).
C D C D E Fig. 22 Fig. 23 3. The table can be tilted right or left by pulling out and removing table alignment pin (C) Fig. 22. NOTE: If pin (C) is difficult to remove, turn nut (E) clockwise to pull pin out of casting. 4. Fig. 23, illustrates the table alignment pin (C) removed. Loosen table locking bolt (D), tilt table to the desired angle and tighten bolt (D). When returning table to the level position, replace table alignment pin (C).
5. After the belt is positioned on the desired steps of the motor and spindle pulleys, move motor (D) Fig. 26, to the rear until the belt is properly tensioned and tighten tension lock knob (B). The belt should be just tight enough to prevent slipping. Excessive tension will reduce the life of the belt, pulleys and bearings. Correct tension is obtained when the belt (C) can be flexed about 1" out of line midway between the pulleys using light finger pressure.
OPERATION Your drill press is to be used with drill bits with a shank of 1/2" or less in diameter. The following will give the inexperienced operator a start on common drill press operations. Use scrap material for practice to get a feel of the machine before attempting regular work. WARNING: The use of accessories and attachments not recommended by Delta may result in risk of injury.
CORRECT DRILLING SPEEDS Factors which determine the best speed to use are: kind of material being worked, size of hole, type of drill or other cutter, and quality of cut desired. WARNING: Use the recommended speed for the drill press bit and workpiece material. BORING IN WOOD Twist drills, although intended for metal drilling, may also be used for boring holes in wood.
