5. USE EYE, HEARING, AND BREATHING PROTECTION. Wear ANSI approved safety impact eye glasses, ANSI approved hearing protection, and ANSI approved dust mask or respirator when using this product. ANSI approved safety impact eye glasses, hearing protection, and dust masks and respirators are available from Harbor Freight Tools. 6. DRESS SAFELY. Non-skid footwear or safety shoes should be used when working with this product. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can become caught in moving parts.
sure this product is always plugged into a grounded 3-hole electrical receptacle with an appropriate breaker switch in-line. 2. MAKE SURE THE POWER SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD. 3. DO NOT ABUSE THE POWER CORD. Do not use the cord to pull the 3-prong plug from a power outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Replace damaged cord immediately. Route the power cord safely. Protect it from being damaged by other equipment in the shop.
10. CAUTION: Some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When drilling these materials extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact. 11. ALLOW THE DRILL BIT TO SPIN UP TO FULL SPEED BEFORE DRILLING INTO THE WORKPIECE. When turning off the Drill Press, allow the drill bit to spin down and stop on its own. Do not press the drill bit against the workpiece to stop it. 12. DO NOT FORCE THE DRILL BIT INTO THE WORKPIECE WHEN DRILLING.
3. To attach the Head Assembly (part #1B) to the Column (part #1A), loosen the Hex Screws (part #13B) to ensure the Screws do not protrude internally in the Column (part #1A), as this would prevent the Head Assembly from sliding downward fully onto the Column. With assistance raise the Head Assembly and slide it fully onto the Column, aligning the Head Assembly with the Base (part #4A). Lock the Head Assembly in place by tightening the Hex Screws (part #13B). (See Assembly Diagrams A and B.) 4.
Bolts of appropriate length, Washers and Locknuts (not provided). To Install/Reposition The Drive Belts: 1. The Drill Press features 12 speed selections from which to choose. 2. The two V-Belts (parts #21C, 26C), when positioned on the three Pulleys (parts #3C, 28C, 19C), will determine the speed at which the Drill Press will run. (See Assembly Diagram C and Figure B.) SPINDLE SPEED IN R. R. M. FIGURE B 3.
To Obtain The Proper Cutting Speeds: 1. Factors which determine the best speed to use in the Drill Press are: A. The kind of material being drilled. B. The size of the hole. C. The quality of cut desired. 2. Generally, in soft material the speed should be higher than for hard materials. The following guide indicates the proper Drill Press speed (RPM) for a given drill bit size and the material being drilled. (See Figure C.
To Adjust The Table: 1. The Table (part #9A) may be adjusted in 4 directions. 2. To raise or lower the Table, release the Table Clamp (part #11A), and turn the Crank (part #6A) clockwise to raise the Table and counterclockwise to lower the Table. When the desired height of the Table has been reached, secure the Table in place by locking the Table Clamp. (See Assembly Diagram A and Figure D.) 3.
5. The Drill Press is now set to drill holes to your pre-determined depth, provided the surface of the workpiece is flat and level. You may also drill a series of holes to the same depth. To Operate The Drill Press: 1. Before starting the Drill Press, make sure all adjustments are properly made and all of the guards are in place. 2. Insert the drill bit about 1” into the jaws of the Chuck (part #8C). Make sure the jaws of the Chuck do not touch the flutes of the drill bit.
5. Set the depth of drill bit travel so that the drill bit cannot come into contact with the Table (part #9A), or align the Table so that the hole in its center is in line with the drill bit. 6. The Drill Press is now ready to operate. CLEANING, INSPECTION, AND MAINTENANCE 1. Caution: Always disconnect the Drill Press from its electrical power supply source before performing any cleaning, inspection, or maintenance. 2. Do not introduce water into the electric motor through the motor vents. 3.
