Donotstaredirectlyat the laserbeam. Neveraimthe beamat any personor object other thanthe
work piece.Do not deliberatelyaimthe beamat personnel.Staring at the beam maycauseflash
b ndness.
NOTE 1
Unpackproduct from packageand review contents. Keepannpackaginguntil product hasbeen
reviewed.
Donot operatethe machineuntil it is completelyassembled.
Makesure the properelectrical regulationsare followed, and that the machineis properly grounded.
Beforeswitching the machineON,ALWAYS:a. Makesure all chuckkeys, spannersand wrenchesare
removedfrom the machine, b. Examinethe setup carefully, making certainthat the workpiece is
perfectlysecure,c. Makesure your clothing is properlyadjusted.
Makeall adjustmentswith the power OFF.
Always usethe correct drilling speedsfor the drill size, andthe type of material being drilled. NEVER
leavethe drill unattendedwhile it is running. Turn the machineOFFand do not leaveuntil it has come
to a completestop. Whenyou havefinished with the machine,always removeand store the drill bits.
CAUTION:This Drill Pressis designedfor usewith Drill Bits and Mortising attachments ONLY.
The use of othercuttingtools oraccessoriescouldbe hazardous.ALWAYSuse clamps, ora drill
vise boltedto the table, to holdthework. ItshouldNEVERbe held in barehands.
Usingthe Laser
The laserlight/laser radiation used inthis lasercentering devicesystem is Class2 with maximum
1roWand 40Onto- 70Ontowavelengths.Theselasers do not normally presentan optical hazard,
although staring atthe beam maycauseflash blindness.
Changingthe Batteries
Unclipthe batterycoverto gainaccessto the batteries.ReplacebothAA batteries,taking careto insert
the new batterieswith the correct polarity.
Useonly 2 AA batteries.DONOTmix old and new batteries. DONOTmix alkaline,standard (carbon
-zinc) or rechargeable(nickel-cadmium) batteries.
Replacethe laserlight battery cover and makecertainthat the light is not directedtowards the eyeof
a person. Alwaysmake sure that the laserbeam isaimed at a sturdy work piecewithout reflective
surfaces, i.e. wood or rough surfacesare acceptable.Bright, shiny, reflectivesheet steelor the like is
not suitablefor laser use,as the reflectivesurface could direct the beambackat the operator. Only
turn the laser beamon after the work pieceis in place. CAUTION:Removethe laser light batteries
when tool isto be stored without usefor a few days.
Resetting the Laser Beam
Loosenthe set screw on eachof the lasertubes andadjust the tubes until the two beamsintersect at
the point where the drill bit touchesthe work piece.Retightenthe set screws more. If left in position,
the batteries might leakand damagethe laserlight assembly. Damagecaused by battery leakageis
not coveredunder warranty.

ColumnAssemblyto Base
NOTE:Ideally,the baseshould befirmly bolted to the floor, prior to assemblyof other components.
The mounting surface must beflat, leveland capableof supporting the drill weight.
With the baseon a flat level surface, bolt onthe Column usingthe 4M10 Hex headscrews provided
and tighten. Carefullylocatethetable in its supportandtighten up with thetable locking handle.Check
to makesure the columnsecuring set screws,at the column support, are tight. Fitthe crank to the
shaft onthe crank assembly.
Headto Column
NOTE:tt may benecessaryto unscrewthe HeadLockSet Screwsslightly to makesure they do not
protrude internallyas this would preventthe headfrom sliding fully into position. 1. Raisethe head
and locateit ontop of the column. 2. Alignthe headwith the baseand firmly securewith the set
screws usingthe wrench. Locatethe threefeed handlesand screw them into the hub of the spindle
feed shaft.
ChuckGuardAssembly
NOTE:This operation should becarried out beforethe chuckis installed.Slidethe ChuckGuardover
the Quillshaft, turn it so that the pinchbolt facesthe front, thentighten upthe pinch boltto temporarily
secureit inthis position. IMPORTANTMakesure the QuillShaft Spindle is at the top of its travel.
PulleyCoverKnob
Locatethe knob, with pan headscrew and attach to the cover,screwing on tightly.
Installingthe Chuck
1. Slidethe table upthe column and secureit to within 6"of the spindle.
2. Openthe jaws of the chuckto their maximum, usingthe chuckkey supplied.
3. Puta pieceof scrap wood on tothe table to protect the chuck nose.
4. Makesure all parts arethoroughly clean,dry, and burr free. Placethe chuck over the end of the
arbor and pull the spindle down using the feed handles,pressingthe chuckjaws hard againstthe
pieceof scrapwood until the chuck is securelyin place.
5. Turn ChuckGuard 180 degreesand tighten Lock SetScrews slightly to makesure pinch bolt.
Fittingthe DriveBelts
Undothe BeltTension Locking Screws (one on eitherside of the head)and turn the BeltTension
Leverclockwiseto bringthe Motor Pulleycloser to the SpindlePulley (which will allow the beltsto
beslipped on with ease).
Lightly greasethe idler pulleypivot shaftand locatethe idler pulleyassemblyin its' mountingbetween
the Motor and spindle Pulleys.Consultthe chart insidethe beltcover,and fit the belts in the position
correspondingto spindle/drill speedrequired.
Turn the BeltTensionLevercounter-clockwiseso thattension is appliedto the belts.Tensionis correct
when the belts deflect by approx. 1/2"at their centers of run when using reasonablethumb pressure.
Lockthe motor in the position with the Belt Tension Locking Screws. 1. The idler pulley will 'float' so
that tension is applied equallyto both belts 2. If the belt should slip while drilling, adjustthe belt
tension.
