SAFETY SAFETY READ MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS BELOW WILL RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury. Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury. Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, MAY result in minor or moderate injury and damage to the machine.
12. DO NOT force the tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was designed. 13. Use correct tool. DO NOT force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. 14. Wear proper apparel. DO NOT wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry; and tie back hair. 16. Use proper extension cord. When using an extension cord, make sure it is in good condition.
SAFETY Avoiding Potential Injuries Figure 2. Keep fingers away from spinning drill bits, cutters, and sanding surfaces. Figure 1. Never drill while holding the workpiece by hand. Figure 3. Remove switch safety key when not in use.
ELECTRICAL 110V Operation The SHOP FOX® W1669 and W1670 Radial Drill Presses operate at 110 volts only. The motor supplied with your new drill press is rated at 1⁄2 HP and will draw approximately 5 amps. When choosing an outlet for this machine, consider using one with a 15 amp circuit breaker or fuse. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the electrical load being applied by the drill press. Add up the load ratings of all machines on the circuit.
ASSEMBLY Use the list below and Figure 5 to inventory your shipment before beginning assembly. If any parts are missing, call Woodstock International, Inc. at 360-734-3482 or tech-support@shopfox.biz. While the main components of the SHOP FOX® W1669 and W1670 Drill Presses are assembled at the factory, some assembly is required. The following order of procedures is the recommended sequence. EYE HAZARD! Wear safety goggles during all assembly procedures.
Base and Column For maximum stability, secure the W1670 floor-model drill press to a sturdy surface like a floor or a 4' x 4' x 3⁄4" piece of plywood. For the W1669 bench-model, secure it to a sturdy workbench or tool table. 1. TIPPING HAZARD! Never mount a drill press to a mobile base. Mount the drill press base to a sturdy surface or the drill press may tip and cause injury. UNPLUG THE MACHINE! • If installing the W1670 to a concrete floor, do these steps: a.
Table Support The W1669 comes with a one geared table bracket. The W1670 comes with a geared table bracket and table support arm, which allows the distance between the column and table to be adjusted. No table support parts are interchangeable between the two drill presses. Pinion Gear Worm Gear To install the table support assembly, do these steps: 1.
8. Seat the rack tapered-point into the bevel that is cut into the column support tube (see Figure 12). Tapered Rack Point and Column Support Tube Bevel. 9. Slide the column ring onto the column with the inside bevel in the down position until the rack tapered-point seats into the bevel (see Figure 13). 10. Position the column ring so the table bracket and rack can just rotate around the column without binding. 11. Carefully, snug the set screw to hold the column ring in place.
Headstock The headstock is secured with a set screw so it is aligned with the drill press base for balance and weight distribution. DO NOT over tighten the set screw, or you will bend the column or strip the threads. Locking Gib GET help to lift the headstock, or you may seriously hurt your back or drop the headstock. To install the headstock assembly, do these steps: Figure 14. Locking gib installation. ASSEMBLY 1.
Drill Chuck and Spindle Your keyed drill chuck attaches to the drill spindle. When properly joined, the JT-33 tapers on the spindle and inside the chuck create an almost permanent connection. To install the drill chuck, do these steps: 1. Clean the drill chuck and spindle with mineral spirits and follow all safety warnings on the container (see Figure 17). Note: Failure to clean the tapered mating surfaces of the spindle and drill chuck may result in a loose or wobbly chuck. 2.
ADJUSTMENTS Belt Tension During the life of your drill press you will use different belt and pulley combinations. No matter which pulley combination you use, make sure that the belt is tensioned properly UNPLUG the drill press before any assembly, adjustment, maintenance, or belt changing procedures. Otherwise serious personal injury may occur! To adjust the drive belt tension, do these steps: Figure 19. Open belt safety cover. 1. UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS! 2.
Feed Shaft Spring Tension The feed shaft return spring is adjusted at the factory; however, during the life of the drill press you may want to adjust the feed shaft return spring to a greater tension for a stronger quill return. Locking Lug WEAR safety goggles and gloves when adjusting the feed shaft spring. Serious injury may occur if this warning is ignored! Jam Nut and Cover Nut Spring Lock Cover To adjust the feed shaft spring tension, do these steps: Figure 22.
7. Engage the next available spring-cover lock slot with the locking lug and hold the spring lock cover tightly against the side of the headstock (see Figure 24). Lock Lug Cover Nut 8. Snug the cover nut against the spring cover just until the nut stops, and then backoff the nut approximately 1⁄3 turn, or just enough so there is no binding anywhere along spindle travel path. 9. Hold the cover nut and tighten the jam nut against the cover nut. Quill-Shaft Screw Figure 24.
Table The table can be adjusted for height, rotation, and angle. The W1670 adds the fourth adjustment of table distance from column. Note: Table or table support parts are not interchangeable between the W1669 and the W1670 drill presses (see Figures 27 and 28). To adjust the table, do these steps: 1. Loosen the table lock lever. 2. Turn the hand crank to raise or lower the table. 3. Tighten the table lock lever. Figure 27. W1669 Table support assembly. 4.
OPERATIONS Test Run This drill press will perform many types of operations that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incorrectly. WEAR safety goggles and a respirator during drilling or sanding operations. Otherwise serious personal injury may occur! The instructions in this section are written with the understanding that the operator has the necessary knowledge and skills to operate this machine.
Headstock To drill wide workpieces up to 34" in diameter, you can slide the headstock in and out to increase the distance between the drill chuck and the column up to 17". You can also tilt the headstock from 45° clockwise to 90° counterclockwise for drilling angled holes or for horizontal boring machine use. Using the slide and tilt features, you can drill a line of straight or angled holes without the need to reposition your workpiece after drilling each hole.
Changing Drill Bits The chuck supplied with your W1669 or W1670 drill press accepts drill bits from 1/32" to 5⁄8''. Follow the steps below to safely swap drill bits or sanding spindles. TURN OFF and UNPLUG the drill press, and wait until all working parts are stopped before you attempt to change drill bits. Otherwise, severe injury may occur! To change a drill bit or sanding drum, do these steps: Figure 33. Installing a drill bit. 1. UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS! 2.
Speed Changes The Model W1669 and W1670 Radial Drill Press has 5 speeds ranging from 550 to 3470 RPM. To find your needed drilling speed and pulley combination, refer to the speed chart located under the belt guard; or go to Page 22 and refer to the Drill Press RPM Chart. Never operate drill press with belt cover in the open position. Your hand may become trapped in a belt and serious personal injury will occur. UNPLUG the drill press before changing speeds to avoid accidental start up.
Drill Press RPM Chart Use Figure 37 to select the optimum motor-to-spindle pulley ratio for drilling, cutting, and sanding operations. for example the above figure shows the belt in the C position on the spindle pulley and the #3 position on the motor pulley, which will give a speed of 1,520 RPM. Refer to the Drill, Cutter, and Saw RPM Chart on Page 23 for suggested tool RPMs. Figure 37. Drill Press RPM Chart.
