W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press ELECTRICAL ELECTRICAL The machine must be properly set up before it is safe to operate. DO NOT connect this machine to the power source until instructed to do so in the "Test Run" portion of this manual. 110V Operation The Model W1668 is wired for 110V operation. We recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit size below as a minium.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press SETUP Unpacking This machine has been carefully packaged for safe transportation. If you notice the machine has been damaged during shipping, please contact your authorized Shop Fox dealer immediately. Inventory The following is a description of the main components shipped with the Model W1668. Lay the components out to inventory them. Keep machine disconnected from power until instructed otherwise.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Base and Column The base and column must be securely mounted, so the machine will not fall over. To install the base and column, do these steps: 1. Position the drill press base on a flat and stable surface. 2. Using two clamps, clamp the base to the mounting surface. 3. Use the holes provided in the bottom of the base as a drill guide, and drill holes in the mounting surface (see Figure 8). SETUP 4.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Table Support When secured to the column, the table support supports the table, provides smooth table height adjustment, and locks in position with firm lever torque. Additionally, when the table is rotated, the rack will slide with the table support. 12mm Lock Handle To install the table support, do these steps: 1.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press 6. Position the rack so the long un-toothed end is facing upward (see Figure 13). 7. Insert the rack into the table support bracket so the teeth face out and mesh with the pinion (see Figure 13). 8. While holding the rack in place, slide the table support bracket onto the column. 9. Allow the bracket and rack to slide down until the bottom of the rack bevel slips into the tapered shoulder on the column support.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Headstock The headstock must be tightened in position with two set screws, so the headstock is aligned with the drill press foot for balance and weight distribution. DO NOT over tighten the set screws and strip the threads or bend the column. Belt Cover Knob GET assistance before beginning the next step. The headstock is an awkward and heavy load. To install the headstock, do these steps: 1. Figure 16. Aligning the pocket in the headstock with the column.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Drill Chuck The drill chuck is seated to the spindle with a JT-33 tapered surface and a screw. 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. Failure to clean the tapered-mating surfaces of the spindle and drill chuck will result in the chuck falling off during use. 2.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press ADJUSTMENTS Belt Tension Motor Lock Screw The drill press main drive belts last a long time; however, during machine life, a belt may stretch slightly which can cause the pulleys to slip under a load. You will then need to adjust the motor-to-idler pulley belt tension to compensate for this normal stretching. NOTE: The spindle-to-idler pulley belt automatically adjusts to the correct tension when the motor-to-idler pulley belt tension is adjusted.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press 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 stronger return pressure. Cover Nut MAKE SURE your machine is unplugged during all assembly, adjustments, or maintenance procedures. Otherwise serious personal injury may occur! Jam Nut Spring Lock Cover Figure 24. Typical feed shaft return spring assy.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press 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 27). Cover Nut 8. Snug the cover nut against the spring cover just until the nut stops, and then back-off the nut approximately 1⁄3 turn, or just enough so there is no binding anywhere along complete spindle travel. 9. Hold the cover nut and tighten the jam nut against the cover nut (see Figure 27).
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Table Height and Tilt You can adjust the table height and tilt to accommodate for workpiece height or achieve special drilling/sanding angles. You can also move the table out of the way and use the drill press base as a table for drilling/sanding. ADJUSTMENTS To adjust the table, do these steps: 1. Loosen the table lock lever. 2. Turn the hand crank to raise or lower the table, as shown in Figure 30. 3.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Drilling Speed The Model W1668 13 1⁄4'' Oscillating Drill Press has 12 speeds ranging from 250 to 3050 RPM. Refer to the speed charts located under the belt guard while following the instructions below. Motor Lock Screw UNPLUG the drill press before changing speeds to avoid accidental start up. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Push Rod To change the drilling speed, do these steps: Figure 33. Loosening the lock knob. 1.
W1668 131⁄4" Oscillating Drill Press Drill Press RPM Chart Use Figure 35 to select the optimum motor-to-spindle pulley ratio for drilling, cutting, and sanding operations. The belt setting in the example in Figure 36 shows the spindle belt in the #1 spindle pulley position and the motor belt in the #7 motor pulley location. This will produce a speed of 1,870 RPM. Refer to the Drill, Cutter, and Saw RPM Chart on Page 21 for suggested tool RPMs. Figure 36. Drill Press RPM Chart.
