Installing Feed Handles; Installing The Chuck - RIDGID DP1500 Owner's Manual

Installing Feed Handles

1. Locate three (3) feed handles among loose parts.
2. Screw the feed handles into the threaded holes in the
hub and tighten.
3. Tighten feed handles using M24 wrench.
Installing the Chuck/Arbor Assembly
1. Clean the tapered surfaces on the arbor and spindle
with a clean cloth. Make sure there are no foreign par-
ticles sticking to these surfaces. The slightest piece of
dirt on these surfaces will prevent the arbor from seat-
ing properly. This will cause the drill to "wobble".
2. Slide arbor into spindle on drill press.
3. Push up on chuck/arbor assembly as you rotate them.
You will feel rectangular end of arbor slip into a notch in
the spindle.
WARNING: Make sure the rectangular end of the
arbor has slipped into the notch in the spindle
before going on the step 4. Failure to follow this
direction may allow the chuck to come loose dur-
ing operation, fly out and hit the operator.
