OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Before using this machine, the operator should carefully
read over this operation manual and acquaint himself with the
construction, controls and drive system of the drill press.
SELECT THE SPEED
1. The material you are drilling into and the size of hole you are planning to
make should determine the speed at which you set the drill press. As a
rule of thumb, small drill bits require more speed than large drill bits and
soft materials require more speed than hard ones.
2. Select the speed by moving the belt to the appropriate pulleys.

DRILL BIT

1. Insert the drill bit into the chuck (N, fig 4 & 5) far enough to obtain
maximum grip from the chuck jaws. Make sure the drill bit is centered in
the chuck.
2. Insert the chuck key (q, fig 3) and turn it clockwise to tighten (and
counter-clockwise to loosen) the drill bit. It is good practice to turn the
chuck key in each of the three holes of the chuck when tightening it.
3. Before the final tightening with the chuck key, be sure the drill bit is
centered in the chuck jaws.
4. Tighten the chuck sufficiently to prevent the bit slipping in the jaws
during drilling. As a test, turn the drill press on and immediately off to
check if the drill bit wobbles.
LASER
1. Place a work piece on the table.
2. Turn the laser switch on (press I).
DANGER! Do not stare directly at the laser beam. Eye damage may
occur if you deliberately stare into the beam.
3. Lower the drill bit (not turning) to touch the work piece. The two laser
lines should cross where the drill meets the work piece.
4. If the laser needs to be adjusted:
● Using a hex wrench, turn the laser adjustment hex screws counter-
clockwise.
● Move the laser light housing until the two lines intersect where the drill
meets the work piece. DO NOT stare directly at the laser lines.
● Re-tighten the adjustment hex screws .

WORK LIGHT

You may want to light up the work table and eliminate shadows on the
work piece.
To turn on the work light, move the work light switch located below the drill
press' main switch (fig 9) to ON (I).
