6.0 Installation Guide
6.0 Installation Guide
Refer to the parts lists and drawings in the technical manual for part identification and orientation, as
necessary.
All guards and instruction plates are installed for your safety and information and must remain on the
machine as shipped from the factory.
6.1 Uncrating the Paper Drill
Unless otherwise specified, this machine is shipped in a wooden crate completely assembled. The
machine should be unpacked by carefully removing the wood so as not to damage any of the ma-
chine parts. It is held onto the skid with lag bolts through the inside of machine frame. Remove the
lag bolts and carefully position the machine on the floor. The machine can be safely be picked up by
sliding the forks of a fork lift under the base of the machine or by removing the chip drawer and sliding
the forks under the chip drawer slide brackets (take care not to hit or damage the hydraulic unit in the
rear of the machine). Immediately after uncrating, check off parts received against the packing list.
Also, examine for any physical signs of damage incurred during shipping. The machine is inspected
before and after it is crated at our plant. The responsibility for filing a claim against the carrier for
damages incurred during shipment rests with the receiver of goods (FOB our factory).
Clean all parts with a commercial cleaning solvent before installing or using the machine.
6.2 Power Hook Up
Always disconnect the power when cleaning, servicing, or lubricating your
drill, see Power Lockout Procedure page 4.
For satisfactory operation, be sure that your machine is wired for the correct phase and voltage and
has adequate power. The correct electrical specifications for your machine are shown on the serial
plate. Check the machine serial plate before connecting the power. There is a junction box located
on the left side of the machine with wires for power and a ground lug. After connecting power, briefly
start and stop the machine and check motors for proper rotation. If incorrect, disconnect the power
and switch any two leads coming to the machine.
Watch Setup Voltage- Inadequate power to the machine can be a major source of problems. Too
many machines on the same circuit will reduce the power to each machine. Inadequate voltage will
frequently cause overheating, loss of power, and in extreme cases, failure to operate. Test your volt-
age when the shop is at actual working levels. Challenge recommends a dedicated line with a lock-
able disconnect to provide adequate power for this machine.
SHOCK HAZARD! Always disconnect power at main power panel be-
fore working on the machine. Lock it out to prevent accidental power up. (See Power Lockout
Procedure page 4).
Important: You must have an adequate size circuit and heavy enough wiring for this machine. The
circuit size should be a minimum of 20% greater than the amperage rating on the machine name-
plate. If a wire is run over 75 feet (23 meters), the next size wire should be used. Check local electri-
cal codes.
