LASER OPERATION

CAUTION!
The laser light may seriously harm your
eyes if the beam is aimed directly at
them.
The CX614 drill press is equipped with a
laser to assist in accurate drilling in single
or repetitive drilling operations.
The laser projector is located under the drill
press head, just behind the shaft and
chuck.
The laser projects an 'X' onto the drill press
table and the projector itself may be moved
like a joystick. This may be re-aimed.
The best way of correctly aiming the laser
beam is to install the drill bit you intend to
use into the chuck.
Use a piece of scrap wood on the drill press
table.
Lower the drill bit so that it touches the
scrap wood.
Aim the laser so that the center of the "X" is
intersected by drill bit. If the drill bit
interferes with the laser beam, press the
point of the bit into the scrap and that mark
should be in the center of the "X".
As long as the drill press table remains in
that position the laser beam will remain as
the target.
