SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION Grizzly Imports, Inc. is proud to offer the Model G1199/G1200 Drill Press. This drill press is a part of Grizzly’s growing family of fine woodworking and metalworking machinery. When used accord- ing to the guidelines stated in this manual, you can expect years of trouble-free, enjoyable oper- ation.
11. NEVER STAND ON, OR LEAN ON THE TOOL. Doing so could cause injury. G1199/G1200 Drill Press 12. USE SAFETY GLASSES AND EAR PRO- TECTION. Also use a DUST MASK if the operation is dusty.
Unpacking The Model G1199/G1200 Drill press is shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully packed car- ton. If you discover the machine is damaged after you’ve signed for delivery, please call Customer Service immediately for advice. Save the containers and all packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent.
Clean up The column and other unpainted parts of the Model G1199/G1200 are coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove the protective coating with miner- al spirits and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points.
Circuit Requirements The motor supplied with the G1199/G1200 is a 110V single-voltage motor, prewired for 110V. Under normal use, the motor draws approximate- ly 9 amps @ 110V. We recommend using a 15 amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse for 110V operation.
Assembly is straight forward and with just a few tools you can do the entire job quickly and easily. This manual is written for the G1199/G1200 model. The only difference between the two regarding assembly is the length of the column.

Drill Chuck The Drill Press chuck and arbor must be mount- ed in the drill press spindle. The arbor has a #6 Jacobs Taper on one end and a #2 Morse Taper on the other. The #6 Jacobs Taper fits into the drill chuck and the #2 Morse Taper fits in the drill press spindle.
NOTE: The speed chart under the pulley cover reflects two different power cycles for the motor. Use the 60 cycles per second spindle R.P.M. ref- erence in the U.S.A. G1199/G1200 Drill Press Figure 10. Figure 11. -11-...
Spindle Adjustments To stop the vertical travel of the drill bit at a desired depth, loosen the scale set knob located on the feed shaft assembly, rotate the handles to the desired depth and tighten the scale set knob. Figure 12.
2. Rotate the spindle manually and line up the internal spindle slot with the slot on the side of the quill. The end of the drill chuck (the tang) should be visible through the slot at this point. 3. Insert the wedge shifter through the slot in the spindle with the tapered edge facing down.
Now that your drill press is assembled and in place, you are ready to begin using it. Your new drill press is a simple piece of equipment to set up and operate. It is a versatile tool that can be used to perform many different operations such as: Drilling, Boring, Sanding, Mortising and Shaping.
3. Install the bit so the chuck jaws will grab the major portion of the bit shank. Do not allow the chuck to grab the fluted body of the drill bit. 4. Tighten the chuck with the chuck key using all three key locations.
Drill Speed The best speed to use in any drill press operation is determined by; material, size of drill bit, type of drill bit or cutter and quality of cut desired. The smaller the drill bit, the greater the speed. In soft materials, the speed should be higher than for hard materials.
Do not attempt to open the chuck wider by forcing it.
