1. Remove the six screws (A) Fig. 30 that hold the top
cover in place, and remove the top cover.
2. The variable speed pulleys should be oiled weekly
with a few drops of light machine oil in the two oil holes
(B) Fig. 31, located on top of the variable speed pulleys.
Oil the holes when the drill press is
turned OFF. Then turn the machine ON and run
through the low and high speed ranges a few times.
KEEP MACHINE CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed
air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could
possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
Wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses while
using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your machine fail to start, check to make sure the
prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the
outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers
in the line.
