Ensure that the switch toggle, when removed, is kept in a secure place. Once removed, the drill press will not start without it. ADJUSTING THE WORK TABLE 1.The worktable (1) can be raised or low- ered on the drill press column (2) by loosening the table clamp (3). See Figure 12. 2.After the table is positioned at the desire height, LOCK the table in place by tightening the table clamp (3). NOTE: Final positioning of the table should always be made from the bottom to the up position. 3.The worktable (1) can be rotated 360 degrees around the column (2) by loos- ening the table clamp (3). Rotate the table to the desired position and LOCK the table in place by tightening the table clamp (3). See Figure 12. 20 19 OPERA TING THE DRILL PRESS The drill press is designed to use drill bits with a shank of 1/2 or less. The follow- ing will give the inexperienced operator practice with common drilling operations. Always use scrap material and do test procedures before working on the actual workpiece. These test runs will decrease as experience and confidence with the drill press increase. When the workpiece is long enough, place it on the worktable so that one end rests against the drill press column. This is usually the left side as you look to the rear of the drill press. In case the drill bit seizes in the workpiece, the drill press support will prevent the workpiece from spinning out of control. FAILURE to adhere to this step could result in possible severe injur y to the operator . OPERA TING THE ON/OFF SWITCH The drill press “ON/OFF” switch is located on the front of the drill press head. To turn the drill press “ON,” move the rocker -style switch up to the “ON” position . To turn the drill press “OFF ,” move the rocker -style switch down to the “OFF” position. Ensure the “ON/OFF” switch is in the “OFF” position before plugging the power cord into the AC power source. Ensure there are no tools or work pieces in contact with the drill bits, cutting tools, or sand- ing drum when the drill press is turned “ON.” Failure to obser ve these pro- cedures could result in damage to the drill press, tools, work pieces, and/or serious personal injur y to the operator or bystanders. LOCKING THE “ON/OFF” SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION 1 FIGURE 11. LOCKING THE “ON/OFF” SWITCH 1 23 FIGURE 12. ADJUSTING THE WORK TABLE 2 Anytime the drill press is not being used, the “ON/OFF” should be locked to prevent any unautho- rized use. 1.To LOCK the “ON/OFF” switch, grasp the switch toggle (1) and remove it from the “ON/OFF” switch (2). See Figure 11.
1. Lift up the pulley cover (1). 2. Release the belt tension by loosen- ing the tension lock knob (2) located on the side of the drill press head. Loosen the tension lock knob (2) by turning it counter clockwise. 3. Pivot the motor (3) towards the front of the drill press. 4. While holding the motor pivoted to the front of the drill press, position the belt (4) on the desired step of the motor pulley (5) and the spindle pulley (6). See Figure 14. 5. After attaining the desired spindle speed, pivot the motor (3) to the rear of the drill press and securely tighten the tension lock knob (2) by turning it clockwise. 6. The belt (4) should be tight enough to prevent any slippage. If the belt is overtightened, the life of the belt will be noticeably reduced. 7. Close the pulley cover (1). DRILLING HOLES TO SPECIFIED DEPTHS Disconnect drill press from AC power source and ensure the “ON/OFF” switch is in the “OFF” position. Failure to adhere to this warn- ing could cause severe, permanent injur y to the operator . A depth stop (1) is provided on the pinion shaft, allowing multiple holes to be drilled to a specific depth. See Figure 15.22 21 TIL TING THE WORKT ABLE ADJUSTING THE DRILL PRESS SPINDLE SPEED A spindle speed and pulley/belt arrangement chart is posted inside the pulley cover . See the chart below . Refer to this chart whenever spindle speeds need to be changed. Disconnect drill press from AC power source and ensure the “on/off” switch is in the “OFF” position. Failure to adhere to this warn- ing could cause severe, permanent injur y to the operator . 1 5 4 6 23 FIGURE 14. ADJUSTING DRILL PRESS SPEED 3 2 14 FIGURE 13. TILTING THE WORK TABLE 1.The worktable (1) can be tilted to the left or right by loosening the pivot bolt (4) mounted beneath the worktable. See Figure 13. 2.Tilt the worktable (1) to the desired posi- tion and tighten the pivot bolt (4). 3.When returning the table to the level position, line up the register mark on the table with the tilt scale. This ensures the table sur face is positioned 90 degrees to the spindle. 4.A tilt scale (K) is provided on the table bracket casting (L) to indicate the degree of tilt. 5.A witness line and zero mark (1) are pro- vided on the table to ensure proper alignment with the tilt scale (2). 620 1100 2340 3100 1720
3. Turn the spring housing (5) counter- clockwise to increase the spring ten- sion or clockwise to decrease the spring tension. 4. Turn nut (4 - inside) until it contacts the spring housing (5). Back nut (4) out 1/4 turn and tighten it against nut (3 - outside) to hold the spring housing in place. 5. IMPOR TANT :The inside nut (4) should not touch the spring housing (5) after it has been tightened. CORRECT DRILLING SPEEDS The correct drilling speed is determined by type of material being drilled, the size of the hole, the type of the drill bit or cutter , and the desired quality of the hole. Always use the recommended speed for the drill bit and for the type of materials the workpiece is made of. If you have any questions as to the proper speeds or types of materials, contact Alltrade customer ser vice at 1-800-590-3723. WORKING WITH WOOD Twist drills, although designed for drilling metal, can also be use for drilling wood. However , it is recommended that machine spur bits or wood-boring bits be used for wood projects. These bits cut a flat bottom hole and are designed to remove to eas- ily remove wood chips. DO NOT USE hand bits designed for a hand-operated drill brace. These bits have screw tips and at the speeds used by the drill press, they would rapidly engage the workpiece and spin it around violently . For through boring, line up the spot where the hole is to drilled with the hole in the worktable. This permits the drill bit to pass cleanly through the workpiece without damaging the worktable. Scribe a vertical line on the front of the column and match- ing marks on the table bracket and the drill press head so that the table and drill press can be clamped in the center position at any height. To prevent splintering on the bottom of the workpiece, clamp a scrap piece of wood beneath the workpiece and allow the drill bit to enter it resulting in a clean hole on the workpiece. This also protects the point of the drill bit. 23 1. Insert drill bit (2) into drill chuck. 2. Lower the spindle (3) until the pointer (4) is in line with the mark on the scale (5). 3. Tighten the lock screw (6). 4. Return the spindle (3) to the up posi- tion.5. Place the workpiece on the drill press table and securely clamp it in place. 6. Raise the drill press table until the workpiece just touches the end of the drill bit (2). 7. Drill a test hole and check the depth. Make any adjustments as necessar y. ADJUSTING THE SPINDLE RETURN SPRING Disconnect drill press from AC power source and ensure the “ON/OFF” switch is in the “OFF” position. Failure to adhere to this warn- ing could cause severe, permanent injur y to the operator . The spindle return spring (1) is automatically returned to its upper position when the pinion shaft handles (2) are released. It is recommended that the pinion shaft handles (B) be allowed to return to the upper position slowly . DO NOT LET GO OF THE HANDLES after the hole has been drilled. This action will cause excessive wear and tear on spindle return spring. To adjust the spindle return spring, See Figure 15 and follow the steps below: 1. Loosen the two nuts (3 and 4). Ensure the housing stays engaged with the head casting. 2. While firmly holding the spring housing (5), pull out the housing until the boss is engaged with the next notch on the housing. 1 5 2 3 4 FIGURE 16. ADJUSTING SPINDLE RETURN SPRING FIGURE 15.

Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets. If the drill press must be used outside, use an extension cord labeled “W-A” or “W.” These extension cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the chances of electrical shock. If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carr y the amount of current necessar y for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi- ence a loss of power , excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number , the heavier the cord (see table below).

The workpiece should never be held in place by hand. The drill bit could seize in the metal at any time, especially when breaking through the backside of the workpiece. This could cause the workpiece to spin out of the operator’ s hand. The drill bit will be broken when the workpiece strikes the column. Failure to obser ve this precaution could result in damage to the workpiece, the drill press, and severe or permanent injur y to the operator . CONSUL T EXPER T ADVICE BEFORE DRILLING IN WORK PIECES MADE OF MAG- NESIUM. The friction generated by the drill bit could cause the magnesium to ignite resulting in a ver y intense fire that could cause severe burns to the operator and/or seriously damage the drill press. The workpiece must be clamped firmly while drilling. Tilting, twisting, or shifting not only results in a rough-drilled hole, but increases the risk of breaking the drill bit. For flat work, place the workpiece on a piece of scrap wood and clamp tightly to the worktable to prevent it from turning. If the shape of the workpiece is irregular and cannot be placed flat on the table, it should be securely blocked and clamped before attempting to use the drill press.MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING LASER MAINTENANCE For the best laser per formance, per form the following maintenance regularly: 1.Disconnect machine from power source. 2. Carefully clean sawdust from each laser lens. Do not use solvents of any kind since they may damage the lens. Dust build-up can block the laser and prevent it from accurately indicating the line of drilling. ACCESSORIES Optional accessories for the drill press can include wire-brush wheels that can be used for cleaning and layered cloth wheels that can be used for polishing and buff- ing. Contact ALL TRADE Customer Ser vice at 1-800-590-3723 (toll free) to find out what accessories are available for the drill press. Only use accessories that are designed to fit your partic- ular drill press. These accessories should be specifically labeled to match the speed and arbor size of the drill. Failure to use the proper accessories could result in property damage, damage to the grinder , and serious person- al injur y to the operator .
