High / Low Gear Selector A gear transmission lever that selects Hi or Low speeds. IMPORTANT: Use only while the machine is stopped. Failure to do so will cause damage to the gear system. Drill Head The Drill Head attaches to the top of the column. It houses the motor, spindle, controls, and transfer mechanisms.
ELECTRICAL CAUTION: HAVE ELECTRICAL UTILITIES CONNECTED TO MACHINE BY A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN! Check if the available power supply is the same as listed on the machine nameplate. WARNING: Make sure the grounding wire (green) is properly connected to avoid electric shock. DO NOT switch the position of the green grounding wire if any electrical plug wires are switched during hookup.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
SET UP AND ADJUSTMENTS Adjusting the Machine Head Height WARNING: Failure to lock the collar can result in personal injury or damage to the machine. The machine head is lowered for shipping and must be raised before operating. 1. Unlock the table by turning crankshaft (K) counterclockwise (ccw).
Adjusting the Gear Rack Height WARNING: Failure to lock the collar can result in personal injury or damage to the machine. To raise the table to an adequate working height requires raising of the column gear rack. 1. Lock the table by turning crankshaft (K) clockwise (cw). 2.
OPERATION CAUTION: Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges. When handling large heavy materials make sure they are properly supported. Drilling 1. Load and secure the piece part to the table. 2.
Tapping 1. Load and secure the piece part to the table. 2. Secure tapping tool in the chuck. 3. Unlock the table, adjust to the desired height, and relock the table. 4. Adjust the safety guard up or down as needed. 5.
Removing Tooling From Spindle 1. Disconnect machine from the power source. 2. Place a piece of wood on the table for protection. 3. Position the worktable approximately 10” under the bit and lower the spindle about 6”. 4. Place the drift key (AM) into the slot (AN) of the quill and tap the end of the drift key with a hammer until the bit or chuck arbor falls out.
DRILLING RECOMMENDATIONS Drilling Speeds The speed of a drill is usually measured in terms of the rate at which the outer periphery of the tool moves in relation to the work being drilled. The common term for this is Surface Feet per Minute (SFM).

Return Spring The spindle return is preset by the manufacturer and should not need adjustment. If future attention is ever required, proceed as follows: 1. Do NOT remove spring cap. 2. Loosen screw (A) just enough to rotate spring cap (B) past pin (Inside case.
• Re-fill tank with coolant solution. Oils for Lubricating Coolant Any 10:1 (water to coolant) solution will work, however we recommend Baileigh B-Cool 20:1 (water to coolant) biodegradable metal cutting fluid. It has excellent cooling and heat transfer characteristics, is non-flammable, and extends tool and machine life. Each gallon of concentrate makes 21 gallons of coolant.
Motor / Drive Belt Replacement 1. Disconnect machine from power source. Disconnect electrical power to drill press to avoid possibility of inadvertent operation and exposure to potentially lethal voltage levels. Note: Prefer to the parts diagram as needed to aid in disassembly and assembly. 2.
