Double Insulated tools are equipped with
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than

Safety Rules for Drill Press (continued)
This Drill Press was designed for drilling,
sanding, brushing, polishing or grinding
applications, other applications may present
hazards that cannot be adequately guarded.
If the side of
to perform the work, for example a sanding
drum, the workpiece must be positioned on
the side of the accessory that rotates against
the feed direction of the workpiece. Placing
the workpiece on the side of the accessory
where the feed direction and accessory
rotation are same may cause the workpiece
to be pulled by the rotating accessory and
lead to loss of control during operation.
Never start the tool when the bit is
engaged in the material.

control of the workpiece.
Do not reach in the area of the spinning
bit.
The proximity of the spinning bit to your
hand may not always be obvious. Workpiece
could shift or your hand could slip during
operation.

7. Insert the rotary tool into the press with
the shaft lock to the front. Clamp the tool
to the tool bracket by tightening the clamp
nut Figure 3).
NOTE: Model 398 mounts with shaft lock to
the back and cord to the right. Models 400
and 800 mount with shaft lock to the right.
NOTE: When clamping rotary tool in holder,
make sure tool is seated properly and vent
openings are not covered.
8. Twist the top tube counterclockwise to
loosen and enable the tube to be adjusted up or down. After desired height is
achieved, turn tube clockwise to tighten it
(Figure 4).
NOTE: Tube should not be extended when
tool is being used in tool holder.
Insert the cord into the cord clips (Figure
2). Holder will keep cord away from the
work area. Make sure there is sufficient
slack to keep the cord from being pulled
taut when the full stoke of the press is
used.
9. The Depth Stop is used when you wish
to drill holes to a measured depth. A
scale on the press housing is provided
for your convenience.
Set the depth stop adjustment to the
desired depth and tighten depth stop

are also provided on the depth gauge
and left side of the housing assembly
(See Figure 5). These screws allow for
micro adjustments to the drill press. Use
1.5mm allen wrench to make adjustments. Be carefull not to overtighten set
screws.

12. Mark the hole locations on the workpiece and center punch at these loca
tions. Center punching will prevent walking of the drill point and ensure proper
hole location. The benefits of center
punching are less drill breakage and
better hole size tolerance.
13. Secure the workpiece to the base before
drilling. This will keep the workpiece
from climbing the drill bit or spinning.
The benefit is safety and better quality
work. Hold down clamps (not included)

use a small utility vise for holding the
workpiece when drilling (Figure 6).
14. Loosen the Height Adjustment Lock

tube until drill bit tip is near the workpiece. (A maximum of 1/4" between drill
bit tip and workpiece is recommended.)

Figure 6. Workpiece Hold Downs
Clamps (not supplied)
Figure 7. Round Workpiece
Helpful hints
When drilling round pieces, use a “V” block or
vise. To drill a hole in the center of a round
piece, a center punch mark is necessary
(Figure 7). Use center punch to make center
punch mark (not included).
Avoid force feeding to such an extent that the
motor speed is noticeably reduced. Also,
feed carefully when approaching point of
breakthrough. This will avoid making ragged
breakthrough edges.
For accurate drilling, lower the tool to a location where the end of the drill bit is within 1/4"
of the workpiece before advancing the handle for feeding the drill. Using minimum
stroke and center punching at the location to
be drilled will ensure accurate drilling.
Making optional hold down clamps for
your Work Station 220
Hold down clamps can be fabricated out of
wood, steel or aluminum, depending on your
application.
1. Cut or saw material to desired length,
width and height.
2. Drill a hole using a 5/16" or 21/64" drill
bit in the desired location, through the
clamp.
3. Mount the hold down clamps using a

4. Mount to base by sliding the head of the
carriage bolt up through the bottom of
the base with the wing nuts on top.
When using hold down clamps on workpieces larger than 1/4" in thickness, always
use a spacer block to support the back side
of the clamp (Figure 8). For the best support,
the spacer block should be cut about 1/8"
shorter in height than the workpiece.
