4.0 Specifications
The JET Model J-1600R is a powerful and versatile radial arm drill press. The drill head is mounted on an arm
and can slide along the arm to position the spindle over the work piece. The arm itself can be rotated on its
support column to allow centering the spindle over the work piece.
Drilling can be performed manually or with power feed assistance. In addition, parameters of RPM, power feed
rate and drilling depth can be pre-set by the operator, using controls conveniently positioned on the drill head.
The drill has an automatic tool ejector, and hydraulic head and column clamping system.
The power train gears and spline shaft are made of high quality heat-treated and ground nickel chrome steel,
offering greater strength and smoothness to high-torque loads. The spindle is of case hardened steel and
supported by dual row taper roller and thrust ball bearings at the nose, with thrust and radial axis bearings at
the top. The frame is made of Meehanite® and high-tensile strength cast iron.
A precision machined box table allows convenient positioning and clamping of smaller work pieces. The box
table can be removed from the base to allow larger workpieces to be clamped on the base itself. Both table and
base have multiple T-slots for clamping set-ups.

12. Follow directions in section 8.0, Operation, to
check all operation functions of drill press. If
coolant is being used, put coolant in the sump
and test coolant delivery.
All lifting equipment must
be rated appropriately to safely sustain
weight of drill press. Do not allow anyone
near or beneath machine while it is being
moved.
4. Lift machine and position it over anchor bolts
in an area with good lighting, and a level and
well-supported floor.
5. Place provided leveling pads beneath base,
using appropriate spacing. Place a level (its
tolerance should be within 0.02mm/m) on box
table and level the machine.
6. The drill press MUST be anchored to floor.

6.4 Electrical Connections
Electrical set-up should be
performed only by a licensed electrician who is
familiar with national and local electrical codes.
This machine must be properly grounded to
help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal
injury.
Model J-1600R radial drills are tested before
shipping for all functions and circuits under
electrical power specified for the machine and
motors. The only hook-up requirement should be
for correct connection to an appropriate cutout on
an appropriate service branch.
Where the following instructions do not agree with
local electrical codes and procedures, the
applicable codes and procedures should be
followed, exclusively.
Wiring diagram
A wiring diagram for the drill press is found inside
the door of the electrical cabinet. A similar diagram
is shown in back of this manual. This diagram is for
reference by your licensed installing or servicing
electrician.
All three motors on the J-1600R are 3-phase
motors of the same voltage value. All control
circuits are 110 volt circuits. The motor’s circuit is
NOT fused. Thus, fuses for each leg of the 3phase service branch must be supplied by the installing electrician. If a service disconnect with
a fuse for each leg of the 3-phase branch is not
supplied, then none of the motors are protected
from electrical faults.
In addition to using a licensed electrician for
connection to the drill press service branch, the
servicing of components and circuits inside the
control box should be serviced only by a qualified
electrician. This includes fuse replacement, if
required. If any of these fuses, upon replacement,
should continue to fail at short service intervals, the
electrician should be asked to check all machine
components for excessive loads, short circuits or
other failures.
Electrical branch service
The machine is wired for either a 230V or 460V, 3phase service branch. The cable supplying the drill
press will be tagged with the voltage at which the
machine was tested and corresponding to the
customer's order.
If the tag has been lost, it will be necessary for you
to open the electrical cabinet on the rear of the drill
press and examine the connections on the
transformer found inside the box. The transformer
can be connected to either a 230 or 460 volt
source and its taps are labeled for voltage. By
locating the source tap on the transformer you will
be able to determine the branch voltage required.
A service disconnect is recommended. The use of
fuses or circuit breakers for each of the voltage
supply wires is required. Use fuses or circuit
breakers which are appropriate to the voltage for
the motor system delivered.
A positive cut-out/lock-out lever or rocker switch
should be located on the outside of the service
disconnect to allow the machine operator to
disconnect from the branch circuit when working
with tooling on the machine.
It is recommended that the 230 volt Drill Press be
connected to a dedicated 25 amp circuit with a 25
amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Connect the
460 volt drill press to a dedicated, 15 amp circuit
with 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Local codes take precedence over recommendations.
Connecting br anc h to drill p ress
1. Disconnect service branch to machine by
moving lever or rocker switch on cutout box to
OFF.
2. Connect the green wire (or green with white
trace) to the branch ground.
3. Connect the remaining three wires in the cable
(labeled R, S and T) to the three power lines in
the branch.
4. Turn power to the machine ON at the cutout
box.
5. Turn coolant switch (See Figure 10) to ON
position.
Make sure there is coola nt
in flood coolant system before operating
pump. Failure to comply may cause
damage to pump.
6. Observe rotation through glass atop pump.
The shaft should be rotating in direction of
arrow cast into pump assembly. If shaft is
rotating wrong direction, the power leads need
to be switched. Correct as follows:
7. Disconnect power to machine by turning it off
at cutout box.
8. Reverse any two of the power lead
connections, R, S or T.
9. Repeat steps 4, 5, and 6, above, and you
should observe pump shaft turning in proper
direction. Electrical service to machine is now
complete.

8.0 Operation
8. Re-establish power to machine, and the drill is
ready to use.
8.1 Clamping workpieces
To load/unload heavier workpieces, unlock arm
and rotate it out of the way. Lift the workpiece with
slings or other properly rated lifting equipment.
Both the box table and base surface are slotted to
accept a suitably sized T-slot clamp. Before
beginning any work on the drill press, anchor the
work piece, and box table if used, to be certain that
workpiece and/or box table will not move when tool
enters workpiece.
If box table will not be used, simply remove the
nuts at the base, and move table off using proper
lifting equipment.
Failure to properly anchor
workpiece and box table could result in
damage to machine, damage to workpiece, a nd
severe injury to machine operator. Never work
on drill press without clamping the materials
using a T-slot system set-up.
8.2 Tool insertion
The Model J-1600R uses a No. 5 Morse taper in
the spindle to secure tooling. Any drill, milling
cutter, or tool holder with an MT-5 can be inserted
into the quill.
The first step in removing or
inserting any tooling is to be absolutely certain
the machine cannot be accidentally started
during the insertion or removal operation. The
only way to be certain of this fact is to disconnect
power to machine. The service box should have a
cut-out switch or lever on the outside of the box.
Position switch or lever in the OFF position before
inserting or removing tooling.
To insert tooling:
1. Verify that machine is disconnected from
power.
2. Be certain the spindle is clean, free from oil,
and ready to accept the shank of any tooling.
3. Check the shank of tooling to be certain the
tooling is free from dirt, nicks or burrs. If nicks
or burrs are discovered, file or stone the shank
until it is smooth.
4. Pull the tooling ejection handle out to be
certain the tooling can be inserted. See Figure
10.
5. Be certain quill is in full UP position.
6. Slide shank of tooling into spindle until it seats.
7. Use a soft-faced mallet (such as lead, plastic,
brass, etc.) to give the tooling a sharp tap on
its tip. This will secure the tooling in the taper.
To remove tooling:
9. Verify that machine is disconnected from
power.
10. Place a wood block under the tooling in
spindle, to prevent it being damaged should it
fall out during the removal process.
11. Use the feed levers to lower quill enough to
allow tooling ejection handle to be pushed fully
inward.
12. While using leather gloves to hold the tooling
and prevent it from falling loosely out of the
spindle taper, use the feed levers to give the
quill a sharp upward stroke against the top of
its travel and the tooling will be released from
the taper in the spindle.
13. Remove tooling and pull tooling ejection
handle out to allow new tooling to be inserted.
8.3 Tool positioning over workpi ece
After workpiece has been clamped to base or
table, position the tooling over workpiece, using
any or all of the following methods:
1. Adjusting height of arm on support column.
2. Moving drill head along arm.
3. Rotating column upon which arm and head are
attached.
8.4 Unlocking arm and column
mechanisms
A motorized locking system is used to lock the
head to the arm, the arm to the column, and the
column to the base.
The buttons which control the locks are located in
center of drill head handw heel (see Figure 10).
