EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong ground­ing plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug. When using a power tool at a considerable distance from the power source, use an extension cord heavy enough to carry the current that the tool will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and causing the motor to overheat. Use the chart provided below to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) should be used.
**Ampere rating (on tool faceplate)
0-2.0 2.1-3.4 3.5-5.0 5.1-7.0 7.1-12.0 12.1-16.0

**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit.
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
When working with the tool outdoors, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the let­ters “WA” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of this tool is approximately 3,050 rpm. This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three tools.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conduc­tor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet like the one shown in figure 1. It also has a grounding pin like the one shown.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged re­place immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This tool is powered by a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.

If the drill press is to be used in a permanent location, secure it to a workbench or other stable surface.
If the drill press is to be used as a portable tool, fasten it permanently to a mounting board that can easily be clamped to a workbench or other stable surface. The mounting board should be of sufficient size to avoid tipping while drill press is in use. Any good grade plywood or chipboard with a 3/4 in. thickness is recommended.
Mark holes on surface where drill press is to be mounted
using holes in drill press base as a template for hole pat­tern.
Drill holes through mounting surface.Place drill press on mounting surface, aligning holes in
the base with holes drilled in the mounting surface.
Insert bolts (not included) and tighten securely with lock
washers and hex nuts (not included).
If lag bolts are used, make sure they are long enough to
go through holes in drill press base and material the drill press is being mounted to. If machine bolts are used, make sure bolts are long enough to go through holes in drill press, the material being mounted to, and the lock washers and hex nuts.
NOTE: All bolts should be inserted from the top. Install
the lock washers and hex nuts from the underside of the workbench.
Once the drill press is securely mounted on a sturdy sur­face:
Check for vibration when the motor is switched ON.
Adju st and retighten t he mo unt ing hardware as
necessary.
Check the table assembly to assure smooth movement
up and down the column.
Check to assure that the spindle shaft moves smoothly.

ASSEMBLY
CHECKING/ADJUSTING LASER ALIGNMENT
See Figure 15.
Check the laser alignment to ensure the intersection of the laser lines is precisely at the spot where the drill bit meets the workpiece. If it is not, the laser lines should be adjusted using the laser adjustment knobs located on opposite sides of the head assembly.
Mark an “X” on a piece of scrap wood.
Insert a small drill bit into the chuck and align its tip to
the intersection of the lines of the “X”.
Secure the board to the table.
Turn on the laser and verify the laser lines align with the
“X” on the workpiece.
If the laser lines do not align, loosen the set screws on
each of the laser housings with a hex key and rotate the laser adjustment knobs until the lines meet in the center of the “X”. Retighten the set screws to secure.

OPERATION
DRILLING
See Figure 20.
Using a clamping device, secure the workpiece to the
worktable. To protect the top surface of the workpiece, use a piece of scrap wood between the vise and the workpiece.
Select the proper drill bit based on the hole size desired.
For large holes, drill a pilot hole first, using a smaller diameter bit.
Select and set the recommended spindle speed. Refer
to Changing Speeds in the Adjustments section of this manual.
Set table assembly to desired height. Refer to Adjust-
ing Table Height in the Adjustments section of this
manual.
If desired, set feed shaft at desired spindle depth. Refer
to Adjusting Depth Gauge in the Adjustments section of this manual.
Make sure the work table is free of all loose objects and
the bit is not in contact with the workpiece.
Plug electrical cord into power supply and turn switch
ON. Make sure spindle rotates freely.
Slowly lower drill bit into workpiece. Do not force the bit;
let the drill press do the work.
Once the hole is completed, allow the spindle to return to
its normal position. This will automatically raise the chuck and bit.

DRILLING TIPS
If a large hole is needed, it’s a good idea to drill a smaller
pilot hole before drilling the final one. Your hole will be more accurately positioned, rounder, and the bits will last longer.
If the hole is deeper than it is wide, back off occasionally
to clear the chips.
When drilling metal, lubricate the bit with oil to improve
drilling action and increase bit life.
As you increase the drill size, you may need to reduce
the spindle speed.
If drilling a through hole, make sure that the bit will not
drill into the table after moving through the workpiece.
