2. DISCONNECT DRILL PRESS FROM POWER!
3. Verify that the drill press table is properly leveled,
and adjust as required.
4. Place the base so the live center is located in the
center of the drill press table, as shown in Figure 3.
5. Fasten the base to the table with the carriage bolts,
flat washers, and hex nuts, but do not fully tighten
the hex nuts yet.
6. Install a drill bit or dowel in the chuck, lower the
chuck so the tip of the drill bit or dowel just touches
the point of the live center.
7. Move the base so the tip of the live center is aligned
with the spindle centerline, as shown in Figure 4.
Next, tighten the base hex nuts.
8. Retract the drill press spindle, and fasten the tool
rest foot onto the base with the cap screw, as shown
in Figure 5. Later, use the workpiece to estimate
where to tighten the tool rest in place to achieve
1
a gap of
⁄8" to 1⁄2" between the workpiece and the
tool rest.
