'' Oscillating Drill Press is its sanding capa-

bility. The drill press can be converted from

drilling operations to sanding operations in just

a few steps.

To use the oscillating feature, do these steps:

1. UNPLUG THE DRILL PRESS!

2. Remove the spindle handles.

3. Lift the belt cover and remove the round

belt located on the storage bracket under

the speed chart, as shown in

Figure 43.

4. Stretch the belt onto the top groove in the

spindle and oscillating pulley, as shown in

Figure 44.

5. Close the cover. The motor will not start

until the cover is closed.

6. Loosen the jam nut for the depth stop and

adjust both nuts until they are positioned

at the top of the depth stop rod. Tighten

the jam nut (see

Figure 45).

UNPLUG the machine and

remove all handles before

using the oscillating fea-

ture. The handles swing

during operation.

Figure 45. Back-off the depth stop nuts.

Figure 44. Stretch the belt to fit on pulleys.

Using the Oscillator

ALWAYS back-off the depth stop completely

and secure the depth stop nuts before using

the oscillating feature. If the depth stop is

left adjusted for a shallow hole, or the nuts

rattle down to the stop while in operation,

the depth stop will bottom out and break

the oscillator.
