OPERATIONS

Once assembly is complete and adjustments are
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test
run the machine.

Make sure the starting switch is off. The pad-
dle is down for off. Make sure all the fasteners
and lock handles are tight.
Plug in the power
cord. Pull the START paddle. Make sure that
your finger is poised over the paddle, Figure 31,
just in case there is a problem. The drill press
should run smoothly, with little or no vibration
or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises
require you to stop the machine, wait for it to
stop moving, unplug the machine, investigate
and correct before further operation.

If source of an unusual noise or vibration is not
readily apparent, contact our service depart-
ment for help at 1-360-734-3482 or tech-sup-
[email protected].

Test Run

DO NOT investigate prob-
lems or adjust the drill
press while it is running.
Wait until the machine is
turned off, unplugged
and all working parts
have come to a complete
stop before proceeding!

Figure 31. Hand poised over stop paddle.

Always wear safety glass-

es when operating drill

press. Failure to comply

may result in serious per-

sonal injury.
