Castle 30 Express - Manual (Page 6)

Now that the tape is calibrated you are ready to drill your first test panel.
ƒ The Front Auto-Fence is factory set to 37mm from the center of the Drill Bits to
the front edge of the board.
.
ƒ Insert your first test panel under the Clamp Beam with the front edge of the panel
facing in, toward the Front Auto-Fence and the bottom edge of the panel toward
the Right Stop. If the Front Fence is up tap the Foot Pedal to toggle it down.
ƒ The panel should now be in a position for the Clamp to come down and the Drill
Bits to come up from the bottom to drill the first row of holes.
ƒ Press the green Start Button. (The red Safety Button must be pulled out to the
ready position before green button will activate your machine.)
ƒ Step on the Foot Pedal and hold it down until the drill completes the drilling cycle
(approximately 3 seconds). You may hear a released air sound after the panel has
been drilled. This is normal.
ƒ NOTE: If at any time during the clamping and drilling cycle you release the Foot
Pedal, the drilling process will be interrupted and will stop drilling. The Clamp will
release, the Auto-Fence will change position, and the drill will retract to the ready
position.
This has completed the first row of holes in the under side of your panel.
