Assembly and adjustments (continued)
Mount the drill press (Fig. 12)
Your drill press must be securely fastened through the
mounting holes (1) to a stand or work bench with
heavy-duty fasteners. This will prevent the drill press
from tipping over, sliding, or walking during operation.
IMPORTANT: If the stand or workbench has a
tendency to move during operation, fasten it securely to
the floor.
Install the chuck (Fig. 13)
1. Inspect and clean the taper hole in the chuck (1)
and the spindle (2). Remove all grease, coatings,
and particles from the chuck and spindle surfaces
with a clean cloth.
2. Open the chuck jaws (3) by turning the chuck barrel
clockwise by hand. Make sure the jaws are
completely recessed inside the chuck.
3. Seat the chuck on the spindle by placing a block of
wood (4) under the chuck (1) and tapping the wood
with a hammer (5) or tap the chuck with a rubber
mallet.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the chuck, make sure the jaws are completely recessed into the
chuck. Do not use a metal hammer directly to drive the chuck into the spindle.
