For your own safety and protection, do not attempt to operate this drill until it is
completely assembled and installed according to these instructions, and until
you understand the machines capabilities and the potential hazards associated
with it.
Step 1 The Manta I is shipped with the carriage mounted backwards on the
column. Lossen the knob, remove the carriage and orient it with the motor facing
forward.
WARNING
CAUTION
Be sure to hold the Manta when removing the vacuum base to prevent tipping
forward.
To set the Manta so that it will stand up, loosen the carraige lock knob (be sure
to hold the carraige) and move the carraige down to a position where the end of
the motor spindle just touches the ground.
Step 2 Install the leveling screws (4) by screwing them into base.
Step 3 Install the feed handles (1) and knobs (2) by screwing one knob onto
the end of the handle, then slip thru hub and attach other knob.
Turn the vacuum base over. Press the gasket into the groove in the underside of
the base. The gasket is cut, at the factory, to the correct length, so that the two
ends will butt together once the gasket is installed.
Step 4 Assemble the two pieces of the water valve, and install the valve, into
the water swivel, on the motor, just above the spindle (see motor literature).
Plug the cord from the motor into the upper outlet on the meter box (the one
opposite the motor on-off switch. The other outlet on the meter box is for the
vacuum pump.
