Operating Instructions
Leveling The Drill Bits
Page 08
Note:
We recommend using a piece of card stock on the Table
when leveling the drill bits to avoid drilling into the drill strip.
This will lengthen the life of your drill bits and keep them
sharper.
Step #5
To level the Drill Bits:
Insert the Spindle Rotation Tool (FMM9-956A) into
the end of the motor shaft through the opening in the
top of the machine shroud.
Swing the access cover located on the front of the
heads to one side allowing access to the spindle and
chuck.
Turn the Spindle Rotation Tool by hand until the insert
retainer screw can be seen in the opening.
Stepping slowly on the foot pedal, raise the table so
that it meets the bottom of the pressure foot assem-
bly.
Using the 5/32” Hex Wrench (HEX-532-T), loosen the
insert retainer screw and lower the chuck by pulling
down on it until the drill bits meet the table surface.
When the drill bit is just touching the drill strip,
re-tighten the insert retainer screw.
Repeat steps 1 - 6 on the remaing Drill Bits so that
they are all level with each other.
Remove the Spindle Rotation Tool from the motor
shaft.
Replace the access covers so that they cover the
openings.
