Do not attempt to operate machine if you are not completely familiar 
with its operation. Obtain immediate advice from a supervisor, 
instructor, or other qualified personnel.

Use of this machine requires that you give your work your undivided 
attention, and careless acts or not paying close attention to work 
being performed may result in serious injury to yourself and/or 
others. Never operate this or any machine under the influence of 
drugs, alcohol, or any medication that may impair judgment. 

Do not bore warped workpieces. The workpiece must sit flat on the 
table without rocking.  

Dust created by manufacturing activities may be harmful to your 
health. Your risks from exposure may vary. Always work in a well-
ventilated area and wear safety approved, protective dust masks 
specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles. 

1.  Turn on air supply and power supply to machine.

2.  Place the workpiece in the desired reference position against 

the fences and/or flip stops.

3.  Bore your workpiece:

a.   If in manual mode, press the Start button to begin drill 

rotation, then depress the foot pedal to process boring 
work; the drill spindles will run continuously, even in the 
lowered/back position. Press the Stop button to stop drill 
rotation.

b.   If in automatic mode, press the foot pedal; the drill spindles 

will run automatically when the boring head carriage moves 
up/forward and stop when it returns to the lowered/back 
position.

4.  Remove the workpiece.
