Figure 11 

18. Thoroughly clean spindle, arbor and chuck 

(Figure 12) with a soft rag and solvent, such as 
mineral spirits.  

Important:

 These three pieces must be free of 

any rust protection, or lubricant. Any grease or 
residue in these areas can cause the pieces to 
separate, creating a safety hazard and 
potential damage to the tool. 

 

Figure 12 

19. Lower the table out of the way of the spindle 

area. 

20. Slide arbor (HP12) up into spindle. Turn the 

arbor as you push it, until the tang engages 
the slot in the spindle. 

21.  Push chuck (HP11) onto arbor. 

22.  Twist the chuck to completely retract the chuck 

jaws if they are exposed. 

23. Use a rubber mallet, or a steel hammer 

against a block of wood, to sharply tap the 
bottom of the chuck two or three times to seat 
the chuck/arbor assembly. 

Note:

 

Do not use a 

steel faced hammer directly against the 
chuck.

 

6.6

  Chuck key and wrench storage 

The chuck key can be stored in the clip on the 
collar (see Figure 8). 

 

The table locking wrench has a magnetic disc 
attached, and can be stored on any metal surface. 

Do not store in an area near the worktable, or 
where the wrench could vibrate off into moving 
parts.

 

7.0

  Electrical connections 

 

Electrical connections must 

be made by a qualified electrician in 
compliance with all relevant codes. This 
machine must be properly grounded to help 
prevent electrical shock and possible fatal 
injury.

 

The JDP-17 drill press is rated at 115V power, and 
comes with a plug designed for use on a circuit 
with a grounded outlet

 

that looks like the one 

pictured in 

A

, Figure 13. 

Before connecting to power source, be sure the 
switch is in 

off 

position.  

It is recommended that the drill press be connected 
to a dedicated 15 amp circuit with a circuit breaker 
or time-delay fuse marked “D”. 

Local codes take 

precedence over recommendations. 

7.1

  Grounding instructions 

1. All Grounded, Cord-connected Tools: 

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, 
grounding provides a path of least resistance for 
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. 
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having 
an equipment-grounding conductor and a 
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a 
matching outlet that is properly installed and 
grounded in accordance with all local codes and 
ordinances. 

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the 
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a 
qualified electrician. 

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding 
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The 
conductor with insulation having an outer surface 
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the 
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or 
replacement of the electric cord or plug is 
necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal. 

 

Check with a qualified 

electrician or service personnel if the 
grounding instructions are not completely 
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the 
tool is properly grounded. Failure to comply 
may cause serious or fatal injury.
