Assemble feed handle (Fig . 9)
1. Thread the three feed handle rods into the
holes on the feed hub.
2. Hand tighten the handle rods clockwise.
Note: One or two of the feed handle rods may
be removed if an unusually shaped workpiece
interferes with handle rotation.
Note: It is recommended to securely tighten
the feed handle rods with an adjustable
wrench.
Mount the drill press
(Fig . 10a & 10b)
If the drill press is to be used in a permanent
location, secure it to a workbench or other
stable surface (Fig. 10a).
1. Mark holes on surface where drill press is to
be mounted using holes in drill press base
as a template for hole pattern.
2. Drill holes through mounting surface.
3. Place drill press on mounting surface,
aligning holes in the base with holes drilled
in the mounting surface.
4. Insert 3-1/2" (89mm) bolts (not included) and
tighten securely with lock washers and hex
nuts (not included).
5. If lag bolts are used, make sure they are
long enough to go through holes in drill
press base and material the drill press is
being mounted to. If machine bolts are
used, make sure bolts are long enough to
go through holes in drill press, the material
being mounted to, and the lock washers and
hex nuts.
Note: All bolts should be inserted from the top.
Install the lock washers and hex nuts from the
underside of the workbench.
If you wish to be able to easily relocate the drill press, fasten it permanently to a mounting
board that can easily be clamped to a workbench or other stable surface. The mounting board
should be of sufficient size to avoid tipping while the drill press is in use. Any good grade
plywood or chipboard with a 3/4” (19 mm) thickness is recommended (Fig. 10b).
1. Secure the drill press to the mounting board using 3/8" (9.5mm) or 5/16'' (7.9mm) flat head
screws, lock washers and hex nuts (not included). The screw length must be at least 1-1/2”
(38 mm) more than the thickness of the mounting board plus the height of the base.
Note: For proper stability, holes must be countersunk so that the screw heads are flush with
the bottom surface of the mounting board plus the height of the base.
2. Securely clamp the mounting board to a workbench using two or more work clamps (not
included).
