Auth/Use Notes
These notes are for reference after authorization by a person.
Only use drills and accessories with correct shank taper and tang
Work piece needs secure mounting due to spindle's high torque
No through hole (table designed for coolant), must use vise
No quill stop, must set table or head height to prevent drilling into table
Don't force gear selectors, hand turn spindle as needed to align gears
Gears reverse spindle, must turn power switch to appropriate side for correct spindle rotation direction
Power switch has two speeds to each side
Drill shanks must be firmly seated in taper
To remove drill, lower spindle to expose the slot in the quill, turn the spindle by hand until the quill slot lines up with the spindle slot, insert the #3 drift into the slot with the curved edge facing up, grasp drill, tap drift with hammer
