MAINTENANCE

MAINTAINING YOUR DRILL PRESS
WARNING
For your own safety, turn the switch "OFF" and remove
the plug from the power source outlet before maintaining
or lubricating your drill press.
Frequently blow out, using an air compressor or dust
vacuum, any dust that accumulates inside the motor.
A coat of automotive paste wax applied to the table and
column will help to keep the surface clean & help to avoid
rust.
To avoid shock or fi re hazard, if the power
cord is worn or cut in any way, have it replaced
immediately.
LUBRICATION
All of the drill press ball bearings are packed with grease
at the factory. They require no further lubrication.
Periodically lubricate the gear and rack for table
elevation, and the mechanism of the spindle the rack
(teeth) of the quill.
