General International DP2003 Manuel D'instructions Et D'assemblage page 16

WARNING! Be sure the drill press is turned off and unplugged at any
time the belt & pulley cover is open and you have your hands in that
area.
6. Place the belts on the three pulleys according to the needed spindle
speed.
7. Re-tension the belts when they are set in position by pushing the
motor away from the spindle (front) end of the drill press head and
re-tightening the belt tension lock knobs. Turn the belt tension lever
counter-clockwise.
8. The belt should be tight enough to prevent slippage. Belt tension is set
correctly if a belt deflects about 1/2" (13 mm) when thumb pressure is
applied to it halfway between each set of pulleys.
9. Close the belt / pulley cover.
TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
TABLE HEIGHT
1. Raise or lower the table by loosening the table support lock handle (K,
fig 4) and turning the crank handle (I, fig 5) until the table is at the height
desired.
2. Be sure to re-tighten the table support lock handle before drilling.
TABLE ROTATION
Rotate the table around the column:
1. By loosening the table support lock handle and moving the table around
the column to the placement desired.
2. The table height adjustment rack should also slide around the column
as you do this.
3. Line up the drill bit with the table center hole when through-boring to
preclude damage to the table.
4. Be sure to re-tighten the table support lock handle before drilling.
The table can also spin on its own axis
1. Loosen the table lock handle (G, fig 4 & 5).
2. Turn the table to the desired position.
3. Re-tighten the table lock handle.
TABLE TILT
The table has a range of tilt available from 0 to 45° to the left and right.
1. Locate the table bevel lock bolt underneath the table.
2. To tilt the table, loosen the M16 x 35 mm table bevel lock screw (F, fig 4
& 5) under the table with a wrench.
3. Tilt the table to the desired angle (you can use the bevel scale on the
support as a rough gauge).
4. Re-tighten the table bevel lock bolt.
NOTE: It is a good idea to always check that the angle is correct with a
protactor or a combination square.
The table should be squared to the head for normal drilling operations.
1. Use the bevel scale on the support as a rough gauge and set the table
at 0°.
2. Insert a 3" (7.6 cm) long drill bit into the chuck and tighten. Make sure it
is caught straight in the jaws.
3. Raise and lock the table at about 1" (2.5 cm) below the tip of the drill bit.
4. Use a combination square placed on the table to check. The drill bit
should be parallel to the straight edge of the square.
5. Make any adjustment needed by loosening the table bevel lock bolt with
a wrench and tilting the table
6. Tighten the bevel lock bolt.
