post into the correct location; ensure the latch is
flush with the work surface again before
proceeding.

material. Low gear for large drill bits and cutting

4. Add your required cutting tool to the drill’s chuck and tighten
firmly. If further height adjustment is required please refer to
stage 3.
5. The post lever can be fitted to either side to allow for left or
right handed use. Slide the front pin to the moving part of the
post and the other pin into the elongated hole on the stationary
part of the post. The drill should move down when the handle is
pulled downwards.
Use the post handle to pull down the drill press and make sure
the drill bit will not touch the work surface when it is fully pulled
down; at this point you may need to adjust the height again.
6. If using a drill with a tip 10mm or less then it is possible to use
the table clamp to hold your work. Unwind
the clamp knob until the open jaws can fit
over the post and into the holes. Align the
clamp pins into a pair of holes on the post
and tighten the knob again. Place your
work piece on the work surface in the
correct position and further tighten the
clamp until your work is firmly held in
position.
