Your machine is provided with a pointing device that allows you to identify the drilling centre on
the material to be cut, this adjustment must be performed according to workpiece’s width and
workbench’s height fig. 18.
You have to adjust it every time you move the base or change wood workpiece’s width.
1. Place and fix the wood workpiece on the bench and in the vice.
2. Switch the laser pointing device on by pushing the switch (C) fig. 20.
3. Lower the bit until you make a little sign on the piece.
4. Move the laser pointing device (L) fig. 18 in order that the cross is centered exactly on the
little sign made before, by adjusting the beam (A) fig. 19. In case you move the bench or
change wood workpiece’s width you have to adjust the alignment of the beam.
If you have to perform a series of holes of the same depth, we recommend you to adjust the
drill press by using the depth roller (A) fig. 20.
1. By turning the roller (A) you can move the lock (O) that corresponds to the maximum
level to which you can lower the bit; on this lock you have to fix the benchmark (B) which
moves during drilling. Move the roller to select the desired drilling depth.
2. Make a drilling test and check the depth you have obtained. Adjust again the machine if it
is necessary. This way, on workpieces of the same width you will obtain holes of the
same depth.
F11-991 drill press has a 16 mm spindle assembled on the conic axle (A) of fig. 24, which can
be removed with the wrench 13 fig. 22 supplied in order to use cone shanked bits.
To remove the axle-spindle group, lower it by using the height adjust handwheel in order to get
to the ejection hole of the morse cone.
Insert the wrench, as illustrated in fig.28 and push it inside with a hammer, while being careful
not to drop the spindle.
Insert the conic bits in the end of the hollow shaft.
To remove the bit always use the wrench supplied and follow the same procedure.
CAUTION: The use of accessories not recommended by us can entail the risk of injuries.
The following instructions provide the beginner with general indications on how to use the drill
press.
• Before use, make some test on discards or scraps to get used to drill press use.
• Slowly move the bit close to the workpiece.
• Adjust drilling depth in order not to drill the base.
• IMPORTANT: When the workpiece is long enough it must be placed on the base with
one end against the column, as illustrated in fig. 21 and fixed with clamps or blocked with
a vice.
