The headstock is a heavy
load. Seek assistance
before beginning this
step.

stock over the top end of the column. When
the underside of the headstock is lined up
with the column, slide the headstock onto the
column until it stops (approximately 2").
Note: An alternate method is to lay the
headstock and column on the floor, slide
them together, tilt the assembly up, and posi-
tion the drill press upright on its base.
