Cleaning
WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when
cleaning this tool.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and
shorten the device's service life.
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not sufficient, a mild detergent
on a damp cloth is recommended.
• Water must never come into contact with the tool.
• Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it.
• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
(where applicable).
Lubrication
This drill press comes correctly lubricated with grease and oil for the spindle mechanism parts which
will be sufficient for years of normal occasional use. However, if the drill press is frequently used,
it may need to be re-lubricated on a yearly basis. Instructions on dismantling and re-assembling
the spindle section are beyond the scope of this manual. However, general advice for lubrication
is as follows:
1. After dismantling, clean the components removing the old lubrication and check for excessive
component wear or damage.
2. Lubricate the Bearings (19) with a good quality lithium-based grease. Fill the Spline Sleeve (18)
and Spindle Sleeve (20) with grease and ensure the Spindle (21) is also greased.
3. A light coating of engine oil can be applied for parts where grease cannot be applied or where
there is surface friction.
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children.
• If the tool is permanently set up in a workshop or garage, ensure access is restricted to prevent
children operating the tool.
