3. While
holding the spring housing (Fig. 33), pull
out the housing and rotate it (counter-clockwise to
increase or clockwise to decrease) until you feel the
boss (B) engaged with the next notch on the housing.
Tighten the two nuts (YY) Fig. 32 to hold the housing
in place.
IMPORTANT: The inside nut (B1) Fig. 33 should not
contact the spring housing (ZZ) Fig. 33.

DO NOT REMOVE NUT COMPLETELY! Loosen nut (XX)
only enough to make spring housing (YY) rotatable.
Loosening nut too much can be dangerous and cause
personal injury. Spring inside housing is under tension
and will try to unwind if not held securely. Spring
housing should still be held snugly to head casting by
the nut but be loose enough to rotate the spring
housing to desired spring tension.

CHECKING LASER ADJUSTMENT
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect it from power source before installing
and removing accessories, before adjusting or when
making repairs. Anaccidentalstart-upcancauseinjury.
LASER LIGHT. Do not stare into the
beam, aperture, or into a reflection from a mirror-like
surface.
Laser alignment is preset at the factory. If needed, the
alignment can be adjusted by following the steps below:
To check if the lasers are perpendicular to the table,
do this:
1. Usingacarpenter'ssquareorsimilardevice,drawa
straightline(C1)Fig.34onascrapboard.
2. Place board on its edge as shown in Fig. 34 with
line facing back of drill press. Make sure the board
is placed over the middle of the table insert (D1)
Fig.34,asshown.
3. Turn laser on so the red lines are shining on board as
shown.Checktoseeifbothredlines(E1)Fig.34are
parallelwiththeline(C1)youdrew.
If they are not:
1. Using an included hex key, turn the front screw
(F1)Fig.35ontherightlaserpodsothatitsredline
is parallel with the line you drew on the board.
2. Repeat this step for the left laser pod and its line
usingitsfrontscrew(F1)Fig.36.
To check to see if the lasers intersect at the drill
point:
1. Layboardatontable(Fig.37)andmakesureitdoes
not move.
2. Usingasmalldrillbitwiththemachineoff,lowerthe

REMOVING CHUCK AND SPINDLE ADAPTER
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect it from power source before installing
and removing accessories, before adjusting or when
making repairs. Anaccidentalstart-upcancauseinjury.
The spindle adapter and chuck can be removed for the
purpose of using shanks with a #2 morse taper.

NOTE: Usedrillbitswithshankdiametersof5/8"orless.
NOTE: After installing a drill bit, use the supplied key to
tighten all three locations on the chuck.
To reduce the risk of injury, tighten all lock
handles before starting the machine. Loss of control of the
workpiece can cause serious injury.
To reduce the risk of injury, properly
support long or wide work-pieces. Loss of control of
the workpiece can cause severe injury.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not place
morethan250pounds(113kg)ofweightonthetable.
The use of accessories and attachments
not recommended by DELTA® may result in risk of
injury.
IMPORTANT:Whenthe workpiece (M1) Fig. 45 is long
enough, position it on the table with one end against
theleftsideofthecolumn(R1)topreventtheworkpiece
from rotating. If it is not possible to support the workpiece
against the column, clamp the workpiece to the table.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING DRILL BITS
NOTE: Usedrillbitswithashankof5/8"orlessindiameter.
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect it from power source before installing
and removing accessories, before adjusting or when
making repairs. Anaccidentalstart-upcancauseinjury.

CORRECT DRILLING SPEEDS
Factors that determine the correct speed are 1) the
workpiece,2) thesizeofthehole,3)the typeof bitor
othercutter,and4)thequalityofcut.
Use the recommended speed for the the
drill press bit and workpiece.
DRILLING WOOD
To reduce the risk of injury, tighten all lock
handles before starting the machine. Loss of control of
the workpiece can cause serious injury.
Twist drills, usually intended for metal drilling, can also be
used for boring holes in wood. However, machine spur
bits are generally preferred for working in wood. These
bitscutaat-bottomholeandaredesignedforremovalof
woodchips.Donotusehandbits(screwtip).Atdrillpress
speeds, they lift and rotate the workpiece.
Forthroughboring,aligntheworkpiecesothatthebitwill
go through the center hole in the table. Scribe a vertical
line on the front of the column and a matching mark on
the table bracket and the drill press head, so that the
table and drill press head can be clamped in the center
position at any height.
Feedthedrillbitslowlyintotheworkpiecewhenthebit
is close to cutting through the wood to prevent splintering
thebottomface.Useascrappieceofwoodasabase
block under the work to reduce splintering and protect
the point of the bit.
DRILLING METAL
To reduce the risk of injury, tighten all lock
handles before starting the machine. Loss of control of
the workpiece can cause serious injury.
Use clamps to hold metal workpieces. Never hold the
workpiece in your bare hand. The drill bit can seize the
work at any time, especially when breaking through the
workpiece and cause damage to the machine or injury
to you. The drill bit will break if the workpiece strikes the
column.
