Auth/Use Notes

These notes are for reference after authorization by a person.

Only use drills and accessories with correct shank taper and tang

Be sure the e-stop (big red button) is in the out position by twisting the button counter clockwise. This must be done before turning on the power, otherwise the spindle will not operate.

Authorizations from the old DoAll drill press carry over to this machine.

The motor direction is reversible using a switch on the back of the control box. For nearly all drills, the spindle must rotate clockwise when viewed from above.

Setup material securely on the table. Turn e-stop counter clockwise Turn on power switch on the back of the control box Set the RPM based on the material being drilled and the drill diameter. Set the direction switch on the back of the control box to 'forward'. Move the spindle switch to 'on' when you are ready to drill. To turn off, push the e-stop or flip the spindle switch.
