ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Figure 6. Components laid out for identification. The following is a description of the components shipped with the Shop Fox® W1680 Drill Press. It is recommended that the components be laid out in a similar fashion to those in Figure 6. This will help in identification before beginning assembly. Should any part be missing, examine the packaging carefully and check under the belt guard. If any key parts are missing, call Woodstock International, Inc.
While the main components of the Shop Fox® W1680 Drill Press are assembled at the factory, some assembly is required. The following is the recommended sequence best suited for final assembly. TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need a 11⁄16" open end wrench, a rubber or wooden mallet and a 5mm Allen® wrench (supplied). Base/Column Wear safety glasses during the entire assembly process. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury.
Table Support 1. Thread the 12mm table lock handle 3 turns into the table support bracket. ASSEMBLY 2. Insert the pinion into the hole on the side of the table support bracket from the inside, starting with the pinion shaft. Figure 9. Align setscrew in crank handle with flat, Figure 10, on pinion shaft and secure using the 3mm Allen® wrench provided. 3. Examine the rack and note that the gear teeth extend further on one end than the other.The shorter end must be positioned down.
Table Support, Cont. 4. Slide the table support bracket onto the column while holding the rack in place. Allow the bracket to go down until the bottom of the rack contacts the shoulder on the column support. Figure 12. Secure the table with the lock handle. 5. NOTICE Use caution when tightening set screw. Over tightening will split column ring. Figure 13. Inside bevel in the correct position. -11- ASSEMBLY Figure 12. Bottom of rack in position.
Head Stock ASSEMBLY The headstock represents a heavy load. Seek assistance before beginning this step. 1. The bottom of the headstock has a pocket for inserting the column. An assistant will be needed to position the pocket over the column, as in Figure 14. Allow the headstock to slide down until it stops (approximately 4"). Figure 14. Align pocket in headstock with column. 2. Align the headstock directly over the foot of the base by using a plumb bob.
3. Tighten the two setscrews in Figure 16 to secure the headstock to the column Handles Three handles are supplied with your new Drill Press. Thread them into the hub. Figure 17. Unplug the drill press before replacing the light bulb. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Figure 17. Installing handles. Installing Light Bulb The Shop Fox® 17" Drill Press is fitted with a light socket that accommodates standard sized bulbs.
Drill Chuck and Arbor ASSEMBLY The drill chuck is attached to the drill spindle by means of a drill chuck arbor. Matched tapers on the arbor and the back of the chuck create an almost permanent assembly when properly joined. To assemble the drill chuck and mount it to the spindle, carefully follow the instructions below: Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be highly flammable, and toxic when inhaled or ingested.
4. Slide the arbor into the spindle socket while slowly rotating drill chuck. The socket has a rectangular pocket in which the tang (or flat portion of the arbor) fits into. Once the tang is oriented correctly the drill chuck will not rotate without turning the spindle. 5. Tap the end of the drill chuck with a rubber or wooden mallet to seat the drill chuck. See Figure 20. Arbor Removal Wear safety glasses when removing drill chuck from spindle. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury.
ADJUSTMENTS Speed Change Unplug the drill press before changing speeds to avoid accidental start up. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. ADJUSTMENTS Unplug the drill press before changing speeds. The Drill Press has 12 speeds ranging from 140 to 3050 RPM. There is a speed chart located under the belt guard and one on the following page. Refer to these while reading these instructions. Figure 23. Loosening the lock knob. 1.
More About Speed Changes The speed chart above is included to help illustrate belt changes necessary to produce a desired speed. Select the proper speed for the job at hand and find it on the speed chart above. Move the belts to the indicated location on the chart. The belt setting in the example above, shows the spindle belt is in the #1 position and the motor belt is in the #7 location. This will produce a speed of 1,650 RPM. Spindle Adjustments 1. Loosen the depth collar lock knob. Figure 26. 2.
Table Adjustments The table can be adjusted for height, rotation and angle. Follow these instructions to adjust height: 1. Loosen the support bracket lock knob. Turn the table hand crank to lift or lower the table. Figure 28. 2. Always lock the support bracket in place before operating machine. Adjust rotation: Figure 28. Changing table height with crank. ADJUSTMENTS 1. Loosen the lock handle located under the table. See Figure 29. Rotate table the desired amount. 2.
OPERATIONS Test Run Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test run the machine. Always wear safety glasses when operating drill press. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury. Make sure the starting switch is off. The paddle is down for off. Make sure all the fasteners and lock handles are tight. Plug in the power cord. Pull the START paddle. Make sure that your finger is poised over the paddle, Figure 31, just in case there is a problem.
DO NOT investigate problems or adjust the drill press while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a complete stop before proceeding! Drill Bit Changes Care must be taken to secure the bit firmly in place. When changing bits, proceed as follows: Figure 32. Installing bit. 1. Disconnect the machine from the power source. 2. Open the chuck wide enough to accept a new bit. OPERATIONS 3.
MAINTENANCE General Table And Base Tables can be kept rust-free with regular applications of products like Boeshield® T-9. For long term storage you may want to consider products like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™. Disconnect power to the machine when performing any maintenance or repairs. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Lubrication Since all bearings are shielded and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.
