Enstriksyon Operasyon
Before operating the JET 13R Drill Press, ensure you have read and understood all safety warnings. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection.
- Preparasyon materyèl: Byen sekirite clamp the workpiece to the drill press table. Never hold the workpiece by hand during drilling operations.
- Enstalasyon Bit: Mete mèch perçage a nan mandrin nan, asire w ke li santre epi byen sere ak kle mandrin nan. Retire kle mandrin nan anvan ou kòmanse machin nan.
- Ajisteman vitès: Adjust the pulley and motor speeds according to the material being drilled and the drill bit size. Refer to the speed chart (if available on the machine or in the full manual) for recommended settings. To change speeds, open the belt cover, loosen the motor lock, and adjust the belt position on the pulleys. Re-tension the belt and close the cover before operation.
- Pwofondè Stop: Set the depth stop to control the drilling depth.
- Operasyon: Turn on the drill press. Allow the motor to reach full speed before engaging the drill bit with the workpiece. Apply steady, even pressure to the feed handle.
- Refwadisman: Use appropriate cutting fluid for certain materials to reduce heat and extend bit life.
- Konplete: Once drilling is complete, retract the drill bit from the workpiece, turn off the machine, and wait for the spindle to stop completely before removing the workpiece.
Antretyen
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your JET 13R Drill Press.
- Netwayaj: Keep the drill press clean and free of chips and dust. Use a brush or vacuum; never use compressed air directly on the machine as it can force debris into moving parts.
- Lubrifikasyon: Periodically lubricate moving parts as specified in the full manual.
- Chuck Removal and Maintenance: To remove the chuck, lower the spindle to its lowest position. Insert a chuck wedge into the slot between the chuck and the spindle collar, then tap lightly with a mallet to dislodge the chuck. Clean the tapered surfaces before reinstallation.
- Enspeksyon senti: Regularly inspect the drive belts for wear, cracks, or damage. Replace worn belts promptly. Ensure proper belt tension.
- Tcheke Fastener: Periodically check all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners.
