G9749 Variable Speed Drill Press

-13-

The Model G9749 should be mounted to the floor.
Because floor materials may vary, floor mounting
hardware is not included. It is also necessary to
level your machine with a precision level.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (see

Figure 7)

and anchor studs (see

Figure 8) are two popular

methods for anchoring an object to a concrete
floor. We suggest you research the many options
and methods for mounting your machine and
choose the best that fits your specific application.

NOTICE

Anchor studs are stronger and more per-

manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;

however, they will stick out of the floor,

which may cause a tripping hazard if you

decide to move your machine.

To mount the drill press to the floor:

1. With the drill press securely resting on the

floor, shim between the floor and drill press
base as required to level the drill press
table.

2. Secure the drill press to the floor, but DO

NOT overtighten the fasteners.

NOTICE

Shims may be required when mounting the

drill press to the floor. If the floor is uneven

and you tighten the mounting bolts without

shims, you can crack the cast iron base.

Shim any gaps between the base and the

floor before fully tightening the mounting

bolts.

3. Recheck the table to make sure that it is still

level, and re-shim as required.

4. When the drill press is level and all gaps are

shimed, securely tighten the mounting bolts.
