USING THE KNUCKLE CLAMP 9

  • T-TRACK COMPATIBILITY: The Knuckle Clamp is designed to be used with standard 1/4-20 hex head bolts. In the illustration shown, the head of the bolt is captured in a matching aluminum T-track. However the clamp can also be installed in any table with any other 1/4-20 bolt with or without T-track.
    For instance in a work bench, a 1/4″ carriage bolt can be pushed up through the bench top and used in the same manner. As long as the bolt is secure enough to not pull out, the clamp can do its job. Do not tighten the clamp with anything other than the included Woodpeckers Multi-Knob or similarly sized knob. Do not use a wrench to tighten the clamp. This will destroy the clamp. Hand pressure only.

  • PIVOTING FEET: Each Pivoting Foot has a Non-Slip Pad molded to it. This Non-Slip Pad prevents marking of softer wood species and greatly reduces movement of the work piece being clamped.

  • HEIGHT KNOB: The purpose of the Height Knob and Spring is to allow the Knuckle Clamp to rest at a height just above the work piece when clamping pressure 1s removed, Thus making it easy to slide work under the foot.

  • LOCATION KNOB: Use the Location Knob to keep the screw vertically oriented and stable. No more than finger pressure 1s required to keep it in place.

  • BRIDGE: Although the Bridge has seven different Knuckle locations, only the center five are typically used. A good rule of thumb is to use the one closest to the piece being clamped. This will allow for maximum clamping pressure. Maximum clamping capacity, about 2″.

USING THE DP•PRO FLIP STOPS 8

  • The Flag of the Flip Stop should always be on the chuck side of the stop. Stops to the left of the chuck should have the Flag on the right side of the Flip Stop assembly. Stops to the right of the chuck should have the Flag on the left side of the Flip Stop assembly. Figure 8.
  • To reverse a Flip Stop for use on the other side of the chuck, remove the Flag Screw, reverse the Flag and re-install it. Figure A.Woodpeckers DP Pro Drill Press Table System 14
  • Loosen the Locking Thumbwheel and position the stop approximately where you need it. Tighten the Locking Thumbwheel.
  • The precise position of the Flag can be fine-tuned using the Micro-Adjust Thumbwheel.

The DP·PRO Drawer Base has several slots in the Base. The pattern is designed to intersect with virtually any pattern of slots in a factory drill press table. Figure 18.

Woodpeckers DP Pro Drill Press Table System 16

  1. The DP·PRO Table has a 1 /4″ hole at the optimum position for location of the center of the press. Chuck a 1/4″ drill bit in your chuck and adjust the table so the drill bit aligns with the hole in the table.
  2. Find the outermost points where the slots in the Drawer Base align with the slots in your factory table. These are the optimum points for securing the Drawer Base to your factory table.
  3. A variety of hardware has been supplied to attach your DP · PRO table to your factory drill press table. We have supplied two sizes of rectangular nuts.
    A. In tables with through-slots, the larger (5/16″ -18) should bridge across the slot as shown. Figure 18/19.
    B. In drill press tables with T-slots, one size or the other should fit the slot as shown. Figure 20/21.

ATTACHING THE FILLER BLOCK

AT THIS POINT YOU WILL NEED:
