===== Instructions =====

=== Safety ===
  * Be aware of other people around you. Don't bump into them and be respectful of usage space around the equipment.
  * Only drill vertically. This is not a mill / CNC machine. Things could go very wrong if the work piece is moved while drilling into it.
  * Tie long hair back (preferably tucking it into clothing). Be aware of beards if appropriate.
  * Don't wear loose clothing that might catch on any moving part.

=== Drill bits ===
  * These are located on the wall behind the drill and in the draw below labelled "Drill bits".
  * If a drill bit is broken during normal usage, replace with a spare drill bit from the "Spare bits" storage box. Do not use the spares if there are still suitable bits available.
  * If there are no more spares, make a note of the drill bit size and comment on the mailing list to get more stock. Alternatively, buy a new drill bit and request reimbursement through the normal forms.
  * The drill bits are good for general purpose.

=== Usage ===
  - Move the working platform up or down by loosening the handle attached to the left of the platform.
  - Insert the relevant drill bit. Ensure the shank of the drill bit goes all the way into the chuck.
  - twist tighten the chuck, no key is required. 
  - Align the hole in the platform with the drill bit. This is so that the surface won't be damaged if you do drill through the work piece.
  - Secure the work piece onto the platform with clamps or using the metal vice clamp to hold the piece so your hands don't have to.
  - Turn on machine with the start button on the side of the machine.
  - Slowly use the three handles on the side to lower the drill into the work piece.
  - Rotate the handles **slowly** to remove the drill bit upwards from the work piece - do **not** just let go of the handles.

=== Changing Speed ===
?????

=== Tidying up ===
  * Wait for a while to ensure that the drill bit is cool. If you can hold onto the bit for a long time (i.e. at least 3 seconds) with your bare hands, that is cold enough.
  * Remove drill bit from chuck. and put all drill bits back into their respective places.
  * Brush the drill and platform to remove excess material. Sweep area around drill press and bin the rubbish.
