Hey, folks;
I was curious about a recent acquisition (an FDM-58-12S drill press). I believe this is an old Harbor Freight drill press, but badged under the name of "Guardian Power Products", and made in Taiwan :
Does anyone know of a parts manual, and/or a regular manual for this thing in a PDF form? I couldn't find one out there on the inner tubes. It has a lot of chatter when running (when I dropped oil down the quill/spindle, it quieted down quite a bit). I'm looking to upgrade a few things on it and turn it into a nice machine (12-speed floor-standing drill press with a 3" capacity).
