Done. The manual is there under the name AMT 4030 Drill Press.


O.K. I see where some of the confusion came from. The manual
calls the Jacobs taper on the end of the spindle a Morse taper -- which
is totally incorrect.

Good Luck,

Actually it could be correct, Don.

According to Jacobs:

"DIN Taper Interchangeability
DIN tapered sections are identical to the following Morse tapers:

MT No 1 for tapers B10 and B12
MT No 2 for tapers B16 and B18
MT No 3 for tapers B22 and B24

The length of these tapers is, of course, distinctly less than the
overall length of the corresponding Morse taper. Each taper may be
regarded as corresponding approximately to that part of the Morse
taper nearest the small end(for example: B10), or to the part nearest
the large end (for example: B12)"
