Default drill press help

I just bought a used drill press and have been unable to find any
references to it. The tag on the front has

Olympic
DP 16
Heavy Duty
Drill Press
MFG No

then the various speeds. the mfg and no have not been stamped. It is green
the same as a jet. Big 1/2" chuck 1/2 horse motor, and it is a bench model.

Any help in finding parts/owners manual etc would be much apprecciated.

mike


will post a couple of pics after the software gets re-installed

Jet DPs are tan or white, right? Like this:

Grizzly DPs look sorta like this:

Would like to see your pics... Also, try asking in rec.crafts.metalworking
as more DP people might be there than here IMHO.

Mike, did you ever get any info on the Olympic drill press. I too am looking
for a few parts. Need a new head stock. Has a bit of a wobble. It's been a
long time sense your post so not expecting any reply. Thanks Paul
