4)  ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT USE AND CARE

a)

  Do not force the electrical equipment. Use the correct electrical equipment for your application. The correct electrical equipment will do the job better  

and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b)

  Do not use the electrical equipment if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any electrical equipment that cannot be controlled with the switch is  

dangerous and must be repaired.

c)

  Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the electrical equipment before making any adjustments, changing accessories, 

or storing electrical equipment. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the electrical equipment accidentally.

d)

  Store idle electrical equipment out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the electrical equipment or these instructions to  

operate the electrical equipment. Electrical equipment is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e)

  Maintain electrical equipment. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the  

electrical equipment operation. If damaged, have the electrical equipment repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained  
electrical equipment.

f)

  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g)

  Use the electrical equipment, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of 

electrical equipment, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the electrical equipment for operations different 
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) SERVICE

a)

  Have your electrical equipment serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the  

electrical equipment is maintained.

MILL SAFETY FEATURE

INSTALLATION LOCATION 

•  The Mill 

MUST

 be installed on a solid and level surface for proper operation, accuracy and safety.

•  There 

MUST

 be a minimum of 3 ft. of open space surrounding the Mill.

•  This Mill 

MUST

 be located in a clean, dry, well lighted environment free of dust, grit or other contaminates.

 

  Should a malfunction occur during the operation of the Mill, hitting the RED STOP BUTTON will stop all motion immediately.

 

  It is necessary that the Mill be permanently mounted to a firm, secure workbench with a solid and level top surface of a minimum  

of 1/2” [13mm] thick capable of supporting the weight of the Mill and any extreme imbalance conditions resulting from angle  
Milling/Drilling operations. To do so:

-  Place the Mill over the selected location.
-  Trace the four mounting holes in the Base onto the mounting surface.

  Check that no electrical wires or other hazards exist under the mounting surface before drilling.

-  Drill four 3/8” [9.5mm] holes in the surface. 
-  Secure with four 3/8” screws of adequate length (not included) with washers under the heads through the mounting feet of the Mill Base.
