SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED)
•
Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding, breakage, mounting and any other condition that may
affect a tool’s operation.
•
Damaged parts should be properly repaired or replaced. Do not
perform makeshift repairs. (Use the parts list provided to order
replacement parts.)
KNOW HOW TO USE TOOL
•
Use the right tool for the job. Do not force tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
•
Disconnect tool when changing accessories such as bits, cut-
ters and the like.
•
Avoid accidental start-up. Make sure switch is in OFF position
before plugging in.
•
Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
Handle workpiece correctly. Secure work with clamps or vise.
Leave hands free to operate machine, Protect hands from
possible injury.
•
Never leave a tool running unattended. Turn the power off and
do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance.
•
Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if tool is tipped
or if cutter is unintentionally contacted.
•
Keep hands away from moving parts and cutting surfaces.
•
Know your tool. Learn its operation, application and specific
limitations.
•
Feed work into a bit or cutter against the direction of rotation
of bit or cutter.
•
Turn the machine off if it jams. A cutter jams when it digs too
deeply into the workpiece. (The motor force keeps it stuck in
workpiece.)
•
Use recommended accessories. Refer to page 9. Use of improp-
er accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
•
Clamp workpiece or brace against column to prevent rotation.
•
Use recommended speed for drill accessory and workpiece
material.
WARNING:
Think Safety! Safety is a combination of operator com-
mon sense and alertness at all times when drill press is being used.
