SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED)
•
Keep all parts in working order. Check to determine that the
guard or other parts will operate properly and perform their
intended function.
•
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.

•
Be sure to bolt drill press to floor or bench securely to prevent
tipping and minimize vibration.
•
Tighten all nuts and bolts that may have loosened during

POWER SOURCE
The motor is designed for operation on the voltage an frequency
specified. Normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the specified voltage.
Running the unit on voltages which are not within the range may
cause overheating and motor burn out. Heavy loads require that
the voltage at motor terminals be no less than the voltage speci-
fied.
