WARNING
!
ON / OFF SWITCH PANEL (FIG.
W)
The “ON / OFF” switch has a removable
safety key. With the key removed from the
switch, unauthorized and hazardous use by
children and others is minimized.
1.
To turn the drill press “ON,” insert the key (2)
into the slot of the switch (1), and move the
switch upward to the “ON” position.
2. To turn the drill press “OFF,” move the
switch (1) downward.
3. To lock the switch in the OFF position,
grasp the sides of the safety key (2), and
pull it out.
4. With the safety key removed, the switch
will not operate to power the drill press on.
5. If the safety key is removed while the drill
press is running, it can be turned “OFF”
but cannot be restarted without inserting
the safety key.
6. To turn the laser “ON,” press the rocker
switch (3) to the on position.
7. Never leave the drill press unattended.
Turn the laser switch and power switch
“OFF” and wait until it comes to a
complete stop, and remove the safety key
to prevent unauthorized starts.
ALWAYS lock the switch “OFF” when the
drill press is not in use. Remove the key
and keep it in a safe place. In the event
of a power failure, blown fuse, or tripped
circuit breaker, turn the switch “OFF” and
remove the key, preventing an accidental
startup when power comes on.
