WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT
USE YOUR DRILL PRESS UNTIL mT IS COM-
PLETELY ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORD-
ING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS... AND UNTIL YOU
HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOW-

2. Getting to Know Your Drill Press ........ 17
3. Basic Drill Press Operation ............. 22
4. Adjustments .......................... 24
5. Maintenance .......................... 25
6. Stability of Drill Press
If there is any tendency of the drill press to tilt or
move during any use, bolt it to the floor or a flat
piece of W" exterior plywood large enough to
stabilize the drill press. Bolt the plywood to the
underside of the Base, so it extends at least to
both sides, Make sure the plywood won't trip the
operator. Do not use pressed wood panels
they can break unexpectedly.
If the workpiece is too large to easily support with
one hand, provide an auxiliary support.
7. Location
Use the drill press in a well tit area and on a leve!
surface clean and smooth enough to reduce the
risk of trips, slips, or faIts, Use it where neither the
operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand
in line with a potential kickback.
8. Kickback
A kickback occurs when the workpiece is suddenly
thrown in the OPPOSITE direction to the DIREC-
TION OF FEED: THIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS IN-
JURY. Kickbacks are most commonly caused by
use of accessories NOT recommended for this tool,
9. Protection: Eyes, Hands, Face, Earsand Body
WARNING: TO AVOID BEING PULLED INTO
THE SPINNING TOOL --
1. Do NOT wear:
-- gloves
necktie

2. Do tie back long hair
a. If any partofyourdrill press _smissing, malfunc-
tioning, has been damaged or broken.., such
as the motor switch, or other operating control
a safety device or the 0ower cord . cease
operating immediately until the particular part
is properly repaired or replaced.
b. Never place your fingers in a position where
they could contact the drill or other cutting tool
if the workpiece should unexpectedly shift or
your hand should slip,

-- Always position BACKUP MATERIAL (use
beneath the workpiece) to contact the left
side of the column.
-- Whenever possible, position the WORK-
PIECE to contact the left side of the col-
umn-if it is too short or the table is tilted,
clamp solidly to the table. Use table slots
or clamping ledge around the outside edge
of the table.
-- When using a drill press VICE, always fas-
ten it to the table.
-- Never do any work "FREEHAND" (hand-
holding workpiece rather than supporting it
on the table), except when polishing.
-- Securely lock Head and Support to Column,
Table Arm to support, and Table to Table
Arm before operating drill press.
-- Never move the Head or Table while the
tool is running.
-- Before starting the operation, jog the motor
switch to make sure the drill or other cutting
toot does not wobble or cause vibration.
-- If a workpiece overhangs the table such
that it will fall or tip if not held, clamp it to
the table or provide auxihary support.
-- Use fixtures for unusual operations to
adequately hold, guide and position work-
piece.
-- Use the SPINDLE SPEED recommended
for the specific operation and workpiece
material--check the label inside the Belt
Guard for drilling information; for acces-
sories, refer to the instructions p_ovided
with the accessories.
f. Never climb on the drill press Table, it
