USE SAFETY GOGGLES (Head Protection)

Wear Safety goggles (must comply with ANSI Z87.1 } at ati times. Everyday eyeglasses only have

impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glas- ses. Also. use face or dust mask if cutting operation

is dusty, and ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operat=on,

SECURE WORK Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical.

It's safer than us=ng your hand, frees both hands

to operate toot. DON'T OVERREACH

Keep proper footing and balance at all times, MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE

Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance, Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessor=es.

DISCONNECT TOOLS

Before servicing when changing accessories such as blades, bits. cutters, etc.

17. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING Make sure switch is in "OFF" position before plug-

ging in.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES

Consult the owner's manual for recommended ac- cessories. Foltow the instructions that accompany

the accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause hazards,

NEVER STAND ON TOOL

19.

Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if

the cutting toot is accidentally contacted.

Do not store materials above or near the tool such

that it _snecessary to stand on the tool to reach them,

CHECK DAMAGED PARTS

20.

Before further use of the tool. aguard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its

intended function. Check for alignment of moving

parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect

its operation, A guard or other part that is dam agecl should be properly repaired or replaced.

21. DiRECTiON OF FEED

Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direc- tion of rotation of the blade or cutter only.

22. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNII_,,IING UNATTENDED Turn power off. Don't leave tool unti! it comes to a

comptete stop.

additional safety instructions for drill presses

WARNUNG: For your own safety, do not attempt to operate your drill press until it is completely assem-

bled and installed according to the instructions

. . . and until you have read and understand the

following:

Page

1. Genera0 Safety mnstructions for Power Tools. 2

2. Getting to Know Your Drill Press ........ 12

3. Basic Drill Press Operation ............. 15

4. Adjustments .......................... 17

5. Maintenance .......................... 18

6. Stability of Drill Press If there is any tendency of the drill press to tilt or

move during certain operations, the drill press should be bolted to the floor. An alternate is to

securely bolt a flat piece of W' exterior plywood large enough to stabilize the drill press to tile under- side of the Base, extending to both sides, and to

rear if desired. 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 support with one

hand, provide an auxiliary support.

7. Location The drill press should be positioned so neither the

operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand

in line with a potential Kickback, in a poorly lit area

or where the surface could cause trips, slips or falls.

8. Kickback A kickback occurs when the workpiece issuddenly

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 listed on page 21.

9. Protection: Eyes, Hands, Face, Ears and Body

WARNING: To avoid being pulled into the spin- ning tool --

1. Do NOT wear:

- gloves

- necktie

- loose clothing

- jewelry

2. Tie back long hair

a. If any part of your drill press is missing, malfunc-

tioning, has been damaged or broken.., such as the motor switch, or other operating control,

a safety device or the power 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 too!

if the workpiece should unexpectedly shift or your hand should slip.

c. To avoid injury from parts thrown by the spring,

follow instructions exactly as given and shown

in adjusting spring tension of quilt.

d. To prevent the workpiece from being torn from

your hands, spinning of the toot, shattering the too! or being thrown, always properly support

your work so it won't shift or bind on the tool:

-- 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 column

- if it is too short or the table is tilted, clamp solidly to the table. Use table slots or clamp-

ing ledge around the outside edge of the table.

-- A drill press VICE must always be fastened to the table.

-- Never perform any operation "FREE-

HAND" (hand-holding workpiece rather

than supporting it on the table), except

when polishing.

-- Securely lock Head and Supportto 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 tool does not have excessive runout (wob-

ble) 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 auxiliary 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 panel on the left side of the head for dri!ting information; for ac- cessories, refer to the instructions provided

with the accessories.

f. Never ictimb on the drill press Table, it could

break or pul! the entire drill press down on you.

g, Turn the motor Switch Off and put away the

Switch Key when leaving the drill press.

h. To avoid injury from thrown work or too! contact,

do NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.

10, Use only accessories designed for this drill

press to avoid serious injury from thrown bro- ken parts or work pieces.

a. Holesaws must NEVER be operated on this drill

press at a speed greater than 400 RPM.

b. Drum sanders must NEVER be operated onthis

drill press at a speed greater than 1800 RPM.

WARNING: Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your drill press) to become com-

monplace. Always remember that a careless frac- tion of asecond is sufficient to inflict severe injury,

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result =n severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles com- plying with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on Package) before commencing power too! operation. Safety Goggles are

available at Sears retail or catalog stores.

This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type outlet as shown,

If the outlet you are planning to use for this power tool

CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET

This machine must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.

Plug power cord into a 110-120V properly grounded type outlet protected by a 15-amp. dual element time delay or Circuit-Saver fuse or circuit breaker.

NOT ALL OUTLETS ARE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

IF YOU ARE NOT SURE THAT YOUR OUTLET, AS

PICTURED BELOW, IS PROPERLY GROUNDED, HAVE IT CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRI-

CIAN. WARNING: Do not permit fingers to touch the ter-

is of the two prong type, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER. Use

an adapter as shown and always connect the grounding lug to known grown.

Itis recommended that you have a qualified electrician replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded THREE prong outlet.
