GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS

The smaller the gauge number, the larger diameter of
the extension cord is. if in doubt of the proper size of an
extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An
undersized cord wiii cause a drop in line voltage result-
ing in a loss of power and overheating. USE ONLY A

3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3_PRONG
GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE
THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG,

23. SECURE ALL WORK. When it is possibb, use

damps or jigs to secure the workpbce. This is safer
than attempting to hold the workpbce with your

hands.

24. STAY ALERT, watch what you are doing, and use

common sense when operating a power tool. DO
NOT USE a tool wNe tired or under the influence

of drugs, abohol, or medication. A moment of
inattention whib operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.

25. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Use of incorrect or improper accessories could
cause serious injury to the operator and cause
damage to the tool. if in doubt, check the instruction
manual that comes with that particular accessory.

26. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD

CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current

your product will draw. Please see "MiNiMUM
RECOMMENDED GAUGE FOR EXTENSION

CORDS (AWG)" table for correct sizing of an exten-
sion cord. if in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
it is marked with the suffix "W°A" ("W" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and
in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person
before using it.

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

27. WEAR PROPER CLOTHING. DO NOT wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry. These items

can get caught in the machine during operations
and pull the operator into the moving parts. Users

must wear a protective cover on their hair, if the
hair is long, to prevent it from contacting any

moving parts.

THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED while in use to
protect the operator from eUectric shock.

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAK-
DOWN, grounding provides the path of bast resistance

for eUectriccurrent and reduces the risk of eUectric
shock. This tooUis equipped with an eUectric cord that

has an equipment-grounding conductor and a ground-
ing pDg. The pUugMUST be pDgged into a matching

eUectrbaUreceptacle that is properUy installed and
grounded in accordance with ALL bcaU codes and
ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. if it wHUnot
fit the eUectrbaUreceptacb, have the proper eUectrbaU

receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the equip°
ment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with
or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding
conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary.

CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded.

The motor supplied with your drill press is a 120 volt,
singb-phase motor. Never connect the green wire to a

live terminal.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS

A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.

REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDI-
ATELY.

This too[ is intended for use on a circuit that has an
electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE !-1.

FIGURE !-! shows a 3-wire electrical plug and electri-
cal receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a

properly grounded electrical receptacle is not available,
an adapter as shown in FIGURE 1-2 can be used to
temporarily connect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded
receptacle. The adapter has a rigid lug extending from
it that MUST be connected to a permanent earth
ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box.

THIS ADAPTER IS PROHIBITED IN CANADA.
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the electrical

receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are
not sure have a certified electrician check the electrical

receptacle.

This Drill Press is for indoor use only, Do not expose to
rain or use in damp locations,
