tion. Connect to a 120V, 15 amp branch circuit and use

a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The electri- cal circuit cannot have any wire size less than #14. To avoid shock or fire, replace power cord immediately if it is damaged in any way.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65

Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints.

Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other

masonry products.

Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Operating a drill press can be dangerous if safety and common sense are ignored. The operator must be

familiar with the operation of the tool. Read this manual to understand this drill press. DO NOT operate this drill

press if you do not fully understand the limitations of

this tool. DO NOT modify this drill press in any way.

REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your responsibility.

BEFORE USING THE DRILL PRESS

To avoid serious injury and damage to the tool, read and follow all of the Safety and Operating Instructions before operating the drill press.

Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well- ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-

cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

READ the entire Instruction Manual. LEARN how to

use the tool for its intended applications.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any power tool can throw debris into the eyes during opera- tions, which could cause severe and permanent

eye damage. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety

glasses. ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (that

comply with ANSI standard Z87.1) when operating

power tools. Safety Goggles are available at Sears

Retail Stores.

ALWAYS WEAR HEARING PROTECTION. Plain

cotton is not an acceptable protective device.

Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI

$3.19 Standards.

ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT

INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR AIRBORNE

PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica

dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate tool in well ventilat-

ed area and provide for proper dust removal. Use

dust collection system whenever possible.

Exposure to the dust may cause serious and per-

manent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.

ALWAYS keep the work area clean, well lit, and organized. DO NOT work in an environment with

floor surfaces that are slippery from debris, grease,

and wax.

7. ALWAYS unplug the tool from the electrical recep- tacle when making adjustments, changing parts or

performing any maintenance.

8. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure that the power switch is in the "OFF" position before

plugging in the power cord to the electrical receptacle.

9. AVOID A DANGEROUS WORKING ENVIRON-

MENT. DO NOT Use electrical tools in a damp environment or expose them to rain.

10. CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by remov-

ing switch keys, unplugging tools from the electrical receptacles, and using padlocks.

11. DO NOT use electrical tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gasses.

12. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to perform an opera- tion for which it was not designed. It will do a safer

and higher quality job by only performing operations

for which the tool was intended.

13.

DO NOT stand on a tool. Serious injury could result if the tool tips over or you accidentally contact the

tool.

14.

DO NOT store anything above or near the tool where anyone might try to stand on the tool to

reach it. DO NOT operate tool if under the influence of drugs

or alcohol.

EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL. Carefully

check all guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended func-

tions. Check for alignment, binding or breaking of

moving parts. A guard or other part that is damaged should be immediately repaired or replaced.

17.

GROUND ALL TOOLS. If the tool is supplied with a 3-prong plug, it must be plugged into a 3-contact

electrical receptacle. The 3rd prong is used to ground the tool and provide protection against

accidental electric shock. DO NOT remove the 3rd prong. See Grounding Instructions.

19.KEEPPROTECTIVEGUARDSINPLACEANDIN WORKINGORDER.

20.MAINTAIN YOUR BALANCE. DO NOT extend

yourself over the tool. Wear oil resistant rubber-

soled shoes. Keep floor clear of debris, grease, and

wax.

21. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Always keep tools clean and in good working order. Keep all blades and tool bits sharp.

22. NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to the OFF position. DO

NOT leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.

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 will 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.

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.

23. REMOVE ALL MAINTENANCE TOOLS from the immediate area prior to turning the tool ON.

24. SECURE ALL WORK. Use clamps or jigs to secure

the workpiece. This is safer than attempting to hold the workpiece with your hands.

25. STAY ALERT, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. DO

NOT USE a tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

26. 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.

27. 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.

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,

excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

28. 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 electric shock.

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

for electric current and reduces the risk of electric

shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor and a ground- ing plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching electrical receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and

ordinances. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not

fit the electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical

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.

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, single-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 tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE 1-1.

FIGURE 1-1 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.
