Safety Instructions for Machinery

OWNER’S MANUAL. Read and understand this

owner’s manual BEFORE using machine.

TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained oper­ators have a higher risk of being hurt or killed.
Only allow trained/supervised people to use this
machine. When machine is not being used, dis­connect power, remove switch keys, or lock-out
machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially
around children. Make your workshop kid proof!

DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use
machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have
poor lighting. Operating machinery in these areas
greatly increases the risk of accidents and injury.

MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental
alertness is required for safe operation of machin­ery. Never operate under the influence of drugs or
alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You
can be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live
electrical components or improperly grounded
machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow qualified
service personnel to do electrical installation or
repair work, and always disconnect power before
accessing or exposing electrical equipment.

DISCONNECT POWER FIRST.
nect machine from power supply BEFORE making
adjustments, changing tooling, or servicing machine.
This prevents an injury risk from unintended startup
or contact with live electrical components.

Model G0823 (Mfd. Since 2/16)

WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become
entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or
cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce
risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally
contacting cutting tool or moving parts.

HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery
operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust
hazards associated with each workpiece mate­rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to
reduce your risk.

HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear­ing protection when operating or observing loud
machinery. Extended exposure to this noise
without hearing protection can cause permanent
hearing loss.

REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on
machinery can become dangerous projectiles
upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,
or any other tools on machine. Always verify
removal before starting!

USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use
this tool for its intended purpose—do not force
it or an attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed. Never make unapproved modifica­tions—modifying tool or using it differently than
intended may result in malfunction or mechanical
failure that can lead to personal injury or death!

AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times when operating machine.
Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions
that make workpiece control difficult or increase
the risk of accidental injury.

CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and
bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.
Stop using machine if they become a distraction.

GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce
accidental contact with moving parts or flying
debris. Make sure they are properly installed,
undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE
operating machine.

FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.
It will do the job safer and better at the rate for
which it was designed.

NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury
may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting
tool is unintentionally contacted.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur­ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or
loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is
stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult
this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec­ommended accessories. Using improper acces­sories will increase the risk of serious injury.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the
risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and
ensure all moving parts completely stop before
walking away. Never leave machine running
while unattended.

MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance
instructions and lubrication schedules to keep
machine in good working condition. A machine
that is improperly maintained could malfunction,
leading to serious personal injury or death.

DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine
for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or
any condition that could affect safe operation.
Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating
machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate
machine with damaged parts!

MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect­ing cord-connected machines from power, grab
and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord
may damage the wires inside. Do not handle
cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by
keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic
areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time
you experience difficulties performing the intend­ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our
Technical Support at [phone].

Additional Safety for Drill Presses

Serious injury or death can occur from getting clothing, jewelry, or long hair entangled in
rotating spindle or bit/cutting tool. Contact with rotating bit/cutting tool can result in severe cuts
or amputation of fingers. Flying metal chips can cause blindness or eye injuries. Broken bits/
cutting tools, unsecured workpieces, chuck keys, or other adjustment tools thrown from rotating
spindle can strike nearby operator or bystanders with deadly force. To reduce the risk of these
hazards, operator and bystanders MUST completely heed hazards and warnings below.

WEARING PROPER PPE. Flying chips created by

drilling can cause eye injuries or blindness. Always
wear a face shield in addition to safety glasses.
Always keep hands and fingers away from drill bit/
cutting tool. Avoid awkward hand positions, where
a sudden slip could cause hand to move into bit/
cutting tool.

AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. DO NOT wear
loose clothing, gloves, or jewelry, and tie back long
hair. Keep all guards in place and secure. Always
allow spindle to stop on its own. DO NOT stop
spindle using your hand or any other object.

REMOVING ADJUSTMENT TOOLS. Chuck key,
drawbar wrench, and other tools left on machine
can become deadly projectiles when spindle is
started. Remove all loose items or tools used on
spindle immediately after use.

SECURING BIT/CUTTING TOOL. Firmly secure
bit/cutting tool so it does not fly out of spindle dur­ing operation or startup.

SECURING TABLE AND HEADSTOCK. To avoid
accidental contact with tool/bit, tighten all table
and headstock locks before operating drill.

CORRECT SPINDLE SPEED. Using wrong spin­dle speed can cause bits/cutting tools to break
and strike operator or bystanders. Follow recom­mended speeds and feeds for each size/type of
bit/cutting tool and workpiece material.

WORKPIECE PREPARATION. To avoid loss of
workpiece control, DO NOT drill material with an
uneven surface on the table, unless a suitable sup­port is used. To avoid impact injuries, make sure
workpiece is free of nails or foreign objects in area
to be drilled.

WORKPIECE CONTROL. An unsecured work­piece may unexpectedly shift, spin out of control,
or be thrown if bit/cutting tool “grabs” during opera­tion. Clamp workpiece to table or in table-mounted
vise, or brace against column to prevent rotation.
NEVER hold workpiece by hand during operation.
NEVER start machine with bit/cutting tool touching
workpiece; allow spindle to gain full speed before
drilling.

INSPECTING BIT/CUTTING TOOL. Damaged
bits/cutting tools may break apart during operation
and hit operator or bystanders. Dull bits/cutting
tools increase cutting resistance and are more
likely to grab and spin/throw workpiece. Always
inspect bits/cutting tools for sharpness, chips, or
cracks before each use. Replace dull, chipped, or
cracked bits/cutting tools immediately.

MAINTAINING MACHINE. Keep machine in prop­er working condition to help ensure that it functions
safely and all guards and other components work
as intended. Perform routine inspections and all
necessary maintenance. Never operate machine
with damaged or worn parts that can break or
result in unexpected movement during operation.

CLEANING MACHINE SAFELY. To avoid contact
with tool/bit, never clear chips while spindle is
turning. To avoid cuts and eye injuries, DO NOT
clear chips by hand or with compressed air—use
a brush or vacuum instead.

DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. To reduce risk of
electrocution or injury from unexpected startup,
make sure drill is turned OFF, disconnected
from power, and all moving parts have come to a
complete stop before changing bits/cutting tools
or starting any inspection, adjustment, or mainte­nance procedure.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY

Before installing the machine, consider the avail­ability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.

or equipment damage
may occur if machine is
not properly grounded
and connected to power

The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.

The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.

If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over­loading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the specified circuit requirements.

For your own safety and protection of

Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to

a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple
machines may be running at the same time, con­sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power sup­ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

This machine is prewired to operate on a power
supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets
the following requirements:

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair
or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec­essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service per­sonnel if you do not understand these grounding
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon­nect it from power, and immediately replace it with
a new one.

We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Any extension cord used with this machine must
be in good condition and contain a ground wire
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must
meet the following size requirements:

Grounding Requirements

This machine MUST be grounded. In the event
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current.

This machine is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding
plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle
(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
