WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities 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.

WARNING: For Your Own Safety Read

Instruction Manual Before Operating Drill Press

Safety Instructions For Power Tools

These safety rules cannot cover every situation in a work shop. Consider your conditions when setting up or operating your drill press

SECTION 1: SAFETY

a) Always wear eye protection.

b) Do not wear gloves, necktie or loose cloth-

ing.

c) Clamp workpiece or brace against the col-

umn to prevent rotation.

d) Use recommended speed for drill accesso-

ry and workpiece material.

9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make

sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Conductor size must be 16 A.W.G. for cords up to 100 feet in length. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged. Minimum Gage for extension cord:

16 A.W.G. 50ft 16 A.W.G. 100ft 14 A.W.G. 200ft 12 A.W.G. 300ft

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL Do not wear

loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also

use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.

1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working

order.

2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see

that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning on.

3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered

areas and benches invite accidents.

4. DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or

wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.

5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors

should be kept a safe distance from work area.

6. MAKE WORK SHOP KID PROOF with

padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.

7. DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job bet-

ter and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or

attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

Additional Safety Instructions For Drill Presses

17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.

18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further

use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine 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 damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.

19. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a

blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.

20. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave

tool until it comes to a complete stop.

4. Feed the drill bit evenly into the workpiece.

Back the bit out of deep cuts to cool and clean the bit.

5. Never attempt to clean wood or metal cut-

tings from drill bits while the drill press is running.

6. Work should be secured in such a way so as

to avoid drilling into the table.

1. Never use a bit with a tapered shank or

square bit in a drill chuck.

2. Remove metal cuttings with a brush, never

by hand.

3. Never drill sheet metal unless it is securely

clamped to the table.

12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to

hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.

13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times.

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools

sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and

changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.

16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off posi-

tion before plugging in.

Figure 1.

Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Check with a qualified electrician or one of our service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept

the tool’s plug. FIgure 1.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

110V Operation

The G4008/G4009 Drill Press is supplied with a U.S made 110V/220V motor. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 9 amps @ 110V. We recommend using a 15 amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse for 110V operation. This should be satisfactory for normal use, while preventing motor damage from high heat caused by overload. If frequent circuit failures occur when using the drill press, contact our service department or your local electrical contractor.

220V: Contact the service department for further

instruction on wiring for 220V.

Grounding

CAUTION: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED

WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connections of the electrical-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with green or green and yellow striped insulation is the electrical-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
