WARNING: NO PORTION OF THIS MANUAL MAY BE REPRODUCED IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM WITHOUT

THE WRITTEN APPROVAL OF WOODSTOCK INTERNATIONAL, INC.

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.

Standard Safety Instructions

READ MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE

FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS BELOW WILL

RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY

1. Thoroughly read the instruction manual before operating your machine. Learn the applications,

limitations and potential hazards of this machine. Keep manual in a safe, convenient place for future reference.

2. Keep work area clean and well lighted. Clutter and inadequate lighting invite potential hazards.

3. Ground all tools. If a machine is equipped with a three-prong plug, it must be plugged into a

three-hole electrical outlet or grounded extension cord. If using an adapter to aid in accommodating a two-hole receptacle, ground the adapter using a screw to a known ground.

4. Wear eye protection at all times. Use safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles, meeting the national safety standards, while operating this machine.

5. Avoid dangerous environments. DO NOT operate this machine in wet or open flame environments. Airborne dust particles could cause an explosion and severe fire hazard.

6. Ensure all guards are securely in place and in working condition.

7. Make sure switch is in the “OFF” position before connecting power to machine.

8. Keep work area clean; free of clutter, grease, etc.

9. Keep children and visitors away. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance away while operat-

ing unit.

10. Childproof workshop with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.

11. Disconnect machine when cleaning, adjusting or servicing.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, MAY result in minor or moderate injury and damage to the machine. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about proper operation of the equipment.

NOTICE

SAFETY

1. Always operate your drill press at speeds that are appropriate for the drill bit size and the

material that you are drilling.

2. Feed the drill bit evenly into the workpiece. Back the bit out of deep holes and clear the chips with a brush after you have turned the machine off.

3. Make sure the drill bit you are using is tightened properly. Use only round, hex or triangular shank drill bits.

4. Never do maintenance or change speeds with this machine plugged in.

5. Never use tools that are in poor condition. Cutting tools that are dull or damaged are difficult to

control and may cause serious injury.

6. Never drill sheet metal unless it is clamped securely to the table.

7. Properly position workpieces to avoid drilling into the table.

8. A face guard used with safety glasses is recommended.

9. Always clamp workpiece securely to table before drilling. Never hold a workpiece by hand while

drilling.

10. Always remove handles before using oscillating feature.

11. Habits – good and bad – are hard to break. Develop good habits in your shop and safety will

become second-nature to you.

12. DO NOT force tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was designed.

13. Use correct tool. DO NOT force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

14. Wear proper apparel. DO NOT wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, etc.

15. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Before turning the machine on, make it a habit to check that

all adjusting keys and wrenches have been removed.

16. Use proper extension cord. When using an extension cord, make sure it is in good condition. When extension cord is 100' and less in length, use those that are rated Standard Service (grade S) or better, and that have a conductor size of 16 A.W.G. A drop in line voltage, loss of power and overheating can result when using an undersized cord. The extension cord should have a ground wire and ground plug pin, as well.

17. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

18. DO NOT leave machine unattended. Wait until it comes to a complete stop before leaving the area.

19. Perform machine maintenance and care. Follow lubrication and accessory attachment instruc-

tions in the manual.

20. Keep machine away from open flame. Operating machines near pilot lights and/or open flames creates a high risk if dust is dispersed in the area. Dust particles and an ignition source may cause an explosion. Do not operate the machine in high risk areas, including but not limited to, those mentioned above.

Additional Safety Instructions for Drill Presses

SAFETY

Figure 1. Never drill while holding the

workpiece by hand.

Figure 2. Keep fingers away from spinning drill

bits, cutters, and sanding surfaces.

Figure 3. Remove switch safety key when

not in use.

Figure 4. Remove handles when using the

oscillating sanding feature.

Figure 5a. Never remove grounding pin.

Figure 5. Model W1667 wiring diagram.

Ground this machine! The electrical cord sup-

plied with the W1667 8

⁄2'' Oscillating Drill Press comes with a grounding pin. DO NOT remove the pin if your outlet does not accept a ground pin, see Figure 5a. Have the outlet box replaced by a qualified electrician or have an appropriate adapter installed. Remember, an adapter with a grounding wire does not guarantee the machine will be grounded. A ground source must always be verified in the electrical circuit within the wall or conduit.

Using an extension cord with an undersized gauge or one that is too long, generates heat in the cord that may cause fire or circuit damage. If you must use an extension cord, use the guidelines below to determine the correct cord length and gauge. The amp rating of the motor is 9 amps and can be found on its nameplate.

•Use a cord rated for Standard Service (Grade S)

•Use a cord that is 16 gauge and 100 feet or less only

•Use a cord with a ground wire and pin

•Use only undamaged cords

The

SHOP FOX

W1667 8 1⁄2'' Oscillating Drill Press can only be operated at 110 volts (see Figure 5). The motor draws approximately 5 amps. Choose an outlet with a 10 amp circuit breaker or fuse protection. Remember circuits being used by other machines at the same time add to the total electrical load being applied by this machine. If this total amperage load exceeds the amperage rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different circuit with a higher amperage rating.

DO NOT modify an existing low-amperage circuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with a breaker rated for a higher amperage. The breaker and the complete circuit must be replaced by a qualified electrician.

DISCONNECT power to machine before performing any electrical or mechanical service or maintenance. Seek assistance from a qualified electrician if you do not understand the wiring diagram in this manual. Always follow the applicable electrical codes and standards. Otherwise serious personal injury or death may occur!

To install the base and column, do these

steps:

1. Position the drill press base on a flat and

stable surface.

2. Using two clamps, clamp the base to the mounting surface.

3. Use the holes provided in the bottom of the base as a drill guide, and drill holes in the mounting surface. See Figure 7.

4. Secure the base using

⁄16" lag bolts or sup-

plied through bolts with washers and nuts.

5. Place the column on the base, line up the 3 mounting holes, and secure tightly with the three M8-1.25 x 16mm hex head bolts using the open-end wrench provided.

Figure 7. Using holes as a drill guide.

To install the dust port, do these steps:

1. Position the two-piece dust port to the bottom of the table. See Figure 8.

2. Insert the four M4-0.7 x 22mm Phillips

head screws and tighten.

Figure 8. Installing the dust port.

The dust port directs suction to the sanding sleeve, removing hazardous dust and increasing abrasive life.

The base and column must be securely mounted, so if drilling an odd-shaped workpiece the machine will not fall over.
