IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THE SAFE AND
EFFECTIVE USE OF THIS TOOL.
WARNING: READ ALL INSTRUCTONS. Failure to follow the IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
listed BELOW, and other basic safety precautions, may result in serious personal injury.
1. KEEP TRANSPARENT CHUCK 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 it 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 lit.
5. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance from work area.
6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing
starter keys.
7. DON’T FORCE TOOL. Drill Press will do the job better, 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.
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
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.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than
using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all time.
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 when changing accessories, such
as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off
position before plugging in.
17. NEVER STAND OR LEAN ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if
the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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 an d
2
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 and unplug from
power supply. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRILL PRESS
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your drill
press works. Read and save this manual to understand this drill press.
When Installing or Moving the Drill Press
Reduce the Risk of Dangerous Environment
z Use the drill press in a dry, indoor place protected from rain.
z Keep work area well lit.
Reduce the Risk of Injury from Unexpected Drill Press Movement
If there is any tendency of the drill press to tilt or move during any use, bolt it to the
floor. Make sure to leave adequate room to fully open the belt guard. If the workpiece is
too large to easily support with one hand, provide an auxiliary support.
zTo reduce the risk of injury from electrical shock, make sure your fingers do not
touch the plug’s metal prongs when plugging in or unplugging the drill press.
zNever Stand or Lean on Tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool tips or you
accidentally hit the cutting tool. Do not store anything above or near the tool where
anyone might stand on the tool to reach for tools above them.
Before Each Use
Inspect Your Drill Press
zTo reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting, turn the switch off, unplug the
drill press, and remove the switch key before raising the guard, changing the cutting
tool, changing the setup, or adjusting anything. Make sure switch is in OFF position
before plugging in.
zCheck for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
drill press stability, and any other conditions that may affect the way the drill press
works.
zIf any part is missing, bent or broken in any way, or any electrical part does not
work properly, turn the drill press off and unplug the drill press.
z Replace damaged or missing parts before using the drill press again.
z Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of checking for and removing
keys and adjusting wrenches from table top before turning drill press on.
zMake sure all clamps and locks are tight and no parts have excessive play.
Use Only Accessories Designed For This Drill Press To Reduce The Risk of
Serious Injury From Thrown Broken Parts Or Workpieces
zWhen cutting large diameter holes:
- Clamp the workpiece firmly to the table. Otherwise the cutting may grab and
spin it at high speed.
3
- Use only one piece, cup-type, hole cutters.
- Do not use fly cutters or multi-part hole cutters as they can come apart or
become unbalance in use.
- Keep speed below 1500rpm.
- Drum sanders must never be operated on this drill press at a speed greater
than 1800rpm.
zDo not install or use any drill that exceed 7” in length or extends 6” below the chuck
jaws. They can suddenly bend outward or break.
zDo not use wire wheels, router bits, shaper cutters, circle (fly) cutters or rotary
planers on this drill press.
Kickback
zKickback is the grabbing of the workpiece by the rotating tool. The workpiece can be
thrown at a very high speed in the direction of rotation. This Can Cause Serious Injury. To reduce the possibility of injury from kickback:
- Clamp the workpiece firmly to the table whenever possible.
- Buffing or sanding wheels or drums should be contacted on the side moving
away from you, not the side moving toward you.
- Use only recommended accessories and follow the instructions supplied with the
accessory.
This drill press has 9 speeds as listed below:
335 RPM 568 RPM 715 RPM
752 RPM 944 RPM 1200 RPM
1890 RPM 2280 RPM 2815 RPM
See inside of guard for specific placement of belt on pulleys.
Think Safety
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the
drill press is being used.
WARNING: Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your drill
press) to become commonplace. Always reme m ber that a careless fracti on of a
second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
Plan Your Work
zDon’t force the tool. Drill Press will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
zUse the right tool. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed to
do.
zIf any part of your drill press is missing, malfunctioning, has been damaged or
broken, such as the motor switch, or other operating control, a safety device or the
power cord, turn the drill press off and unplug it until the particular part is properly
repaired or replaced.
zNever place your fingers in a position where they could contact the drill or other
cutting tool if the workpiece should unexpectedly shift or your hand should slip.
zTo reduce the risk of injury from parts thrown by the spring, follow instructions
exactly as given and shown in adjusting spring tension of quill.
zTo prevent the workpiece from being torn from your hands, spinning of the tool,
shattering the tool or being thrown, always properly support your work so it won’t
shift or bind on the tool:
- Always position backup material (use beneath the workpiece) to contact the left
4
side of the column.
- Whenever possible, position the workpiece to contact the left side of the column
– If it is too short to the table, use table slots or clamping ledge around the
outside edge of the table.
- When using a drill press vise, always fasten it to a table.
- Never do any work “Freehand” (hand holding workpiece rather than supporting it
on the table), except when polishing.
- Securely lock head to column, table support to column and table to table support
before operating drill press.
- Never move the head or table while the tool is running.
- Before starting the operation, jog the motor switch to make sure the drill or
other cutting tool does not wobble or cause vibration.
- If a workpiece overhangs the table such that it will fall or tip if n o t held, clamp it
to the table or provide auxiliary support.
- Use fixtures for unusual operations to adequately hold, guide and position
workpiece.
- Use the spindle speed recommended for the specific operation and workpiece
material.
zNever climb on the drill press table, it could break or pull the entire drill press down
on you.
zTurn the motor switch off, unplug from power supply, and put away the switch key
when leaving the drill press.
zTo reduce the risk of injury from thrown work or tool contact, do not perform layout,
assembly or setup work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.
z Don’t overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
z Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Plan Ahead to Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Face and Ears Dress for Safety
zDo not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wrist watches). They
can get caught and draw you into moving parts.
z Wear non-slip footwear.
z Tie back long hair.
z Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
z Noise levels vary widely. To reduce the risk of possible hearing damage, wear ear
plugs or muffs when using drill press for hours at a time.
zAlways wear safety glasses. Any power tool can throw foreign objects into the eyes.
This can result in permanent eye damage. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact
resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses.
zFor dusty operations, wear a dust mask along with safety goggles.
Reduce the Risk of Accidental Starting
z Make sure switch is “OFF” before plugging drill press into a pow er outlet.
Keep Children Away
z Keep all visitors at safe distance from the drill press.
z Make sure bystanders are clear of the drill press and workpiece.
Before Leaving the Drill Press
z Turn the drill press off.
