5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR DRILL PRESS
Tool Use
DON'T FORCE TOOL
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Don't force a small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy duty tool. Don't used tool for purpose not
intended—for example, don't use a circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.
SECURE WORK
Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the
tool.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED
Turn power off. Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
Tool Care
DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL
These tools are precision built. Any alteration or modification not specified is misuse and may result in
dangerous conditions.
AVOID GASEOUS AREAS
Do not operate electric tools in a gaseous or explosive atmosphere. Motors in these tools normally spark,
and may result in a dangerous condition.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service
facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.), be sure voltage
supplied is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater
than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in
doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is
harmful to the motor.
Warning For your own safety, do not operate your drill press until it is completely assembled and installed
according to the instructions ... and until you have read and understood the following:
STABILITY OF THE DRILL PRESS
If there is any tendency of the drill press to tilt or move during any use, bolt it to the bench top or to a
piece of 3/4" exterior plywood large enough to stabilize the drill press. Bolt the plywood to the underside
of the base so it extends beyond the sides of the base. DO NOT USE PRESSED WOODS PANELS. They can
break unexpectedly. If the workpiece is too large to easily support with one hand, provide an auxiliary
support.
LOCATION
Use the drill press in a well lit area and on a level surface, clean and smooth enough to reduce the risk of
trips and falls. Use it where neither the operator nor the casual observer is forced to stand in line with a
potential kickback.
PROTECTION: Eyes, hands, ears and body.
TO AVOID BEING PULLED INTO THE SPINNING TOOL—
DO NOT WEAR: Loose fitting gloves
Necktie
Loose clothing
Jewelry
DO: TIE BACK LONG HAIR
