possible,
position
the WORKPIECE to contact the left side of the column-if
it is too short or the table is tilted,
clamp solidly to the table.
Use table slots
or clamping ledge around
the outside edge
of the table.

If the workpiece is too large to easily support with
one hand, provide an auxiliary support,
7. 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, slips, or falls. Use it where neither the
operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand
in line with a potential kickback.
8. Kickback
Kickback is the grabbing of the workpiece by the
rotating toot. The workpiece can be thrown at 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.

When using a drill press
ten it to a table.

Never do any work "FREEHAND"
(handholding 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

basic drill press operation
--

Securely tock Head to Column, Table Sup.port to Column, and Tabte to Table Support
before operating dril! 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 not 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 maN.
terial--check
the panel inside the guard
cover for drilling information; for accessories, refer to the instructions provided with
the accessories.
f. Never climb on the drill press Tabte, it could
break or pull the entire drill press down on you.
g. Turn the motor Switch Off and remove the
Switch Key when leaving the drill press.
h. To avoid injury from thrown work or tool contact,
do NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup
work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.

Follow the following instructions for operating your drill
press to get the best results and to minimize the likeUihood of personal injury.
WARNING: For your own safety, aSways observe
the safety precautions here and on
pages 2, 3, and 4,
1. Protection: Eyes, Hands, Face, Ears and Body
WARNING: To avoid being pulled into the
spinning tool -1. Do NOT wear:
- gloves
-- necktie
- loose clothing
- jewelry
2. Do tie back long hair
a,

If 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.
Never 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.

2. Use onJy accessories designed for this drill
press to avoid serious injury from thrown broken parts or work pieces.
a. When Cutting Large Diameter Holes:
Clamp the workpiece firmly to the table. Otherwise the cutter may grab and spin it at high
speed.

To avoid injury from, parts thrown by the spring,
follow instructions exactly as given and shown
in adjusting spring tension of quill.
To prevent the workpie,ce 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
side of the column.
-- Whenever possible, position the WORKPIECE to contact the left side of the column-if it is too short or the table is tilted,
clamp solidly 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 "FREE HAND" (handholding workpiece rather than supporting it
on the table), except when polishing.

INSTALLING

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 unbalanced
in use.
Keep speed below 1,500 RPM.
b. Drum sanders must NEVER be operated on
this drill press at a speed greater than 1800
RPM.
c. Do not install or use any drili that exceeds 7" in
length or extends 6" below the chuck jaws. They
can suddenly bend outward or break.
d. Do not use wire wheels, router bits, shaper cutters, circle (fly) cutters or rotary planers on the
drill press.

DRILLS

CHUCK KEY

Insert drill into chuck far enough to obtain maximum
GRIPPING of the CHUCK JAWS . . . the jaws are
approx. 1" long. When using a small drill do not insert
it so far that the jaws touch the flutes (spiral grooves)
of the drill.

CHUCK

Make sure that the drill is CENTERED in the chuck
before tightening the chuck with the key.
Tighten the drill sufficiently, so that it does not SLIP
while drilling.
Turn the chuck key clockwise
terclockwise to loosen.
