GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
To avoid mistakes that could cause serious injury, do not plug the Drill Press in until you have read and understood the following:
- READ and become familiar with the entire Operator’s Manual. LEARN the tool’s application, limitations, and possible hazards.
- KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and working order.
- REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before turning ON.
- KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
- DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp locations, or expose them to rain. Keep the work area well-lighted.
- KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance from the work area.
- MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks.
- DON’T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
- USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
- 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 result in a drop in line voltage and in loss of power that will cause the tool to overheat.
- WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear a protective hair covering to contain long hair.
- ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any Drill Press can throw foreign objects into the eyes that could cause permanent eye damage. ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (not glasses). Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistance lenses. They ARE NOT safety glasses.
- 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 the tool.
- DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing; when changing accessories such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
- REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging it in.
- USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the Operator Manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause serious injury.
- NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
- CHECK FOR 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.
- NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER “OFF”. Don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop.
- DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
- DO NOT use power tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

- ALWAYS operate the Drill Press in a well-ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection systems whenever possible. Dust generated from certain materials can be hazardous to your health.
CUT-OFF MACHINE SAFETY WARNINGS
- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
- Keep hands away from the sawing range. Do not reach under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can lead to injuries.- Apply the machine to the workpiece only when switched on. Otherwise, there is a danger of kickback when the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
- When sawing, the adjustable footplate must always face against the workpieceThe saw blade can become wedged and lead to loss of control over the machine.
- When the cut is completed, switch off the machine and then pull the saw blade out of the cut only after it has come to a standstill. In this manner, you can avoid kickback and can place down the machine securely.
- Use only sharp, flawless saw blades. Bent or unsharp saw blades can break or cause kickback.
- Do not break the saw blade to a stop by applying side pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be damaged, break, or cause kickback.
- Clamp material well. Do not support the workpiece with your hand or foot. Do not touch objects or the floor with the saw running. The danger of kickback.
- Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to an explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.
- When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
- Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than by hand.
