• Avoid accidental starting.
Do not carry the power tool with your finger on the switch. Ensure the switch is in
the off position before plugging tool into power outlet. In the event of a power failure, while a tool is being
used, turn the switch off to prevent surprise starting when power is restored.
• Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before connecting to the power supply or turning on the tool. A
wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
• 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.
• 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 climb on or allow others to climb on the drill press table;
it could break or pull the entire drill
press down.
• Turn the motor Switch OFF and put away the Switch Key when leaving the drill press.
• 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.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not force the tool.
Tools do a better and safer job when used in the manner for which they are designed.
Plan your work, and use the correct tool for the job.
• Never use a tool
with a malfunctioning switch. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service representative before using.
• Disconnect power
from tool and place the switch in the locked or off position before servicing, adjusting,
installing accessories or attachments, or storing. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
• Secure work
with clamps or a vise instead of your hand to hold work when practical. This safety precaution
allows for proper tool operation using both hands.
• Store idle tools.
When tools are not is use, store them in a dry, secure place out of the reach of children.
Inspect tools for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
• Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.
• Keep guards in place
and in working order
