SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC DRILL PRESS
1. Always use safety strap when drilling overhead or on a vertical surface (see “Safety Strap” under “Operation”).
Mounting can release.
2. Clean the surface before attaching the drill stand to the work surface. Paint, rust, scale, or uneven surfaces decrease the holding
strength of the magnet. Chips, burrs, dirt and other foreign matter on the surface of the magnet base will also decrease holding power.
3. Do not attach magnetic base to nonmagnetic grades of stainless steel. The magnetic base WILL NOT hold. The electromagnetic drill
press attaches magnetically to 3/8" or thicker ferrous stock. Do not use on stock less than 3/8".
4. Wet connections are shock hazards. If the plug or connections get wet, turn power off to the outlet before unplugging the tool. Prevent
cutting fluid from traveling along the cord and contacting the outlet, extension cord connections or tool plug. Each time tool is plugged in, elevate
extension cord or gang box connections and arrange a drip loop.
5. Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.
6. Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
7. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
8. WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
9. Safety Strap
A. Do not use near acids or bleaching agents.
B. Do not use for overhead lifting.
C. Do not use strap if webbing is cut.
D. Webbing must be protected from sharp edges.
E. All hardware must be in line with direction of pull for rated capacity.

DANGER! To reduce the risk of injury, always keep hands,
rags, clothing, etc. away from moving parts and chips. Do
not try to remove chips while the cutter is rotating. Chips are
sharp and can pull objects into moving parts.
