side of the column.

– If it is too short 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 “Freehand” (hand holding 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
before operating drill 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
material.
z Never climb on the drill press table, it could break or pull the entire drill press down
on you.
z Turn the motor switch off, unplug from power supply, and put away the switch key
when leaving the drill press.
z To reduce the risk of injury from thrown work or tool contact, do not perform layout,
assembly or setup work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.
z Don’t overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
z Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Plan Ahead to Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Face and Ears Dress for Safety
z Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wrist watches). They
can get caught and draw you into moving parts.
z Wear non-slip footwear.
z Tie back long hair.
z Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
z Noise levels vary widely. To reduce the risk of possible hearing damage, wear ear
plugs or muffs when using drill press for hours at a time.
z Always wear safety glasses. Any power tool can throw foreign objects into the eyes.
This can result in permanent eye damage. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact
resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses.
z For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along with safety goggles.
Reduce the Risk of Accidental Starting
z Make sure switch is “OFF” before plugging drill press into a power outlet.
Keep Children Away
z Keep all visitors at safe distance from the drill press.
