WRITE THE PRODUCT’S SERIAL NUMBER ON THE BACK OF THE MANUAL NEAR THE ASSEMBLY DIAGRAM (OR MONTH AND YEAR OF PURCHASE IF PRODUCT HAS NO NUMBER).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. SAFETY The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION 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 cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Use Only Accessories Designed For This Drill Press To Reduce The Risk of Serious Injury From Thrown Broken Parts Or Work Pieces When cutting large diameter holes: - Clamp the workpiece firmly to the table. Otherwise the cutting may grab and spin it at high speed. - 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 unbalance in use. - Keep speed below 1500rpm.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION To prevent the workpiece 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 to the table. Use table slots or clamping ledge around the outside edge of the table.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY INFORMATION NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use only if you already have a properly grounded 2-prong outlet. NOTE: In Canada the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code WIRE SIZES NOTE: Make sure the proper extension cord is used and is in good condition. The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent overheating and motor burnout, use the table as below to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.
