• Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
• People with electronic devices, such as
pacemakers, should consult their physician(s)
before using this product. Operation of electrical
equipment in close proximity to a heart pacemaker
could cause interference or failure of the pacemaker.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY RULES
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tied or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause severe injury
within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free
from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR DRILL PRESS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR DRILL PRESS
• MAKE SURE there are no nails or foreign objects in the
part of the workpiece to be drilled.
• CLAMP THE WORKPIECE OR BRACE IT against the
left side of the column to prevent rotation. If it is too
short or the table is tilted, clamp it solidly to the table.
• IF THE WORKPIECE overhangs the table such that it
will fall or tip if not held, clamp it to the table or provide
auxiliary support.
• SECURE THE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold the
work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and
it frees both hands to operate tool.
• WHEN using a drill press vise, always fasten to the table.
• MAKE SURE all clamps and locks are rmly tightened
before drilling.
• SECURELY LOCK THE HEAD and table support to the
column, and the table to the table support before
operating the drill press.
• NEVER turn your drill press on before clearing the table
of all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.)
• BEFORE STARTING the operation, jog the motor switch
to make sure the drill bit does not wobble or vibrate.

WARNING
Feed workpiece into a sanding drum or other approved
accessory, against the direction of rotation.
WARNING
A kickback occurs when workpiece suddenly binds on
the cutting edge of the tool and the workpiece is thrown
by the cutter in the direction of the cutter’s rotation.
This can cause serious injury.
WARNING
WARNING
Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of
your drill press) to become commonplace. Always
remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufcient to inict severe injury.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• 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 lter
out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on
the skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
WARNING
Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust,
which may cause serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
• Wear appropriate hearing protection during use.
Under some conditions and duration of use, noise
from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING
ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eye glasses
are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CPA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR LASER

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND SAFETY
POWER SUPPLY AND MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
WARNING
To avoid electrical hazards, re hazards, or damage
to the tool, use proper circuit protection. Use a
seperate electrical circuit for your tool. Your drill
press is wired at the factory for 120 V operation.
Connect to a 120 V, 2.3 Amp circuit and use a
2.3 Amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. To avoid
shock or re, if power cord is worn, cut, or damaged
in any way, have it replaced immediately.
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
currents and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool
is equipped with an electrical cord that has an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into a matching receptacle that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED.
If it will not t the receptacle, have the proper receptacle
installed by a qualied electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor
with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is
the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement
of the electrical cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
CHECK with a qualied electrician or service person if you
do not completely understand the grounding instructions, or if
you are not certain the tool is properly grounded.
USE only 3-wire extension cords that have three-pronged
grounding plugs with three- pole receptacles that accept
the tool’s plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cords
immediately.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electrical shock.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool. This circuit must
not be less than #18 wire and should be protected with a
2.3 Amp time lag fuse. Before connecting the motor to the
power line, make sure the switch is in the off position and the
electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on
the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage
the motor.
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS USE THE
PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Use an
extension cord 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, overheating and burning
out of the motor. The table below 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.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good
condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have
it repaired by a qualied technician before using it. Protect
your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and
damp or wet areas.

ADVERTENCIAS GENERALES DE SEGURIDAD PARA HERRAMIENTAS ELECTRICAS
19
• No exponga las herramientas eléctricas a la lluvia o a
condiciones de humedad. Si ingresa agua en una
herramienta eléctrica, el riesgo de descarga eléctrica
aumentará.
• No maltrate el cable. Nunca use el cable para
transportar, jalar ni desenchufar la herramienta
eléctrica. Mantenga el cable alejado del calor, el aceite,
los bordes losos o las piezas en movimiento. Los cables
dañados o enredados aumentan el riesgo de descarga
eléctrica.
• Cuando utilice una herramienta eléctrica en exteriores,
use una extensión eléctrica adecuada para uso en
exteriores. El uso de un cable adecuado para uso en
exteriores reduce el riesgo de descarga eléctrica.
• Si es inevitable utilizar una herramienta eléctrica en un
lugar húmedo, use un suministro protegido con un
interruptor diferencial residual (RCD, por sus siglas en
inglés). El uso de un RCD disminuye el riesgo de
descargas eléctricas.
Seguridad personal
• Manténgase alerta, preste atención a lo que hace y
utilice el sentido común cuando utilice una herramienta
eléctrica. No utilice una herramienta eléctrica si está
cansado o bajo los efectos de drogas, alcohol o
medicamentos. Un momento de desatención mientras

personales graves.
• Use un equipo de protección personal. Use siempre
lentes de protección. Los equipos de protección, como
mascarillas antipolvo, zapatos de seguridad
antideslizantes, casco protector o protección auditiva
utilizados para las condiciones adecuadas disminuyen las
lesiones personales.
• Evite un arranque accidental. Asegúrese de que el
interruptor esté en la posición de apagado antes de
conectar la herramienta al suministro eléctrico o la
batería, o antes de levantarla o transportarla.
Transportar herramientas eléctricas con el dedo en el
interruptor o enchufar herramientas eléctricas que tienen
el interruptor encendido aumenta las posibilidades de
sufrir accidentes.
• Retire todas las llaves de ajuste o llaves inglesas antes
de encender la herramienta eléctrica. Si se deja una
llave inglesa o una llave conectada a una pieza giratoria
de la herramienta eléctrica, se pueden producir lesiones
personales.
• No se extienda demasiado. Mantenga una postura y un
equilibrio adecuados en todo momento. Esto permite un
mejor control de la herramienta eléctrica en situaciones
inesperadas.
• Use ropa adecuada. No use ropa holgada ni joyas.
Mantenga el cabello, la ropa y los guantes lejos de las
piezas en movimiento. La ropa holgada, las joyas o el
cabello largo pueden quedar atrapados en las piezas en
movimiento.
• Si se proporcionan dispositivos para la conexión de
instalaciones de extracción y recolección de polvo,
asegúrese de que se conecten y se usen debidamente.
La recolección de polvo puede disminuir los peligros
relacionados con el polvo.
• No permita que la familiaridad con el uso frecuente de
las herramientas lo haga no hacer caso a los principios
de seguridad en el manejo de herramientas. Un
descuido puede ocasionar una lesión grave en cuestión
de segundos.
Uso y cuidado de herramientas eléctricas
• No fuerce la herramienta eléctrica. Utilice la herramienta
eléctrica adecuada para su tarea. La herramienta
eléctrica adecuada realizará un trabajo más seguro y
de mejor calidad al ritmo para el que se la diseñó.
• No utilice la herramienta eléctrica si el interruptor no la
enciende o apaga. Cualquier herramienta eléctrica que no
pueda controlarse con el interruptor es peligrosa y debe
repararse.
• Desconecte el enchufe de la fuente de alimentación o
retire el paquete de baterías, si fuera posible, de la
herramienta eléctrica antes de realizar cualquier ajuste,
cambiar accesorios o almacenar herramientas
eléctricas. Este tipo de medidas de seguridad preventivas
reduce el riesgo de arranques accidentales de la
herramienta eléctrica.
• Almacene las herramientas eléctricas que no estén en
uso fuera del alcance de los niños y no permita que
personas no familiarizadas con la herramienta o estas
instrucciones la operen. Las herramientas eléctricas son
peligrosas en manos de usuarios sin capacitación.
• Realice mantenimiento a las herramientas eléctricas y
a los accesorios. Revise si hay desalineación o
trabamiento de piezas móviles o si están rotas, así
como cualquier otra condición que pueda afectar la
operación de la herramienta eléctrica. Si se daña la
herramienta eléctrica, hágala reparar antes de usarla.
Muchos accidentes son producto del mantenimiento
incorrecto de las herramientas eléctricas.
• Mantenga las herramientas de corte aladas y limpias.
Las herramientas de corte que se mantienen
adecuadamente, con sus bordes de corte alados, son
menos propensas a trabarse y son más fáciles de controlar.
• Use la herramienta eléctrica, los accesorios, las brocas,
etc. de acuerdo con estas instrucciones, considerando
las condiciones de trabajo y el trabajo que desea
realizar. El uso de la herramienta eléctrica en operaciones
distintas para las que fue diseñada podría crear una
situación de peligro.
• Mantenga las manijas y las supercies de agarre secas,
limpias y sin aceite ni grasa. Las manijas y las supercies
de agarre húmedas no permiten una manipulación segura
ni controlar la herramienta en situaciones inesperadas.
Reparación
• Permita que solo una persona capacitada repare la
herramienta eléctrica usando solo piezas de repuesto
idénticas. Esto mantendrá la seguridad de la herramienta
eléctrica.
