ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

FOR DRILL PRESSES

1. WARNING: DO NOT operate your drill press until it is

completely assembled and installed according to the

instructions.

2. IF YOU ARE NOT thoroughly familiar with the opera-

tion of drill presses, obtain advice from your supervisor,

instructor or other qualified person.

3. YOUR DRILL PRESS MUST be securely fastened to a

stand, workbench or floor. If there is any tendency for the

stand or workbench to move during operation, the stand or

workbench MUST be fastened to the floor.

4. NEVER turn the drill press “on” before clearing the

table of all objects (tools, scrap pieces, etc.).

5. NEVER start the drill press with the drill bit or cutting

tool in contact with the workpiece.

6. ALWAYS keep hands and fingers away from the drill bit

or cutting tool.

7. DO NOT ATTEMPT to drill material that does not have

a flat surface, unless a suitable support is used.

8. AVOID awkward hand positions where a sudden slip

could cause a hand to move into the drill bit or cutting

tool.

9. TO PREVENT ROTATION OF THE WORKPIECE,

ALWAYS clamp work securely to table if it is too short to

contact the column (see “OPERATION” section of this

manual) or when using hole saw or cutting tools larger than

1/2² in diameter.

10. WHENEVER POSSIBLE use clamps or vise to keep

workpiece from rotating with the drill bit or cutting tool.

11. USE recommended speed for drill, accessory or work-

piece material.

12. WARNING: The use of accessories or attachments not

recommended by Delta may result in risk of injury.

13. MAKE CERTAIN all lock handles are tightened before

starting the machine.

14. NEVER perform layout, assembly or set-up work on

the table while the drill is operating.

15. BE SURE drill bit or cutting tool is not damaged and is

properly locked in the chuck before operating.

16. MAKE SURE chuck key is removed from chuck before

starting drill press. ONLY use chuck key provided with

your drill press. It is equipped with a self-ejecting pin

which eliminates the hazard of the key being left in the

chuck.

17. ADJUST the table or depth stop to avoid drilling into

the table.

18. ALWAYS stop the drill press before removing scrap

pieces from the table.

19. WHEN drilling large workpieces, MAKE SURE the

material is supported at table height.

tool, and clean the table and work area before leaving the

machine.

clothing when operating the drill press.

22. SHOULD any part of your drill press be missing, dam-

aged or fail in any way, or any electrical component fail to

perform properly, shut off switch and remove plug from

power supply outlet. Replace missing, damaged or failed

parts before resuming operation.
