OPERATIONAL CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS
STARTING AND STOPPING DRILL PRESS
The switch (A) Fig. 20, is located on the front of the drill press head. To turn the drill press “ON” move the switch up to the “ON” position. To turn the drill press “OFF” move the switch down to the “OFF” position.
MAKE SURE THAT THE SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD. IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE, MOVE THE SWITCH TO THE “OFF” POSITION. AN ACCIDENTAL

THE “OFF” POSITION
IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent unauthorized use. This can be done by grasping the switch toggle (B) and pulling it out of the switch, as shown in Fig. 21. With the switch toggle (B) removed, the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the drill press is operating, the switch can be turned “OFF” once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the switch toggle (B).
FLEXIBLE LAMP
The flexible lamp operates independently of the drill press. To turn the lamp “ON” and “OFF”, rotate switch
