The workpiece sits on the backup material which in typically a scrap piece of wood used to stabilize the workpiece. It also helps the drill make a cleaner hole. To keep it from spinning, have it touching the left side of the Column.

Warning: If the drill bit grabs and spins the workpiece, do not attempt to stop the spinning with your hands. Step back, and push the Switch down to the OFF position. Wait for the spindle to stop turning before dislodging the workpiece.

10.When the drilling is complete, press the Switch to the OFF position and remove the Switch Key (Keep the Switch Key in a safe place).
