1. Always use safety chain. Mounting can release when drilling overhead or on a vertical surface (See Safety Chain under Operation).
2. Clean the surface before attaching the drill stand to the work surface. Paint, rust, scale, or uneven surfaces decrease the holding
strength or the magnet. Chips, burrs, dirt and other foreign matter on the surface of the magnetic base will also decrease holding power.
3. Do not attach magnetic base to nonmagnetic grades of stainless steel. The magnetic base will not hold. The electro magnetic drill
press attaches magnetically to any ferrous metal. It is designed for use on 1/2 inch or thicker ferrous stock. Holding power will decrease on
thinner stock. A back up plate must be used (See Backing Plate" under Operation).
4. Wet connections are shock hazards. Prevent cutting fluid from traveling along the cord and contacting the outlet, extension cord connections
or tool plug.
5. If the plug or connections get wet, turn power off to the outlet before unplugging the tool.
6. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a live wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool live and shock the operator.
7. Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
8. Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.
9. WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based paint
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 specifically designed to filter out
microscopic particles.

DANGER! To reduce the risk of injury, always keep hands,
rags, clothing, etc. away from moving parts and chips. Do
not try to remove chips while the cutter is rotating. Chips
are sharp and can pull objects into moving parts.
