To start the drill press, do these steps:

1.Make sure the starting switch paddle is down for OFF.

2.Make sure all fasteners and lock handles are tight.

3.Make sure the drill chuck key is removed.

4.Plug in the power cord.

5.Lift the ON/OFF switch to start the drill press, and make sure that your fingers are poised near the paddle, as shown in Figure 30. In case there is a problem you can turn the drill press off.

6.Observe and listen to the drill press, it should run smoothly, with little or no vibra- tion or rubbing noises.

•If you hear strange or unusual noises, shut the drill press OFF, and wait for the spin- dle to stop moving.

7.Unplug the drill press and refer to the “Troubleshooting” table on Page 27 to help isolate and correct the problem before using the drill press again.

WEAR safety goggles and a respirator during drill- ing or sanding opera- tions. Otherwise seri- ous personal injury may occur!
