110V Operation

The SHOP FOX® W1669 and W1670 Radial Drill Presses operate at 110 volts only. The motor supplied with your new drill press is rated at 1⁄2 HP and will draw approximately 5 amps. When choosing an outlet for this machine, con- sider using one with a 15 amp circuit breaker or fuse. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the electrical load being applied by the drill press. Add up the load ratings of all machines on the circuit. If this number exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different outlet.

DO NOT modify an existing low-amperage circuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with a breaker rated for a higher amperage. The breaker and the complete circuit must be replaced by a qualified electrician.

Extension Cords

If you must use an extension cord, use the guide- lines below to determine the correct cord length and gauge. If you use an undersized-gauge exten- sion cord or one that is too long, heat will gener- ate in the cord and fire or circuit damage may result.

•Use a cord rated for Standard Service (Grade S) •Use a cord that is 16 gauge and 100 feet or

less

•Use a cord with a ground wire and pin •Use only undamaged cords

Grounding

Ground this machine! The electrical cord sup- plied with the W1669 and W1670 Radial Drill Press comes with a grounding pin. DO NOT remove the pin if your outlet does not accept a ground pin, see Figure 4. Have the outlet box replaced by a qualified electrician or have an appropriate adapter installed.

Remember, an adapter with a grounding wire does not guarantee the machine will be ground- ed. A ground source must always be verified in the electrical circuit within the wall or conduit.

-7-

Any electrical outlet and circuit that you plug your machine into must be grounded. Serious injury and/or fire may occur if this warning is ignored!

Figure 4. Never remove a grounding pin.
