11. Always ensure the table lock is tight before starting the drill.

12. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

13. Do not depress the spindle lock when starting or during operation.

POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not use a power tool with a broken or inoperative trigger/power switch.

2. Do not allow the tool to run without load for an extended period of time, as

this will shorten its life.

3. Do not cover the air vents. Proper cooling of the motor is necessary to

ensure normal life of the tool.

4. Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is off when connecting to

the power source.

5. Disconnect the power source before installing or servicing the tool.

6. After making adjustments, make sure that any adjustment devices are

securely tightened.

7. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench

or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increases the risk

of personal injury.

8. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could break the tool, resulting in

damage to your workpiece or serious personal injury. If your tool runs

smoothly under no load, but does not run smoothly under load, then

excessive pressure is being used.

9. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can operate at high temperatures

and can cause a burn injury.

8708703 16-Speed Floor Mount Drill Press V4.0

6 For technical questions call 1-800-665-8685

10. Only use accessories that are specifically designed for use with the tool.

Ensure the accessory is tightly installed.

CUTTING TOOL PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! Some surfaces contain materials which can be toxic. When

working on materials that may contain lead, asbestos, copper chromium

arsenate or other toxic materials, extra care should be taken to avoid

inhalation and minimize skin contact.

The term cutting accessory is used to represent a cutting blade, cutting wheel

or a cutting bit.

1. Keep hands away from the cutting area and the cutting accessory.

2. Only use a cutting accessory of the recommended size (see

Specifications).

3. Use the correct mounting hardware. The mounting hardware is designed to

hold the cutting accessory on the tool to allow optimum performance and

safety of operation. Mismatched mounting hardware may result in a tool

malfunction and cause an injury.

4. Only use a cutting accessory that exceeds the No Load Speed rating (see

Specifications).

5. Check the cutting accessory for damage before each use. A damaged

accessory can break during use and cause serious injury.

6. Inspect material for foreign objects such as staples, nails or debris.

Remove from material before cutting.

7. Affix the workpiece to a stable platform to prevent movement, minimize

body exposure to injury, cutting accessory binding or loss of control.

8. Do not touch the cutting accessory or the workpiece surface cut with this

tool. They may be hot and could inflict a burn injury.

DRILLING PRECAUTIONS

NOTICE! Immediately switch the power off if the drill bit becomes

stuck or jammed. The tool’s torque may damage the drill mechanism

and/or workpiece.

The term bit refers to any drill bits, router bits or tool accessories that penetrate

a material and creates a cavity through a rotary motion.

V4.0 16-Speed Floor Mount Drill Press 8708703

Visit www.princessauto.com for more information 7

1. Never force the tool’s bit. Forcing the tool will slow down the cutting speed

of the bit, causing it to bind. Apply gentle pressure and allow the bit to do

the cutting.

2. Do not use a bit with a dull or damaged cutting edge. Keep the cutting edge

sharp and clean. A dull bit may cause the tool to skitter across the work

surface instead of penetrating the material. This may cause an injury and

will damage the workpiece.

3. Hardened gum and wood pitch on a bit slows the tool down and increases

the potential for binding. Remove the bit from the tool, then clean it with

hot water, kerosene or gum and pitch remover. Never use gasoline. Allow

to dry before using. Discard the bit if the gum or pitch cannot be removed.

4. Do not apply side pressure on the bit unless it is designed for such a

purpose. The bit may bind or break.

5. A loose or mismatched cutting bit may be ejected by the tool, causing an

injury to the user or a bystander. It may also fail to penetrate the material

as the point may move around under pressure, damaging the workpiece.

a. Ensure the cutting bit shank size matches the tool’s chuck or

collet size.

b. Tighten the chuck or collet so the shank is tightly held with no room

to move.

KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged cutting accessory caught

on the material. The material can be ejected and inflict a serious injury on the

user or a bystander. Kickback can also damage the tool or workpiece.

Kickback can be avoided by taking proper precautions:

1. Maintain a firm grip on the material and position your body and arms to

allow you to resist a kickback. Kickback can propel the material in the

direction of the cutting accessory’s rotation.

a. Use a clamp to hold the material if the tool includes a clamping system.

2. Use special care when working on corners, sharp edges or flexible

material. These workpieces have a tendency to snag the cutting accessory.

3. Only use cutting accessories designed for the tool.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

WARNING! Do not touch or handle a live tool with any part of your body that

is wet or damp. Wet skin reduces resistance to electrical current,

increasing the danger of a serious or fatal shock.

WARNING! To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the plug is

connected to a properly grounded receptacle.

1. Disconnect tool from power source before cleaning, servicing, changing

parts/accessories or when not in use.

2. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical

equipment. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces. There is an

increased chance of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

3. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

4. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the ON/OFF switch on

the tool. This will prevent an accidental startup when the power cord is

plugged into the power supply.

a. In the event of a power failure, turn off the machine as soon as the

power is interrupted. The possibility of accidental injury could occur if

the power returns and the unit is not switched off.

5. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts and accessories are

designed with built-in safety features that may be compromised if altered.

6. Make certain the power source conforms to requirements of your

equipment (see Specifications).

7. When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety

codes, as well as the most recent Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and

Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).

8. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Check with a qualified

electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If

the tool should electronically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a

low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

a. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way, as

this will render the tool unsafe.

9. This device is only for use on 120 V (single phase) and is equipped with a

3-prong grounded power supply cord and plug.

10. DO NOT use this device with a 2-prong wall receptacle.

a. Choose an available 3-prong power outlet.

b. Replace 2 prong outlet with a grounded 3-prong receptacle, installed

in accordance with the CE Code and local codes and ordinances.

WARNING! All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.

POWER CORD

1. Insert the power cord plug directly to the power supply whenever possible.

Use extension cords or surge protectors only when the tool's power cord

cannot reach a power supply from the work area.

a. Use in conjunction with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If

operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, the use of a

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. It is recommended that the

GFCI should have a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.

2. Do not operate this tool if the power cord is frayed or damaged as an electric

shock or surge may occur, resulting in personal injury or property damage.

a. Inspect the tool's power cord for cracks, fraying or other faults in the

insulation or plug before each use.

b. Discontinue use if a power cord feels more than comfortably warm

while operating the tool.

c. Have the power cord replaced by a qualified service technician.

3. Keep all connections dry and off the ground to reduce the risk of electric

shock. Do not touch plug with wet hands.

4. Prevent damage to the power cord by observing the following:

a. Do not pull on the cord to disconnect the plug from an outlet.

b. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

c. Place the electrical cord in a position that prevents it from coming into

contact with the tool and from getting caught by the workpiece. The

cord should always stay behind the tool.

counterclockwise direction and insert the selected drill bit into the as far as

it will go. Secure the drill bit with the chuck key.

3. Adjust the table to your desired position, ensuring the table height and

position is set so that the drill travel range is sufficient to drill the material.

a. If the material is irregularly shaped and cannot be laid flat on the

table, it should be securely blocked and clamped. Any tilting, twisting

or shifting will result not only in a roughly drilled hole but also

increases the chances of damage to the drill.

b. Clamp or bolt a drill press vise to the table for small materials that

cannot be clamped to the table.

4. Select your drilling depth and secure the depth stop lock knob in position.

a. When drilling completely through wood, always position a piece of

scrap wood between the material and the table to prevent splintering

on the material’s underside as the drill breaks through. The scrap

piece of wood must make contact with the left side of the column.

Securely clamp the other end of the scrap wood to the table.
