POWER
SOURCE
WARNING:
Do not connect drill press to the power
source until all assembly steps have been completed.
The motor is designed for operation on the voltage and
frequency specified. Normal loads will be handled safe-
ly on voltages not more than 10% above or below spec-
ified voltage. Running the unit on voltages which are not
within range may cause overheating and motor burn-
out. Heavy loads require that voltage at motor terminals
be no tess than the voltage specified on nameplate,
Drill press requires a 115/230 volt, 60 Hz power
source.
To use the drill press with a 230V power supply,
have a qualified electrician attach a 230 volt, 20/30A
three-prong
plug (not supplied) onto drill press line
cord.
Power supply to the motor is controlled by a rotary
switch.
