not insert bit as far into the chuck where it
allows jaw contact with drill flutes.
Center drill bit into the chuck and tighten
the chuck securely with the chuck key.
Note: Always use sharp, straight bits.
Never use bits with turned down shafts.
Never exceed the maximum diameter bit
size for the machine.
Always wear appropriate clothing while
operating the drill press.
All guards and interlocks must be in place
when operating the machine.
