WARNING When using electric tools, the basic safety precautions
listed below should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric
shock, and personal injury. Read all these instructions before attempting
to operate this product. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
b) Don't use power tools in a dangerous environment.
Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain.
c) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the fumes or dust.
d) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
e) Make your workshop child proof. Use padlocks, master switches,
or remove starter keys.
2) Electrical safety
a) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
b) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
c) Use a proper extension cord and make sure it is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your machine draws. An undersized
cord causes a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
d) When operating electric tools, avoid body contact with grounded
or earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges, and
refrigerators.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
c) Use safety equipment. Use a face or dust mask when the cutting
operation is dusty. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions reduces personal injuries.
d) Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the switch is in the off-
position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
e) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
f) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
g) Secure workpieces. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when
practical. This is safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to
operate the tool.
h) Never stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the tool
tips or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
i) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Roll up long sleeves to
the elbow. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
j) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Keep guards in place and in working order.

b) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
c) Use right tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job for which it
was not designed.
d) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
e) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
f) Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off. Don't leave
tool until it comes to a complete stop.
g) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
h) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may
affect power tool operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
i) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
j) Use the recommended speed for the cutting tool or accessory
and workpiece material.
k) Only use parts and accessories recommended by the
manufacturer. Consult the owner's manual for recommended
accessories. Using improper accessories may cause personal injury.
l) Use the power tool, accessories, and tool bits in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type
of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using
only identical replacement parts. This ensures that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
a) Do not reach inside the machine base from the bottom when the
machine is connected to power.
b) To prevent accidental contact with the drill bit from below, always
place the machine on a solid work surface. Do not use the machine
on any type of open-top stand.
c) Access panel must be closed and locked during operation.
d) Keep hands away from the rotating bit and workpiece clamp
when operating the machine.
e) Make sure the bit is completely withdrawn from the workpiece
and comes to a complete stop before adjusting the workpiece position.
f) Do not release the control arm until it is returned to the full-upright
position. The control arm has a spring return and will snap back if
released.
g) Wear gloves when replacing or changing the drill bit. Drill-bit
edges are sharp.
h) Secure the machine to prevent tipping or sliding. Never stand on
the machine.
i) Follow all lubrication and maintenance practices detailed in the
instruction manual.
j) Remove the drill bit from the machine after use or when storing it.
k) This machine is designed for a specific application. Do not
modify and/or use it for any other application. If you have questions
relative to the application of the machine, DO NOT use it until you have
contacted Kreg Tool Company and have been advised accordingly.
