tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• 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 infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye pro-
tection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing pro-
tection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying
tools with your fi nger on the switch or plugging
in power tools that have the switch on invites ac-
cidents.
• 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.
The term "power
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• 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.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tools or these instructions to
operate power tools. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., 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.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
• Always use safety strap when drilling over-
Failure
head or on a vertical surface (see "Safety
Strap" under "Operation"). Mounting can
release.
• Clean the surface before attaching the drill
stand to the work surface. Paint, rust, scale, or
uneven surfaces decrease the holding strength
of the magnet. Chips, burrs, dirt and other foreign
matter on the surface of the magnet base will also
decrease holding power.
• Do not attach magnetic base to nonmagnetic
grades of stainless steel. The magnetic base
WILL NOT hold. The electromagnetic drill press
attaches magnetically to 3/8" or thicker ferrous
stock. Do not use on stock less than 3/8".
• Wet connections are shock hazards. If the plug
or connections get wet, turn power off to the outlet
before unplugging the tool. Prevent cutting fl uid
from traveling along the cord and contacting the
outlet, extension cord connections or tool plug.
Each time tool is plugged in, elevate extension
cord or gang box connections and arrange a drip
loop.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.
• Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure
to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping sur-
faces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator.
• WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-
cially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.
• Safety Strap
A. Do not use near acids or bleaching agents.
B. Do not use for overhead lifting.
C. Do not use strap if webbing is cut.
D. Webbing must be protected from sharp
edges.
E. All hardware must be in line with direction
of pull for rated capacity.

DANGER! To reduce the risk
of injury, always keep hands,
rags, clothing, etc. away from
moving parts and chips. Do
not try to remove chips while
the cutter is rotating. Chips are
sharp and can pull objects into
moving parts.
