110 volt operation, only. The motor supplied
with your new drill press is rated at 1 horse
power and will draw approximately 10 amps.

sider using one with a 15 amp circuit breaker or
fuse. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by
other machines or tools at the same time will
add to the electrical load being applied by the
drill press. Add up the load ratings of all
machines on the circuit. If this number exceeds
the rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a
different outlet.
