Hazards when using a pillar drill?

When using a pillar drill, hazards include the risk of entanglement from loose clothing or hair getting caught in the rotating drill bit. There is also the potential for flying debris or metal shavings, which can cause eye injuries if proper protective eyewear is not worn. Additionally, improper handling or operation can lead to drill bit breakage, posing a risk of cuts or punctures. Finally, inadequate workspace organization can result in slips, trips, or falls around the machine.
