A red light fault on an Ellis 9400 drill press when turning on the main switch could be caused by a low supply voltage or use of an inappropriate power source, such as an extension cord, adapter, surge protector, or GFCI-protected receptacle. The machine requires a dedicated 20 amp, 115-Volt AC circuit for proper operation. Loose wire connections at the terminals may also contribute.
