A control system for electric power tools to automatically control the operation of the machine and related systems. The control system includes a keypad for restricting operation of the machine to authorized users armed with knowledge of assigned access codes, while providing automated control of various machine components and systems. The system further includes electrical power output control for controlling power supplied to the machine and associated systems, a timer to limit operating time, and audio/visual warning beacons. Upon entering a security code, the control system functions to activate the machine by providing electrical power to any primary and secondary electric motors, lighting systems, power supply outlets, dust collection systems, and audio or visual safety warning systems. An internal timer disconnects the electrical power supply after a predetermined amount of time, e.g. 5 minutes, thereby insuring that the machine is not inadvertently left on.
