Safety measures during operation
CAUTION!
Danger due to inhaling dust and mist that is hazardous to health.
Dependent on the material which need to be processed and the used auxiliaries dusts
and mist may be caused which might impair you health.
Ensure that the harmful dust and mist generated are safely sucked off at the point of
origin and routed away from the working area or filtered. To do so, use a suitable
extraction unit.
CAUTION!
Risk of fire and explosion by using flammable materials or cooling lubricants.
Before processing inflammable materials (e.g. aluminium, magnesium) or using
inflammable auxiliary materials (e.g. spirit) it is necessary to take additional preventive
measures in order to safely avoid health risks.

the cause of the fault has been eliminated,
you have verified that there is no danger to personnel or objects.
WARNING!
If you bypass, remove or deactivate a safety device in any other way, you are

injuries due to components or workpieces flying off at high speed,
contact with rotating parts,
fatal electrocution,
The drilling machine features the following safety devices:
an emergency stop push button,
a drilling table with T-slots to fix the workpiece or a vice,
a drill chuck guard, in order to prevent interference with the rotating tool.
INFORMATION
The drilling machine can only be switched on if the drill chuck guard is closed.
WARNING!
Although the isolating safety devices provided and delivered with the machine are
designed to reduce the risks of workpieces being ejected or parts of tools or workpieces
