Secure the work piece firmly. A work piece that is
gripped tightly in a clamping device or vice, is more
secure than if held by hand.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs onto the
power tool. If the insulation is damaged, protection
against an electric shock will be ineffective. Adhesive
labels are recommended.
Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the power tool manu-
facturer. Safe operation is not ensured merely because
an accessory fits your power tool.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at reg-
ular intervals using non-metal tools. The blower of the
motor draws dust into the housing. An excessive accu-
mulation of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connec-
tion and the mains plug for damage.
Recommendation: The tool should always be supplied
with power via a residual current device (RCD) with a
rated current of 30 mA or less.
Hand/arm vibrations
The vibration emission level given in this information
sheet has been measured in accordance with a stand-
ardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to
compare one tool with another. It may be used for a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the
main applications of the tool. However, if the tool is
used for different applications, with different accesso-
ries or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may
differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level
over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration
should also take into account the times when the tool
is switched off or when it is running but not actually
doing the job. This may significantly reduce the expo-
sure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the
tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organi-
sation of work patterns.
Operating Instructions.
Guide the power tool toward the work piece only
when switched on.
While cutting, hold the power tool as upright as possi-
ble to the work-piece surface.
Guide the power tool uniformly and with light feed in
the cutting direction. Excessive feed reduces the tool
life of the application tools.
Do not cut steel sheets where welded. Do not cut lay-
ered sheets exceeding the max. work-piece thickness.
To increase the tool life of punch and die, it is recom-
mended to apply a lubricating agent alongside the
intended cutting line:
– For cuts in steel sheet: Cutting paste or cutting oil,
– For cuts in aluminium: Petroleum.
For inside cuts, a pilot hole is required; see "Technical
Data" for diameters.
Do not switch the power tool off until after having
removed it from the cutting path.
The symptom for worn punches and dies are a clearly
increased feed force at lower working progress.

(**): Punch and die cannot be reground.
BLK2.0E (**)/BLK3.5 (**)/BLK5.0 (**): The punch – not
the die – can be reground as long as the length of the
reground punch does not fall below the minimum die
length.

BLK2.0E (**)/BLK3.5 (**): For template cuts, the tem-
plate is traced via the lower cylindrical part of the punch
guide. The clearance between template and the actual
cutting edge is 2.5 mm.
The template should be at least 2 mm thick; the total
thickness of template and work piece may not exceed
5.5 mm.
BLK1.6E (**): For cutting deep-channel trapezoidal
sheet metal, the optionally available profile set 160 can
be mounted. (see page 14)
Repair and customer service.
When working metal under extreme oper-
ating conditions, it is possible for conductive
dust to settle in the interior of the power
tool. The total insulation of the power tool can be
impaired. Blow out the interior of the power tool via
the ventilation slots frequently with dry and oil-free
compressed air, and connect a residual current device
(RCD) on the line side.
Lightly grease the sliding surfaces between die
holder and punch.
Products that have come into contact with asbestos
may not be sent in for repair. Dispose of products con-
taminated with asbestos according to the applicable
country-specific regulations for such disposal.
When the machine's power supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or their repre-
sentative.
