When connecting the machine to the electricity supply, always ensure that the
switch is set to "OFF", otherwise there is a risk that the machine will start up
unnoticed and unsupervised when the power is connected!
It is essential that the voltage on the machine's rating plate corresponds to the
power source, otherwise the machine could get hot, smoke could develop, start a
fire and cause damage!
The integrated overload protection automatically stops the machine in the event of
an overload or power fluctuations! Switching back on is not possible until one
minute has elapsed!
Use the extension cable H07 RN 3 x 1.5 mm2! The cable should not be longer than
30m!

The thread cutting oil
For tapping, use ROTHENBERGER high-performance thread-tapping oil art. no. 65010.
This oil is not suitable for tapping drinking water pipes!
Alternatively, you can use ROTHENBERGER high-performance thread-tapping fluid, art. no.
65015. This fluid is suitable for tapping all pipelines including drinking water pipelines.
Keep thread-tapping oils out of the reach of children!
Do not thin thread-tapping oil or mix it with other oils! If the thread-tapping oil becomes
mixed with water, it turns milky-white, its quality is reduced and the tapped thread dis-
plays lower quality. It is then recommended to change the oil!
Avoid direct sunlight and store the oil in a dark place!
Close the oil container tight after use in order to prevent the ingress of dirt and water!
ATTENTION PERSONS WITH ALLERGIES!
Thread-tapping oil that lands on the skin can cause skin irritation, inflammation and
allergic reactions! When handling oil, wear protective clothing and cover exposed
skin areas. If your skin comes into contact with oil, wash it immediately with tap
water and soap. If thread-tapping oil burns onto hot workpiece or tool surfaces, this
can produce toxic vapours or gases (e.g. chlorine gas when red oil burns). If you
have accidentally inhaled this oil mist or oil vapours, go out into the fresh air imme-
diately and consult a doctor without delay!

Checking the thread cutting oil
When cleaning, servicing, inspecting or repairing the machine, it is essential to
switch it off and pull out the mains plug (de-energised operation)!
Î
Turn the rotary handle (6) clockwise in order to move the
tool carriage (4) to the clamping chuck (8).
Î
On the right side of the machine, fill up with the thread
tapping oil to the level of the sieve mesh.
Î
Ensure that the machine is still switched off and insert the
mains plug back into the socket.
Î
Switch on the machine and ensure that the thread-tapping
oil runs out of the thread-tapping head to the cutting jaws. If
the right amount of oil is not supplied, regulate it with the oil
adjustment screw.
