Safety and operating instructions
Maintenance
Good service life and safe function is offered if the
instructions for lubrication, maintenance and over-
haul supplied with the machine are followed.
Use genuine Atlas Copco replacement kits and
parts only.
Warning
Make sure you are familiar with the operating instruc-
tions before you use this machine.
This machine, its attachments and accessories is
intended to be used for drilling, reaming, countersink-
ing.
If using other accessories carefully follow the in-
structions concerning speed limits, support handle
(for taking up sudden reaction forces) as well as
personal protection needed for the application.
For product liability and safety reasons any
modification to the machine, its attachments or ac-
cessories must be agreed in advance with an author-
ized technical representative of the manufacturer.
To prevent personal injury:
Familiarize yourself with the enclosed leaflet
"General Safety Instructions for Drilling and Tap-
ping.
Warning
Disassembly and assembly precautions
The rotor blades (vanes) in the tool contains PTFE.
The normal health and safety recommendations
concerning PTFE must be observed when handling
these rotor blades. Particles from wear of blades
might be found in the machine housing or on the
blades. Make sure that these particles do not get in
contact with open fire. Wash your hands before
smoking since PTFE-particles heated by glow can
produce fumes which may cause an allergic reaction.

Installation
Air quality
• For optimum performance and maximum machine
life we recommend the use of compressed air with
a maximum dew point of +10°C. We also recom-
mend the installation of an Atlas Copco refrigera-
tion-type air dryer.
• Use a separate air filter of type Atlas Copco FIL.
This filter removes solid particles larger than 15
microns and also removes more than 90 % of li-
quid water. The filter must be installed as close
as possible to the machine/equipment and prior
to any other air preparation unit such as REG or
DIM (please see Air Line Accessories in our main
catalogue). Blow out the hose before connecting.
Models which need air lubrication:
• The compressed air must contain a small quantity
of oil.
We strongly recommend that you install an Atlas
Copco oil-fog lubricator (DIM). This should be
set according to air consumption by the air line
tool according to the following formula:
L = Air consumption (litre/s).
(May be found in our sales literature).
D = Number of drops per min (1 drop = 15 mm
L* 0.2 = D
this applies to the use of long work cycle air line
tools. A single point lubricator type Atlas Copco
Dosol can also be used for tools with short running
cycles.
Information about Dosol settings may be found
under Air Line Accessories in our main catalogue.
Lubrication-free models:
• In the case of lubrication-free tools it is up to the
customer to decide on the peripheral equipment
to be used. However, it is no disadvantage if the
compressed air contains a small quantity of oil
e.g. supplied from a fog lubricator (DIM) or Dosol
