Safety Instructions
Safe work with the machine is only possible if you read
these operating instructions completely and strictly
follow the instructions contained herein. In addition, the
general safety instructions in the enclosed brochure have
to be observed. Take part in a practical introduction
before the first use. Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
If the connecting cable is getting damaged or cut during
the work, don't touch it, but instantly pull the plug out of
the socket. Never use the machine with damaged
connecting cable.
When drilling in ceilings or walls make sure you will not
cut through electrical mains, gas or water pipes. Use
metal detection systems if needed.
Before you start working, consult a statics specialist to
determine the exact drilling position. If drilling through
ceilings, secure the place below, because
the core may drop out.
Pay attention that the tool is not exposed to direct rain.
Do not use the tool in an environment with danger of explosion.

Do not use the tool standing on a ladder.

Do not drill into materials containing asbestos.

Never carry the tool at its cable and always check the tool, cable and

plug before use. Have damages only repaired by specialists. Only
insert the plug into the socket when the tool switch is OFF.
Modifications of the tool are prohibited.

The machine should only run under supervision of somebody. Plug

and switch the machine off if it is not under supervision, e.g. in case
of setting up and stripping down the machine, in case of voltage drop
or when fixing or mounting an accessory.
Switch the machine off if it stops for whatever reason. This way, you

avoid that it starts suddenly and not under supervision.
Don't use the machine if a part of the housing is damaged or in case

of damages on the switch, the connecting cable or plug.
When using the drill, always lead the line cord, extension cable and

suction tube backwards away from the machine.
Electrical tools have to be inspected visually by a specialist in regular

intervals.
When using the drill, cooling water is not allowed to get into the

motor and all electrical parts.
If water comes out of the drainage hole at the gear neck, stop your

work and have the tool repaired by an authorised service centre.
