• Keep hands away from the rotating drive.
Operating hazards
• During use of the device the operator's hands could
be exposed to dangers, e.g. cuts, abrasions and
heat. Wear suitable gloves to protect hands.
• The operator and maintenance personnel must be
physically capable to manage the weight and power
of the machine.
• Hold the machine correct: be prepared to counteract
typical or sudden movements – keep both hands ready.
• Be sure your body is well balanced and maintain a
solid stance.
• High reaction torques may arise in the event of a jam,
which could be caused by excessive loads on the drill,
the drill twisting inside the material being worked on,
or the drill penetrating the material being worked on.
• If tools are required to absorb the reaction torque, use
a suspension attachment whenever possible. If this
is not possible, we recommend side handles for ma-
chines with straight handle and pistol grip. At any rate
we recommend using tools to absorb if it is greater
than 4 Nm for machines with straight handles, greater
than 10 Nm for machines with pistol grip.
• Keep hands away from the rotating chuck and the
rotating drill.
• In the event of power failure release the startor stop
control.
• Only use the lubricants recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
• Always wear protective goggles. Wearing protective
gloves and protective clothing is recommended.
• A rotating file must not be operated at a speed high-
er than the rated speed.
• Wear a safety helmet when working overhead
• It should be noted that the machine tool still runs out
after the command device for starting and stopping
has been released
• Warning must be given of the risk of explosion or fire
with regard to the machined material.
Hazards due to repetitive motions
• When using a drill the operator may experience dis-
comfort in hands, arms, shoulders, neck or other
body parts whilst performing work-related tasks.
• Maintain a comfortable position whilst using this
tool, be mindful of a secure grip and avoid awkward
positions or positions making it difficult to maintain
your balance. The operator should change his pos-
ture during extended periods of use, which may help
to prevent discomfort and fatigue.

• If the operator experiences symptoms such as per-
sistent malaise, discomfort, palpitations, pain, tin-
gling, numbness, a burning sensation or stiffness,
these warning signs should not be ignored. The user
should consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Risks associated with accessories
• Disconnect machine from the power supply before
changing a tool or accessory.
• Only use accessories and materials sizes and types
recommended by the manufacturer; do not use oth-
er accessory and material types and sizes.
• Avoid direct contact with the machine tool during and
after use, as it may become very hot or sharp-edged.
• The maximum operating speed recommended by
the manufacturer of the grinding machine must be
equal to or higher than the rated speed marked on
the machine.
• Never fit a grinding disc, cutting wheel or cutter on a
grinding machine for grinding pencils. A fitted grind-
ing disc can cause very serious injuries or death.
• Do not use discs that are broken, cracked or that
may have fallen off.
• Only approved machine tools with the appropriate
shaft diameter may be used.
• Please note that the permissible speed for small
grinding instruments must be reduced due to the in-
creased length of the shaft between the collet end
and the small grinding instrument. It must be en-
sured that the minimum clamping length of 10 mm
is maintained.
• Be aware that there is a risk of mismatch between
the shaft diameter of the small grinding instrument
and the collet.
Hazards in the work environment
• Slipping, tripping and falls are main causes of injuries
at the workplace. Be mindful of surfaces which may
have become slippery during machine use, and of
tripping hazards caused by the air- or hydraulic hose.
• Proceed with caution in unfamiliar surroundings.
These may hold hidden dangers due to electrical
cables or supply lines.
• The drill is not suitable for use in explosive environ-
ments and is not insulated against contact with elec-
trical power sources.
• Verify there are no electrical lines, gas lines, etc.
which may result in a hazard in the event they are
damaged during machine use.
