9.3 Adjusting the tapping angle
9.3.1 Tilting angle
1. Push the release lever (16) and carefully tilt the control handle (9) to the desired
angle (Fig. P).
2. Tighten the locking knob (15) to secure the control handle (9) in place (Fig. P).

3. Test the motion of the control handle (9). Make sure it moves freely within its
adjusted angle range without any binding or resistance.
9.3.2 Swivel angle
1. Carefully rotate the control handle (9) to the desired angle (Fig. Q).
2. When adjusting the angle, ensure the cable sheath does not become pinched or
constricted.

9.4 Operator position
WARNING! Risk of injury due to improper operator position!
» To maintain control and minimise the risk of accidents or strain, adopt a
recommended operating position for the tool, which includes maintaining a stable
and balanced stance, proper body posture and ensuring correct hand placement
and foot positioning.
• Position yourself to the side of the tool, not directly in front of the rotating tap.
This helps protect in case of a tap breakage or unexpected tool movement.
• Maintain a stable, balanced stance with your feet shoulder-width apart to ensure
good control and stability during the tapping operation.
• Keep your body and hands clear of the rotating tap and moving parts of the tool at
all times. Avoid placing any part in the path of the tap or other components.

9.5 Operation tips
• Apply a consistent and steady pressure when guiding the tap into the workpiece.
Avoid rapid or jerky movements, as this can cause the tap to break.
• Maintain a smooth, in-and-out motion during the tapping process. This helps
ensure the tap threads are cut evenly and prevent damage to the workpiece.
• Retract the tap slowly and carefully when the tapping is complete. This helps
prevent damage to the threads.
• Repeat the tapping process in a controlled manner. Avoid using excessive force or
uneven application of pressure, as this can lead to tap breakage or poor thread
quality.
• When operating the tool auto mode, do not manually move or override the
automated tapping movement, as this can disrupt the controlled process and lead
to potential damage or poor thread quality.
• Use a suitable cutting oil during the tapping operation. The cutting oil helps to
lubricate the tap and the workpiece, dissipating heat and facilitating the removal
of metal chips.
• Ensure the parameter settings are within the recommended range to ensure
consistent tapping performance.
• Adjust the tapping speed and use the correct tap size and style based on the
workpiece material.
• Position the air nozzle (12) close to the tapped hole. Avoid touching the workpiece
to efficiently blow out any metal chips.
• Adjust the delay time of the oil burst in the User parameter. Apply the
lubrication oil just before and during the tapping process for optimal results.
10. Cleaning and care
WARNING! Risk of electric shock!
» Switch off the tool and disconnect it from the power source before any cleaning.
This is to reduce the risk of electric shock and prevent accidental startup during
cleaning.
10.1 Cleaning
CAUTION! Risk of damage!
» Apply the cleaning solution onto a cloth or sponge before wiping the tool, rather
than directly applying it to the tool. This helps prevent excessive moisture or
cleaning agent from entering sensitive areas and potentially causing damage.
» Avoid using harsh chemicals or chlorine-based solvents, as well as abrasive
materials such as steel wool or rough scrub brushes, as they can cause damage.
» Test the cleaner in a less visible area first to check for any unintended effects.
10.1.1 Cleaning the tool
1. Use a vacuum cleaner with a suitable attachment to remove any excess metal
chips, shavings or other debris from the tool.
2. Take a dry cloth and wipe off any remaining dust from the tool. Make sure to cover
all areas thoroughly.
3. If there is any resin build-up on the tool, use a resin dissolving cleaner. Always
follow the instructions of the resin cleaner manufacturer. Allow the cleaner to
work on the affected areas and then wipe it away with a clean cloth.
10.1.2 Cleaning the quick-connect tap adapter and collet chuck
1. Use a soft-bristle brush and/or a clean, lint-free cloth to gently wipe away any
metal chips, shavings or debris build-up.
2. Use compressed air to blow out any remaining debris from hard-to-reach areas.
3. Apply a thin, even coat of high-quality machine oil or lubrication oil to:
– the internal threads inside the tap adapter,
– the outer cylindrical surface of the tap adapter that interfaces with the tool's
spindle,
– the internal tapered surface of the collet chuck.
10.1.3 Cleaning the air/oil nozzle
1. Use a small pin or needle to carefully scrape and remove any built-up debris from
the nozzle openings.
2. Wipe the nozzles (11/12) and surrounding areas clean with a lint-free cloth to
remove any remaining residue.
