Safety instructions when using long
drill bits
1)
Never operate at higher speed
than the maximum speed rating of
the drill bit. At higher speeds, the
drill bit is likely to bend if allowed to
rotate freely without contacting the
workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
2)
Always start drilling at low speed
and with the drill bit tip in contact
with the workpiece. At higher
speeds, the drill bit is likely to bend
if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
3)
Apply pressure only in direct line
with the drill bit and do not apply
excessive pressure. Drill bits can
bend causing breakage or loss of
control, resulting in personal injury.
Vibration and noise reduction
To reduce the impact of noise and
vibration emission, limit the time of
operation, use low-vibration and low-noise
operating modes as well as wear personal
