1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Instruction Manual for Operation (hereafter called "the Manual") provides the operator with useful information on how
to simplify the machine use by operating it correctly and in safe conditions.
The sections below must not be considered as a long and burdensome list of warnings: they must be regarded as a number
of instructions that improve machine performance and prevent damage to persons, objects or animals originating from
incorrect machine operation and use.
It is essential that each operator in charge of transporting, installing, commissioning, operating, maintaining, repairing and
dismantling the machine consults this manual and read it carefully before carrying out any operation. This will help him
avoid incorrect manoeuvres and prevent inconveniences that may jeopardise the machine integrity and eventually result
in risks for operators' safety.
If you are still in doubt or have points to clear on machine operation after reading this manual, do not hesitate to contact
the Manufacturer who will be ready to assist you promptly and carefully for better and most effi cient machine operation.
Finally, we would like to point out that existing regulations on safety, hygiene at work and environmental protection must
always be adhered to during all the phases of machine operation. The operator must therefore check that the machine
be operated exclusively in optimised safety conditions for both persons and objects.
This manual is to be considered as an integral part of the product. Therefore, along with the Declaration of Conformity, it
must be stored in a safe place where it can be consulted during the entire machine life and passed on to the new owner.
This manual was drawn up according to the regulations existing at the time when it was printed.
The Manufacturer reserves the right to change the machine without having to promptly update this manual. In
the event of disputes, the valid version is the Italian text.
Some of the pictures in this manual show details or accessories which may be different from those fi tted in your machine.
Components or guards may have been removed to make images more useful.

1.1 GENERAL

Conventional symbols:
To identify and make different danger types recognisable, the following symbols are used in the manual:
WARNING! WARNING!
DANGER FOR OPERATORS' RISK OF DAMAGE TO MACHINE OR
HEALTH AND SAFETY. DRILL PRODUCT.
In the text, symbols are accompanied by safety warning messages: these are short sentences to further exemplify the
type of risk/danger. Warning texts guarantee the safety of operators and prevent damage to the machine or drill product.
The drawings, pictures and diagrams in this manual are not scaled. They exemplify the information provided in the text and
are an addition to it: they are not meant to illustrate the supplied machine in details. For a more comprehensive overview
of the machine, drawings, pictures and diagrams represent the machine, or parts of it, without the protections or guards
in most cases.
Finally, a few words on annexes. As they are photocopies of catalogues, drawings, etc., they have the original ID and page
numbers (when provided with it). If they are not originally provided with a numbering, they are not given one.
