Many accidents are caused by accidental starting of power tools.
•
When mounting the stand, fix the base to a firm, level, surface or wall. The power tool cannot be
guided evenly and safely if the base can slip or shake.
•
This diamond core drill cannot be used for overhead drilling unless special water control
equipment is used.
WARNING: Hazardous situation due to broken parts: Always check core bits before using. Deformed or
damaged drill core bits must not be used;
WARNING: Use of non-recommended cutting tools can lead to injuries due to the loss of control. Only
use drill core bits designed for this machine only. Follow the minimum and maximum diameter given on
the specifications page and do not exceed the length of the core bits beyond the maximum allowed by
the drill stand. (This is usually 24" or 750mm)
WARNING: Incorrect clamping and positioning of the drill core bit may lead to dangerous situations
by broken and ejected parts of the drill core bit. Core bits must be assembled correctly. Follow the
instructions below under "Fastening the Core Bit"
WARNING: It is necessary to always wear suitable personal protective equipment, including:
•
Hearing protection, to reduce the risk of induced hearing loss,
•
Gloves, when handling core bits or rough materials, to reduce injuries by sharp edges,
•
Safety glasses, to prevent injuries by flying particles,
•
Non-slipping footwear, to prevent injuries caused by slippery surfaces;
WARNING: A wrongly assembled machine may cause a hazardous situation. Follow the instructions
provided with the drill stand on how to fix the machine into the stand and fixing to the material to be
drilled; See also the instructions below under "Mounting to a Drilling Stand"
INTRODUCTION
This machine is for the intended purpose of diamond core drilling of concrete, masonry, stone and similar
materials. It must always be mounted on a drilling stand. This machine is for professional use only and only
trained personnel may operate this machine.
All other uses which are not for the intended purpose are prohibited.
It is equipped with a water feed system which is required for the diamond core drilling process. A PRCD
interrupter (portable residual current device) which must be used at
all times.
It is equipped with a three or a four speed mechanical gearbox for
different core drill size ranges and features a mechanical safety
clutch.
The motor has electronics for soft start, overload protection and
thermal (overheating) protection. There is a overload warning to
alert the operator of load and overload conditions.
The machine is equipped with spirit levels which aid in aligning the tool. Use the Tubular Level for horizontal
aligning. Use the Bull's Eye Level for vertical aligning.
