You have chosen Marcrist for your diamond drilling system. We thank you for your choice and
confidence!

Marcrist has the sole ambition to lead in diamond technology and quality. The Result is outstanding
quality for the professional tradesman.

Marcrist is accepted worldwide as a technology leader in diamonds. Marcrist diamond tools are
used by professional tradesmen who value performance, safety and the lowest possible drilling costs.

The best diamond drilling machine is only as good as the cores which are being used. The machine
cannot drill if the cores don’t drill!

When choosing diamond cores always consider the cost per hole rather than just the lowest
purchase price.

A better core may cost a little more but it will invariably last much longer (up to 20 times) and drills
at least twice as fast and does not damage the machine!

Because of this, better cores result in costing you between 10–20 times less than cheap cores.

With every Marcrist 850X core purchased you receive a free service voucher. Collect vouchers
and, together with the machine or drill stand needing service and your proof of purchase, hand
them to your Marcrist distributor. Your distributor will send the machine and vouchers to Marcrist.
All you have to do is to pay the postage.

If the machine or drill stand was beyond repair, Marcrist would, in return for the vouchers, even
give you a replacement machine or drill stand, completely free!

The cost of the postage to return the machine or drill stand to you is also covered with the vouchers.
If a machine or drill stand needing service and repair is returned without vouchers, all work and

postage will be chargeable at the industry standard rate for power tool repairs.
If you have insufficient vouchers, the repair costs will be reduced as a % of your vouchers. i.e.

DDM2 with 5 vouchers would equal 50% off the cost of repairs.
This guarantee is offered as an extra benefit and is in addition to the consumer’s statutory rights.
*With the free service vouchers, Marcrist will, within 5 years from the date of purchase, carry out

the service completely free at no charge. All costs for each service and for any parts are covered
by the vouchers!

**For your safety the machines & drill stands must be serviced every time you have collected the
appropriate amount of vouchers (meaning you will have very extensively used the machine) or, at
18 month intervals. The guarantee may, at the sole discretion of Marcrist, become null and void,
if the machine or drill stand is not serviced every appropriate number of cores or within 18
months (whichever is the soonest).

including all parts and labour:

- Read all safety warnings designated by the symbol and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.

aa))

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

bb))

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.

cc))

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions

can cause you to lose control.

22)) EElleeccttrriiccaall ssaaffeettyy
aa))

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

bb))

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.

cc))

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.

dd))

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

ee))

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for

outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

ff))

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.

33)) PPeerrssoonnaall SSaaffeettyy
aa))

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.

bb))

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
