2.9 Emissions
The noise level emission of the bench drill and upright drill is below 76 dB(A). If the bench drill and upright drill is installed in an area where various machines are in operation, the acoustic influence (immission) on the operator of the bench drill and upright drill may exceed 85 dB(A).
INFORMATION
This numeric value had been measured on a new machine under conventional operating condi­tions. Depending on the age or wear of the machine, the noise behavior of the machine might change.
Furthermore, the extent of the noise emission is also depending on manufacturing influence factors, such as speed, material and clamping conditions.

Unless the degree of noise emission and the degree of noise disturbance are depending on one another it is not possible to use it in order to reliably determine if it is necessary to take further preventive measures or not.
The following factors influence the actual degree of the noise disturbance of the operator:
Characteristics of the working chamber, e.g. size or damping behavior,
Other noise sources, e.g. the number of machines,
Other processes proceeding nearby and the period during which the operator is exposed to the noise.
Furthermore, the admissible pollution level may be different from one country to another due to the national regulations. This information regarding the noise emission should allow the operator of the machine to per­form a better evaluation of the endangerments and risks.
CAUTION! The machine operator has to wear an appropriate ear protection depe nding on the overall
stress caused by noise and on the basic limit values. We generally recommend using a sound and ear protectio n.

3.6 First use
WARNING! Risk by using improper workpiece clamping materials or by operating the machine with
inadmissible speed. Only use the clamping materials (e.g. drill chuck) which had been delivered together with
the machine or as optional equipment offered by OPTIMUM. Use the working clamping materials only in the provided admissible speed range. Workpiece clamping materials must only be modified according to the recommendations
of OPTIMUM or of the clamping material manufacturer.
WARNING! Staff and equipment may be endanged if the bench drill and upright drill is first used by
unexpert staff. We do not take responsibility for damage caused by incorrect commissioning.
 „Qualification of employees“ on page 9
Power supply
OPTIMUM
MASCHINEN - GERMANY
Connect the electrical feeds.Check the fuse protection (fuse) of your electrical supply according to the technical specifica-
tions for the total connected load of the bench drill and upright drill.
ATTENTION! For 230V machines
correctly. Most of the defects on motors are resulting from wrong connections. For instance, if a
motor phase is not correctly clamped or connected to the neutral conductor (N) This may cause:
That the motor is becoming hot very rapidly
Increased motor noises.
The motor has no power.
ATTENTION! Make sure that the direction of rotation of the drive motor is correct. If the rotational
direction switch is switched to the position to perform clockwise rotations (R) the drill spindle needs to rotate clockwise. If necessary, exchange two phase connections. If your connector plug is equipped with a phase inverter, this is done by turning it by 180°.
If the machine is wrongly connected the warrantee will become null and void.
: Imperatively make sure that all 3 phases (L1, L2, L3) are connected
.

ATTENTION! Failure of the pump in the event of a dry run. The pump is lubricated by the cooling agent. Do not start up the pump without cooling
agent.
CAUTION! Danger of injury due to brushes getting caught or pulled in.
Use a spray gun or a washing bottle for cooling.
INFORMATION
Use a water-soluble and non-polluant drilling emulsion which can be obtained from authorized distributors.
Make sure that the cooling agent is being collected. Respect the environment when disposing any lubricants and cooling agents. Follow the manufacturer’s disposal instructions.

Operation
4.11 Before starting the working process
Before you start working, select the required speed. It is depending on the drilling diameter and on the material used.
 „Speed tab le B24H“ on page 40,  „Speed table B28H - B28HB“ on page 40
WARNING! For drilling jobs, it is necessary to clamp the workpiece firmly to prevent the bit catching
on the pieces. Example of suitable clamping devices include a machine vice or clamping jaws.
Put a wooden or plastic board beneath the workpiece to avoid drilling through to the work table, vice, etc.
Use the drill depth stop when you want to have several bore holes with the same depth. When working with wood, make sure to use an adequate dust extraction unit, as sawdust can
constitute a health hazard. Also use a suitable protective mask for any work that generates dust.
4.12 During the working process
OPTIMUM
MASCHINEN - GERMANY
The spindle feed is being performed by the star grip. Make sure that the feed is being at a regu­lar pace and not to fast.
The reset of the spindle is being performed by a track recoil spring.
WARNING! Danger of clothing / or long hair getting caught.
Make sure to wear a well-fitting work suit during drilling work.
Do not use gloves.
If necessary, wear a hairnet.
CAUTION! Danger of bumps by the levers on the star grip.
Do not release the star grip when repositioning the drill spindle sleeve.
CAUTION! Danger of crushing! Do not place your hand between the drill head and the spindle
sleeve.
The smaller the bit, the more likely it is to break. In the case of deep drilling, remove the bit from time to time to remove drilling chips from the
bore hole. A few drops of oil will reduce friction and prolong the service life of the bit.

5.3 Examples to calculatory determine the required speed for your drilling machine
The necessary speed is depending on the diameter of the drill bit, on the material which is being machined as well as on the cutting material of the drill bit.
Material which needs to be drilled: St37 Cutting material (drill bit): HSS spiral bit Set point of the cutting speed [
v
] according to the table: 40 meters per minute
c
Diameter [d] of your drill bit: 30 mm = 0.03 m [meters] Selected infeed [f] according to the table: about 0.35 mm/rev
Speed
Set a speed on your drilling machine which is less than the determined speed.
INFORMATION
In order to facilitate the production of larger drill holes they need to be pre-drilled. This way, you reduce the cutting forces and improve the guiding of the drill bit.
The pre-drilling diameter is depending on the length of the chisel edge. The chisel edge does not cut, but it squeezes the material. The chisel edge is positioned at an angle of 55° to the major cutting edge.
As a general rule of thumb it applies: The pre-drilling diameter is depending on the length of the chisel edge.
Recommended working steps for a drilling diameter of 30 mm
Example: 1st working step: Pre-drilling with Ø 5 mm (0.2"). 2nd working step: Pre-drilling with Ø 15 mm (0.6"). 3rd working step: Drilling with Ø 30 mm (1.2").

WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. A DILIGENT EFFORT HAS BEEN MADE TO PROVIDE PRODUCT INFORMATION AND ILLUSTRATE THE PRODUCTS IN THIS LITERATURE ACCURATELY; HOWEVER, SUCH INFORMATION AND ILLUSTRATIONS ARE FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF IDENTIFICATION, AND DO NOT EXPRESS OR IMPLY A WARRANTY THAT THE PRODUCTS ARE MERCHANTABLE, OR FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR THAT THE PRODUCTS WILL NECESSARILY CONFORM TO THE ILLUSTRATIONS OR DESCRIPTIONS. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, NO WARRANTY OR AFFIRMATION OF FACT, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, OTHER THAN AS STATED IN THE "LIMITED WARRANTY" ABOVE IS MADE OR AUTHORIZED BY OPTIMUM.
Technical Advice and Recommendations, Disclaimer. Notwithstanding any past practice or dealings or trade custom, sales shall no t include the furnishing of technical advice or assistance or system design. OPTIMUM assumes no obligations or liability on account of any unauthorized recommendations, opinions or advice as to the choice, installation or use of products.
Product Suitability. Many jurisdictions have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purpose s, which may var y from those in neighboring areas. While attempts are made to assure that OPTIMUM products comply with such codes, OPTIMUM cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, review the product applications, and all applicable nat ional and local codes and regulations, and be su re that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.
Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some jurisdictions do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of implied merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise disclaimed.
Prompt Disposition. A good faith effort will be made for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any product which proves to be defective within limited warranty. For any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, first write or call dealer from whom the product was purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve satisfactorily, write to OPTIMUM at address below, giving dealer's name, address, date, and number of dealer's invoice, and describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged in transit to you, file claim with carrier.
