1.2Proper use
WARNING!
In the event of improper use of the upright drill
•there may be a risk to personnel,
•there may be a risk to the machine and other items,
correct functioning of the upright drill may be affected.
The upright drill is designed and manufactured to be used in environments where there is no
potential danger of explosion. The upright drill is designed and manufactured to produce holes
in cold metal or other not health hazardous or non- flammable material by using a rotating cutting tool with several chucking grooves.
If the upright drill is used in any way other than described above, or modified without authorization, then the upright drill- is being used improperly.
We do not take liability for damage caused through improper use.
We would like to stress that any modifications to the construction, or technical or technological
modifications that have not been authorized will also render the warranty null and void.
It is also part of proper use that
the maximum values of the upright drill are complied with,
the operating manual is constantly observed,
inspection and maintenance instructions are observed.
Safety
„Technical Data“ on page 16
WARNING!
Very serious injury.
It is forbidden to make any modifications or alternations to the operating values of the
upright drill! They could endanger employees and cause damage to theupright drill.
1.3Possible dangers caused by the upright drill.
The upright drill is state of the art.
Nevertheless, there is a residual risk as the upright drill operates with
high revolutions,
rotating parts,
electrical voltage and currents.
We have used construction resources an d safety techniques to minim ize the health risk to persons resulting from these hazards.
If the upright drill is used and maintained by employees who are poorly qualified, then there
might be a risk resulting from incorrect operation and unsuitable maintenance of the upright drill.
INFORMATION
Everyone involved in the assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must
be duly qualified,
strictly follow this operating manual.
Due to improper use
there is a risk for the employee,
the machine and further property might be endangered,
the function of the upright drill could be effected.

Safety
Always disconnect the upright drill if cleaning or maintenance work is being carried ou t.
WARNING!
The upright drill may only be used with the safety devices activated.
Disconnect the upright drill immediately whenever you detect a failure in the safety
device or when they are not mounted!
All additional installations carried out by the operator must incorporate the safety
devices prescribed.
This is your responsibility being the operator!

Determine clearly and make a permanent decision in who will be responsible for the different
activities on the machine (operation, maintenance and repair).
Vague and unclear assignment of responsibilities constitute a safety hazard!
Always disconnect the main power of the upright drill. This will prevent it from being used by
unauthorised persons.
1.4.2Authorized Personnel
WARNING!
Incorrect use and maintenance of the upright drill constitute a danger for the staff,

Safety
Avoid unsafe working practice:
Make sure that your work does not endanger anyone.
The instructions of this manual must be observed strictly during assembly, operation, mainte-
nance and repair.
Do not work on the upright drill if your concentration is reduced, for example, because you
are taking medication.
Observe the regulations for the prevention of accidents issued by your association for the
prevention of accidents and safety in the workplace or other inspection authorities.
Inform the inspector of any danger or failure.

1.15Use of lifting equipments
WARNING!
Use of unstable lif ting and load-suspension gear that might break under load can cause
very serious injuries or even death.
Check the lifting and load-suspension gear on
•sufficient load capacity,
•perfect condition.
Observe the regulations for the prevention of accidents issued by your association for
the prevention of occupational accidents and safety in the workplace or other inspection

2.10Emissions
The noise level (emission) of the mill drill machine is below 76 dB(A). If the mill drill machine is
installed in an area where various machines are in operation, the acoustic influence (immission)
on the operator of the mill drill machine 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.

INFORMATION
The mentioned numerical value is an emission level and not necessarily a safe
working level.
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 ord er 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.
Consult OSHA, state and local regulations in order to determine compliance, dangers and risks
to the operator.
CAUTION!
The machine operator has to wear an appropriate ear protection dep ending on the overall
stress caused by noise and on the basic limit values.
We generally recommend using a sound and ear protection.

3.4.1Site requirements
Organize the working space around the upright drill according to the local safety regulations.
INFORMATION
In order to provide for good functionality and high machining accuracy as well as long durability
of the machine the site should fulfill certain criteria.
Observe the following items:
The device must only be installed and operated in dry ventilated places.
Avoid places nearby machines generating chips or dust.
The site has to be vibration-free, i.e. at a distance from presses, planing machines, etc.
The substructure has to be appropriate for upright drill. Also make sure that the load bearing
capacity and the evenness of the floor are appropriate.
The substructure has to be prepared in a way that possibly used coolant cannot penetrate
into the ground.
Protruding parts such as stops, handles, etc. need to be secured by measures provided by
the customer if necessary in order to avoid dangers for persons.
Provide sufficient space for assembly and operating staff as well as for material transport.
Also allow for accessibility for setting and maintenance works.
2014
Make sure that the main power of the drilling machine is freely accessible.
