Observe the following safety precautions to avoid injuring
yourself and/or others:
► Operate the machine only with the protective equipment
stipulated in these operating instructions (see section
Personal protective equipment).
► Do not wear protective gloves when the machine is running.
A glove can be caught by the drilling machine and torn off
the hand. Risk of losing one or more ngers.
► Remove loose jewellery before beginning work. Wear a hair
net if you have long hair.
► Always switch off the machine before changing tools,
performing maintenance or cleaning. Wait until the machine
has come to a complete standstill.
► Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
changing tools, cleaning or performing maintenance, in
order to avoid unintentional starting of the machine.
► Do not put your hand into the machine while it is in
operation. Remove shavings only when the machine is at a
standstill. Wear protective gloves when removing swarf.
► When working on scaffolding, the operator must be secured
with a safety belt as the machine can oscillate dangerously
in the event of interruption to the power supply.
► Check for secure clamping of the electromagnets on the
substrate before every use (see section Preparing).
► Secure the machine with the safety chain supplied when
working from an inclined or vertical position or during
overhead work. The machine could fall down if the magnet is
loosened or the power fails.
► Check that the tool is tightened securely before using (see
section Inserting the tool).
► Do not allow the connecting cable to hang over edges
(danger of tripping).

data (voltage and frequency) on the rating plate with those
of your mains power supply. The data must correspond in
order to avoid damage to the machine.
► Always carry the machine at the handle, not by the
connecting lead.
► Always pull the mains lead out of the plug socket at the plug,
not at the mains lead.
► Do not pinch the connecting lead.
► Do not expose the connecting lead to heat or chemical
liquids.
► Do not pull the connecting lead across sharp edges or hot
surfaces.
► Lay the connecting lead in such a way that it cannot be
caught and wound up in the rotating part of the machine.

returns after a power failure ("restarting protection"), the machine
must be switched on at the ON/OFF switch again.

■ Magnet indicator is lit GR EEN:
The magnet's clamping force satises the minimum
requirements. Machining can be carried out.
■ Magnet indicator is lit R ED :
Insufcient magnet clamping force. Machining must not be
carried out with the machine. This can be the case in the event
of insufcient material thickness, uneven surface or due to
paint, scale or zinc coatings.

The magnet clamping force is dependent on the condition of the
substrate. The clamping force is signicantly reduced by paint,
zinc and scale coatings and rust.
The substrate must satisfy the following preconditions in order
that a sufcient magnet clamping force can be achieved:
■ The substrate must be magnetic.
■ The clamping surface and the magnetic foot (13) must be
clean and grease-free.
■ The clamping surface must be completely smooth and level.
NOTE
► Clean the substrate and the magnetic foot (13) of the
machine before use.
► Remove any unevenness and loose rust from the substrate.
► CS Unitec offers special holding devices in its range of
accessories.
The best clamping effect is obtained on low-carbon steel substrate
with a thickness of at least 3/4" (20 mm).

M AB 5 2 5
St e e l o f l o w t h i c k n e s s
When drilling in steel of low thickness, an additional steel plate
(minimum dimensions 4" x 7-7/8" x 3/4" [100 x 200 x 20 mm])
must be placed under the workpiece. Secure the steel plate to
prevent it from falling.
NF m e t a l s o r w o r k p i e c e s w i t h a n u n e v e n s u r f a c e
A special holding device must be used when drilling in NF metals

Gear stage 2: Load speed 580 rpm
ENGLISH
Se t t i n g t h e s p e e d
In addition to the mechanical gearbox, the machine also has
full-wave control electronics with which the speed can be innitely
varied.
Gear stage 1: 70 - 280 rpm
Gear stage 2: 180 - 580 rpm
CAUTION
► Switch over the gear stages only with the machine at
standstill.
To select the desired gear stage, set selector lever (5) to
stage 1 or 2 with the machine switched off.
NOTE
► Select the speed range according to the material and drilling
diameter.
First set the appropriate gear stage, then adapt the speed
using the electronic speed control (7).
NOTE
► If possible, always select a setting with low gear stage and
high motor speed. The motor is thus set to high torque and
protected against overheating under heavy load.

In order to protect the tool, the maximum torque of the machine
can be set using the controller (32).
When the maximum set torque is reached, the machine switches
off. After the cut-out, the machine must be switched off and then
on again at the ON/OFF switch (21).
CAUTION
► Do not use this function to switch off the machine when
cutting threads in pocket holes.

Proceed as follows when drilling with twist drills:
Push twist drills with MK taper from below into the morse
taper (3) of the machine.
Push twist drills with straight shank into the drill chuck after
tting the drill chuck (H).
Position the machine at the working location, align it and
switch on the magnetic clamps.
Select the appropriate speed and switch on the machine.

NOTE
Observe the following instructions when drilling with twist drills:
► Under high pressure, the drill can glow out and the machine
can be overloaded.
► When working overhead, use the high-performance grease
spray ZHS 400. Spray the drill with grease spray before
drilling. Repeat the procedure when drilling deep holes.
► Pay attention to a regular chip discharge. With larger drilling
depths, break the chip.

Proceed as follows when drilling with core drills:
Install the quick-change drill chuck system (A) and connect
up the cooling lubricant system.
Install the appropriate ejector pin in the core drill and insert
the core drill into the quick-change drill chuck system (A).
Position the machine at the working location, align it and
switch on the magnetic clamps.
Select the appropriate speed and switch on the machine.
NOTE
Observe the following instructions when drilling with core drills:
► Drilling with core drills requires no great effort. The drilling
process is not accelerated by higher pressure. The drill
wears faster and the machine can be overloaded.
► Use the cooling lubricant system installed on the machine
with high-performance cutting oil from CS Unitec.
► The cooling lubricant system cannot be used when working
overhead. In this case use the high-performance grease
spray ZHS 400. Spray the drill on the inside and outside
before drilling. Repeat this procedure when drilling deeper
holes.
► Pay attention to a regular chip discharge. With larger drilling
depths, break the chip.

The machine is equipped with a reversible direction of rotation
and can also be used for cutting threads.
Proceed as follows for cutting threads:
Drill the hole for the thread.
Switch off the machine and select the lowest gear stage and
speed.
Set the direction of rotation to clockwise (right = R) at switch
(23).
Chuck the thread tap in the machine using the appropriate
drill tap adapter.
Switch on the machine and set the thread tap onto the drilled
hole.
Guide the machine slide down at hand lever (11) without
exerting pressure until the desired thread length has been
cut.
Switch off the machine and set the direction of rotation to
anti-clockwise (left = L) at switch (23).
Switch on the machine again and allow the thread tap to
come completely out of the workpiece. Then guide the
machine slide upwards at hand lever (11) to avoid damaging
the start of the thread.

Thanks to its wide range of operating speeds, the machine can
also be used for reaming or counter-sinking.
CAUTION
► Observe the limits of the tools to be used for reaming and
counter-sinking given in the technical data.
