Intended use
WARNING!
If the drilling machine is not used as intended or if the safety directives or the operating
instructions are ignored the liability of the manufacturer for any damages to persons or
objects resulting hereof is excluded and the claim under guarantee is becoming null and
avoid!
The bench drill is designed and manufactured to be used in a non-explosive environment. The
bench drill is designed and manufactured for holes in cold metals or other non flammable mate-
rials or that not constitute a health hazard using a rotating filing-stripping tool that has a number
of grooves for collecting the filings. The drilling machine is equipped with a drill chuck protec-
tion. The drill may only be operated with this chuck guard.
If the bench drill is used in any way other than described above, modified without authorization
of Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH, then the geared drill is being used improperly.
We will not be held liable for any damages resulting from any operation which is not in accord-
ance with the intended use.
We explicitly point out that any construction, technical or process engineering changes that
have not been approved by Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH will render the warranty null
and void
It is also part of intended use that the maximum values for the drilling machine are complied
with and the operating manual is observed.
ATTENTION!
If the bench drill is not used as intended or if the safety directives or the operating
instructions are ignored the liability of the manufacturer for any damages to persons or
objects resulting hereof is excluded and the claim under guarantee is becoming null and
avoid!
1.3
Reasonably foreseeable misuses
Any use other than that specified under "Intended use" or any use beyond that described will be
deemed non-intended use and is not permissible. Any other use has to be discussed with the
manufacturer.
It is only permissible to process metal, cold and non-inflammable materials with the bench drill.
In order to avoid misuse, it is necessary to read and understand the operating instructions
before first commissioning.
Operators must be qualified.
1.3.1
Avoiding misuse
Use of suitable cutting tools.
Adapting the speed setting and feed to the material and workpiece.
Clamp workpieces firmly and free of vibration.
ATTENTION!
The workpiece is always to be fixed by a machine vice, jaw chuck or by another
appropriate clamping tool such as for the clamping claws.
WARNING!
Risk of injury caused by flying workpieces.
Clamp the workpiece in the machine vice. Make sure that the workpiece is firmly clamped in
the machine vice and that the machine vice is firmly clamped onto the drill table.
Use cooling and lubricating agents to increase the durability of the tool and to improve the
surface quality.
