1.8 Safety measures during operation
CAUTION!
Danger due to inhaling dust and mist that is hazardous to health.
Dependent on the material which need to be processed and the used auxiliaries dusts
and mist may be caused which might impair you health.
Ensure that the harmful dust and mist generated are safely sucked off at the point of
origin and routed away from the working area or filtered. To do so, use a suitable
extraction unit.
CAUTION!
Risk of fire and explosion by using flammable materials or cooling lubricants.
Before processing inflammable materials (e.g. aluminium, magnesium) or using
inflammable auxiliary materials (e.g. spirit) it is necessary to take additional preventive
measures in order to safely avoid health risks.
1.9 Safety devices
Use the geared drill only with properly functioning safety devices.

designed to reduce the risks of workpieces being ejected or parts of tools or workpieces
breaking off, they cannot eliminate these risks completely. Always work carefully and
observe the limits of the machining process.
