Before carrying out maintenance and repair works, always disconnect the machine from
the mains.
1) Maintenance after about 50 drilling passages
Remove the chips from the machine in order not to interfere with the ventilation of
the motor. Check the grill and the drill chuck for tightness. Always tighten up all
screws with the Allen keys.
2) Maintenance after about 10 hours:
In addition to 1):
2.1) if needed, remove resin from the drill and sharpen it.
2.2) clean the guide bars with a cloth.
3) Maintenance after about 250 hours:
In addition to 1) and 2):
3.1) Blow air vents, check the tightness of all screws. Check the tightness of
the gear head. Carbon brushes are designed to work for about 300 hours,
and can be replaced.
4) After the season, it would be good practice to clean the unit, lubricate all moving
parts and keep the drilling machine in a dry place.
