Setting the height of the protective hood
The protective hood
14
protects you against projectile chips. Before you start drilling,
it must be set in such a way that the point where you intend to drill is closed off as
much as possible.
The protective hood is not a substitute for wearing suitable protective clothing
such as protective goggles
.
1. Switch the drill off (push the red off switch
O
31
) and pull the mains plug out of
the socket.
2. Loosen the lateral wing screws on the protective hood slightly (see
Fig. G
).
3. Set the height of the bottom part of the protective hood to the correct height and
tighten the two lateral wing screws again.
Clamping the workpiece in the vice
WARNING!
Risk of injury!
Improper handling may result in severe injury.
− Never attempt to hold the workpiece with your hands.
− Always clamp the workpiece in the enclosed vice.
− If the workpiece cannot be clamped in the vice, it is too large and must not
be processed with this drill.
1. Screw the vice
19
into an open position and insert the workpiece.
2. Clamp the tool in place.
3. Place the vice on the drilling table
12
(see
Fig. I
).
4. Use the fixing screws, washers, spring washers and nuts
20
to secure the vice
diagonally on the drilling table.
5. Only hand tighten the nuts so that you are still able to slide the vice with the
workpiece clamped in place on the drilling table and to position it precisely. It will
also self-centre while drilling.
Adjusting the drilling table
There must always be sufficient space between the top edge of the workpiece and
the tip of the drill bit.
− Switch the drill off (push the red off switch
O
31
) and pull the mains plug out of
the socket.
