INTENDED USE
The machine is intended for drilling into concrete
and reinforced concrete, when being used in con-

and a suitable water supply. Karat 180 can also be
used for dry drilling in masonry and other build-
ing materials with the dry drilling kit.
The vacuum pump is intended for the fixation of
drillstands Compact and Large. The pump is only
designed for sucking in air, and no other gases or
fluids.
For damage caused by usage other then
intended, the user is responsible.
BEFORE USE
When drilling through walls or floors, make
absolutely sure that there are no obstacles
in the adjoining rooms and cordon off the
building site. Prevent the drilling core from
falling.
Always use the correct supply voltage:
The
power supply voltage must match the informa-
tion quoted on the tool identification plate.
