General Information
CRL has designed this machine specifically for use in glass drilling by industry professionals. You must use the
machine only for the designated purposes. We are not responsible for any accident which may be caused by
misuse. As you begin familiarizing yourself with the machine, pay attention to the following details:
• Do not work on porous surfaces. This unit is designed for glossy surfaces, such as glass.
• Never change the speed of the machine when the diamond drill is in contact with the glass.
• Make sure you are feeding a sufficient amount of water while drilling.
• Watch the condition of the glass when drilling to determine correct drill speed.
• Keep speed and water feed constant until the drill bit is completely removed.
• Do not disassemble the machine. This will void your warranty.
