4. Instrucțiuni de utilizare

Follow these steps for safe and effective operation of your electromagnetic core drill.

4.1 Securing the Drill

1. Position the magnetic base on a clean, flat ferrous surface.
2. Activate the magnet using the designated switch. Ensure the magnetic base has a high holding power before proceeding. The drill is designed for working on vertical surfaces and overhead due to its strong magnet.
3. Attach the safety strap to a secure anchor point and to the drill's handle for added security, especially when working in elevated positions.

4.2 Procedura de foraj

2. Ensure the chip protection guard is in place. This guard can be fixed without tools and protects the user from metal shavings and tool contact.
3. Start the motor. The protective circuit will only allow the motor to start if the magnet is properly activated.
4. Slowly feed the drill bit into the workpiece using the feed handle. Apply steady, even pressure.
5. Monitor the coolant flow from the integrated container to ensure continuous cooling of the drill bit.
6. Once drilling is complete, retract the drill bit, switch off the motor, and then deactivate the magnetic base.
