[. . . ] Due to the continuing program of research and development, the specifications herein are subject to change without prior notice. Power supply The machine should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply. [. . . ] Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. Before plugging in the machine, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the ``OFF'' position when released. Change the direction of rotation only after the machine comes to a complete stop. For continuous operation, pull the trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the machine from the locked position, pull the trigger fully, then release it. To start the machine, simply pull the lower part of the switch for clockwise, the upper part for counterclockwise. CAUTION: Always be sure that the machine is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the machine. Drilling in wood When drilling in wood, best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece. Drilling in metal To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an indentation with a centerpunch and hammer at the point to be drilled. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the machine performance and shorten the service life of the machine. Hold the machine firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break through the workpiece. [. . . ] Se till att återföra chucknyckeln till dess ursprungliga position efter att den använts.
