Stand drilling
• Always use a drilling stand if drilling is to be performed
from a ladder or scaffold.
Handheld drilling in these situations is full of risks, as the risk
of falling is very high if the drill bit jams.
• Make sure that the stand is secured correctly.
• Make sure that the drilling machine is secured correctly in
the stand.
Drilling outdoors
• Always use extension cables that are approved for
outdoor use.
Drilling in ceilings and the like
• Use a water collector to avoid water penetrating into the
machine. The machine must be covered with plastic or the
like in order to prevent water penetrating into the machine,
but do not cover the air intakes and air outlets.
IMPORTANT! The air intake must not be covered.
