11. DISCONNECT TOOLS. Before servicing; when changing accessories
such as cutters, etc.
12. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Never use blunt Cutters/ Drills.
13. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check
for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts mounting, and any other conditions that may affect operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.

For more information please call +49 6203-4039-0 or send a mail to mail@karnasch.tools.
24. ENSURE SAFE OPERATION THROUGH CORRECT HANDLING. Secure
safe operation through correct handling by observing the instruc-
tions described herein. Do not employ accessories other than those
specified herein; otherwise, a hazardous condition may be created.
Never allow a power tool to be used by persons not familiar with
correct handling (such as children) or those who cannot handle the
tool correctly.
25. CONFIRM THAT NO ITEMS SUCH AS AN ELECTRIC CABLE OR
CONDUIT ARE BURIED INSIDE. In places where live wiring may be
hidden behind a wall, floor, ceiling, etc. do not hold or contact any
metal parts of the tool. In such cases metal parts could become
electrically live and present a serious shock hazard.
26. KEEP THE RIGHT PARTS IN THE RIGHT POSITIONS. Do not remove
covers and screws which have been factory-mounted. They perform
important retrospective roles. Keep them in the right positions.
27. SHOULD THE PLASTIC HOUSING OR HANDLE OF A POWER TOOL BE
CRACKED OR DAMAGED, DO NOT USE IT. Since cracked or deformed
parts may lead to an operator receiving an electric shock, do not use
such a power tool. Immediately have it repaired.
28. SECURELY MOUNT ACCESSORIES AND BLADES TO THE TOOL MAIN
BODY. Extra care must be taken when using tools on elevated locati-
on (such as a roof, ladder, scaffold or the like) to prevent injury to
someone on a lower level in the event of a dropping tool and / or an
accessory. Secure unit with safety chain/carabina.
29. ALWAYS KEEP THE MOTOR AIR VENT FULLY OPENED. A constantly
open motor air vent is necessary to allow air to come in and out for
cooling the motor. Do not allow it to become clogged up, even if the
dust is blown through it.
30. OPERATE POWER TOOLS AT THE RATED VOLTAGE. Operate power
tools at voltages specified on their nameplates.
31. NEVER TOUCH THE MOVING PARTS. Never touch the moving parts
such as bits, cutters, drills, taps, etc.
32. STOP OPERATION IMMEDIATELY IF ANY ABNORMALITY IS
DETECTED. Should a power tool be detected as out of order or
should other abnormalities be observed during operation, stop using
the tool immediately.
33. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF.
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
34. CAREFULLY HANDLE POWER TOOLS. Should a power tool be drop-
ped or struck against hard materials inadvertently, it may be defor-
med, cracked, or damaged.
35. DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT. Solvents such as
gasoline, thinners, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may
damage and crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with solvents.
Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy
water.
36. REPAIRS TO MACHINE are to be carried out by qualified agent and
genuine spare parts are always to be used.
37. WARNING: Under no circumstances try to remove turnings or swarf
from the cutter when machine is in operation. NEVER introduce any
body parts to moving parts of the machine, when it is switched on.
This document is issued for general information and instruction and
as such does not constitute a specification of the equipment. Only
use faultless and sharp drilling tools and avoid that the machine
stops due to overload.
38. ATTENTION: When fitting drills or cutter arbors into morse taper
drive shafts, ensure morse taper and cone are free of grease and
dirt.
39. REMOVING MORSE TAPER TOOLS FROM MACHINE DRIVE SHAFT.
Always ensure power is switched off or unplug mains cable. Put the
drill drift in the opening of the gearbox collar. If you cannot insert the
drill drift through the work spindle, turn the work spindle slightly.
Remove the tool from the work spindle by a slight impact on the drill
drift.
