This will minimize splintering or burring as the drill breaks through the work.
Special maintenance operations must be carried out by skilled personnel. However, we advise contacting DAKE. The term special maintenance also covers resetting of protection/safety equipment and devices. • On a regular basis, blow out any dust that may accumulate inside the motor (frequency depends on environment the machine is in).
