2.10 Emissions The generation of noise emitted by the drilling machine is lower than 80 dB(A). If the drilling is installed in an area where various machines are in operation, the noise exposure (immission) on the operator of the drilling machine at the working place may exceed 80 dB(A). INFORMATION This numerical value was measured on a new machine under the operating conditions specified by the manufacturer.
Store packed and unpacked parts only under the intended environmental conditions. Follow the instructions and information on the transport box. Consult Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH if the machine and accessories are stored for more than three months or are stored under different environmental conditions than those spec- ified here .

Drill chuck Mounting Morse taper and drill chuck A friction-locking connector holds and centres the drill chuck in the B16 holding fixture. Check and clean the conical seat at the drill spindle and on drill chuck. Push the drill chuck with a firm jerk onto the B16 receptacle. The drill chuck with MT taper is secured through a form-fit union (driver) against twisting in the drilling spindle.
4.5.2 Dismounting the quick action drill chuck WARNING! Only disassemble the drill chuck if the drilling machine is disconnected from the electrical supply. Disconnect the machine from the electrical supply. The cone connection can be separated with a plastic or a rubber hammer. The drill chuck and the taper mandrel are loosened from the drill spindle by means of a drill drift.
Before starting work Before starting work, select the desired speed. It is depending on the used drilling diameter and on the material. WARNING! For drilling jobs, it is necessary to clamp the workpiece firmly to prevent the bit catching on the pieces. A machine vice or clamping claws is a suitable clamping device. Put a wooden or plastic board beneath the workpiece to avoid drilling through to the work table, vice, etc.

Inspection and maintenance The type and level of wear depends to a large extent on the individual usage and operating conditions. Any indicated intervals therefore are only valid for the corresponding approved con- ditions. Interval Where? What? How? Start of shift After each ...
Page 35
Interval Where? What? How? Any unusual rattling noises can be eliminated by regreasing. The sleeve (1) moves downwards or upwards with the toothed spindle (2) in the fixed driven sleeve (3) during drill feed. The noises are caused by the necessary clearance between the two toothings of the sleeve and spindle.
If the repairs are carried out by qualified technical personnel, they must follow the indications given in these operating instructions. Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH accepts no liability nor does it guarantee against damage and operating malfunctions resulting from failure to observe these operating instructions.
