General safety precautions

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Work area safety
- Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- People and animals can distract you causing you to lose control of the machine. For this reason, always remain concentrated and focused on the task.
- Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
- Never start to work with the machine before the working area is clear and you have a firm foothold. Look out for any obstacles with unexpected movement. Ensure that no material can become loose and fall, causing injury when operating the machine.
- Always check the rear side of the surface where the drill bit will emerge when drilling right through. Secure and cordon off the area and make sure that no one can be injured or material damaged.
Personal safety

WARNING! There is always a risk of crush injuries when working with products containing moving parts. Wear protective gloves to avoid body injuries.
- Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions under the heading Personal protective equipment.
- Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have drunk alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect your vision, your judgement or your co-ordination.
- Never allow anyone else to use the machine without first ensuring that they have understood the contents of the operator's manual.
- Be careful as clothing, long hair, and jewellery can get caught in moving parts.
- Never work alone, always ensure there is another person close at hand. Apart from being able to receive help to assemble the machine, you can also get help if an accident should occur.
Use and care
- Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, maintenance and service instructions described in this manual. Some maintenance and service measures must be carried out by trained and qualified specialists. See instructions under the heading Maintenance.
- Never use a machine that has been modified in any way from its original specification.
- Keep all parts in good working order and ensure that all fixtures are properly tightened.
Transport and storage
- Store the equipment in a lockable area so that it is out of reach of children and unauthorised persons.

There are three methods for fixing the stand.
• Securing with vacuum plate
• Fixing with expander or anchor
• Fixing with threaded rod, washer and lock nut
Securing with vacuum plate

WARNING! The vacuum plate must never be used for ceiling or wall drilling. Careless or incorrect use can result in serious, even fatal injury.
If the vacuum plate is used, make sure the support surface is not porous and can loosen from the floor or the wall. Make sure that the vacuum pump has sufficient power to secure the vacuum plate.
- Connect the vacuum pump to the quick coupling for vacuum pressure on the base plate.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical device with wheels and a base mount (no text or symbols)- Place the bottom plate in the desired position.
- Switch on the vacuum pump. A minimum pressure of 635 mm Hg (25 inch Hg) must be reached so that the base plate seals tightly against the surface.
Fixing with expander or anchor
IMPORTANT! When drilling roofs, only expander or anchor suitable for surfaces exposed to tensile forces should be used.
Use only expander or anchor which is approved for current application.
DS 150

293 mm (11,5")- Drill a hole for the expander/anchor at a distance of 293 mm (11.5") from the center of the hole.
- Bolt down the base plate. Check carefully that the expander is secured correctly.
- The bottom plate can be adjusted to the surface by using the leveling adjustment screws. Use the feed lever.
DS 250

335 mm (13,2")- Drill a hole for the expander/anchor at a distance of 335 mm (13.2") from the centre of the hole.
- Bolt down the base plate. Check carefully that the expander is secured correctly.
- The bottom plate can be adjusted to the surface by using the leveling adjustment screws. Use the feed lever.
Fixing with threaded rod, washer and lock nut
If the mounting surface is inadequate for drilling in roofs or walls, the base plate can be fixed using a threaded rod, which is mounted on the backside with a washer and lock nut.
Assembly of drill motor
IMPORTANT! Always pull out the plug from the outlet socket before cleaning, maintenance or assembly.
- Always remove the drill bit before the motor is mounted or dismounted.
- Lock the feed housing lock.

The angle indicator can be used for approximate adjustment. If higher precision is required, alternative measuring methods should be used.
Drilling in the ceiling

WARNING! 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.
MAINTENANCE
Stand maintenance


WARNING! Inspection and/or maintenance should be carried out with the motor switched off and the plug disconnected.
The lifetime of your machine can be extended considerably if it is used, cared for and maintained in the proper manner.
Cleaning and lubrication

IMPORTANT! Remove the drill motor.
- It is important that the drill stand is kept clean for functionality to be maintained.
- Clean the stand using a high pressure washer and then wipe dry.
- Lubricate the moving parts on the stand. Apply grease to counteract corrosion on the contact surfaces.
Adjusting the feed housing
If there is play between the column and the feed housing, the play must be adjusted.
- Remove top and bottom plastic carriage covers.
