DEC ARATION OF COMP IANCE:
GYS certifies that the G spot DRILL is manufactured in compliance with the directive 89/392/CEE, amended
2006/42/CEE.
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USE
In order to avoid risks of injuries, an person who operates, installs, services or changes accessories, as well as an person
working in the area of this tool, must read and understand the following instructions.
Air supply
• Compressed air can cause serious injuries.
• Alwa s turn off the air suppl and disconnect it before installing, removing or adjusting an accessor on this machine, or
before performing an maintenance on this machine.
• Do not point the jet of compressed air at other people or ourself; keep b standers awa while operating the tool.
• Whiplashing hoses ma cause serious injuries; check carefull the hoses and fittings for leaks and deteriorations.
• Do not fit quick change couplings onto the machine as vibration can cause the coupling to fail.
• Read the instructions for a proper assembl of the tool
• In case swivel connectors are used, secure them with locking pins.
• Operate the tool at the air pressure indicated in order to ensure maximum durabilit of the tool
• Manipulate hoses and fittings carefull . Do not force the hose off the air inlet. Keep air hoses awa from heat sources,
lubricants and sharp materials. Do not use damaged, fra ed or deteriorated air hoses and fittings. Be sure all fittings are
tightl secured.
Personal safety
• Operators and service personnel must be able to ph sicall manage the tool and follow the appropriate instructions.
• Keep bod stance balanced and firm. Vibrations, repetitive motions or uncomfortable positions ma be harmful to our
hands. If discomfort, tingling feeling or pain occurs; stop using an machine and seek medical advice.
• Use protective equipment such as glasses, gloves, safet shoes as well as acoustic protection.
• This machine has not been designed to be used in an explosive atmosphere environment. Do not lubricate tools with
flammable or volatile liquids such as kerosene, diesel or petrol.
• Avoid direct contact with the parts in motion when using the tool, to prevent cuts.
• The splitting of a pneumatic tool casing in use ma cause serious injuries. The smallest debris can cause e e injuries and
lead to blindness.
• Alwa s sta at a suitable distance from the cutters, blades, tools in motion, etc…
Tool use and care
• Do not carr the machine b the hose
• Do not wear watches, ring bracelets or loose clothing when using the tool, and keep long hair awa from moving parts.
• For safet , top performance and maximum durabilit , operate the tool at the recommended air pressure.
• Cutters heat up while in use. Let them cool down before seizing them. Disconnect air suppl before changing the cutters.
• Operate the G spot DRILL with care to prolong its efficienc in time.
• Do not modif the tool or its accessories

AIR SUPP Y
Getting started:
The compressed air network must be perfectl purged and adapted to the tool’s consumption. A filter-lubricator-
regulator unit must be installed at a maximum distance of 10m before the tool (except for tools designed for use
without lubrication). Its regulating pressure must be set at 7.5 bars and the oil flow at about 1 drop ever 30 seconds
for 100L/mn airflow. Warning ! The air consumption of the tool must absolutel be superior to the minimum priming
airflow of the lubricator. A shut-off valve must be installed upstream.
The connection between the filter-lubricator-regulator unit and the tool must be made with a special air suppl flexible
hose made of rubber or PVC, with a maximum length of 10m and a minimum inside diameter of 8 mm. It must be
equipped with a semi-automatic self-closing coupling close to the tool, in order to unplug it easil .
Use:
Exclusivel use accessories in perfect condition and matching the specifications of the tool.
Disconnect the tool from air suppl before changing the cutters. Check that the cutter is perfectl tightened before
using the tool again.
Regularl check the air suppl pipes. In case deteriorations or leaks are noticed, proceed to the repair immediatel .
Broken pipes ma cause serious injuries.
Maintenance:
Ever da , before use, disconnect the tool from the air line and pour a few of suitable oil through the air intake.
Do not use
flammable or volatile liquids such as kerosene, diesel or petrol.
Regularl proceed to check the level of the lubricator, and to bleed the filter and pipes.
Ensure that the air suppl fittings, air pipes and hoses, and accessories are in perfect condition.
Regularl bleed the pipes and the tank of the compressor.
Use onl genuine spare parts to ensure the maintenance of the tool.
GYS will not be liable it the tool is modified and if general safet instructions regarding air tools are not observed.

Setting:
1-
Remove the Swan neck-clamp
2-
Insert the drill and tighten it using the provided wrench
3-
Setting the depth of cut:
a.Appl a pressure on the support jaws (a) with our fingers in order to retract them
b.Adjust the depth of the cutter with the wheel (b) so that the difference (∆) between
the jaws and the extremit of the cutter match the thickness of the material
4-
Re-install the swan neck-clamp
5-
Position the G spot Drill perpendicularl to the material to be removed.
6-
Appl pressure to the push arm to bring the cutter to make contact with the material
7-
Pull the throttle trigger to start cutter rotation
8-
Once the cut is through, release pressure from the push arm, then release the throttle trigger to stop rotation

B-High-quality cutters (Ø 8 / Ø10)
The qualit of the steel sheets on car bod is characterised b their resistance
and hardness. The resistance is measured with the effort required for
bending, tearing, or rupture, and is expressed in MPa. The hardness is
measured b the resistance to wear and abrasion, and is expressed in Vickers
HV. The great majorit of HSS (High Strength Steels) drill bits have similar
hardness than these steels, hence causing issues to drill through high
resistance steels.
The bits delivered with the G spot drill are made of tungsten carbide, which
gives them a hardness superior to the modern steels’, which is 600 to 800 HV.
In addition, a specific coating is added to improve the longevit , hardness up
to 3000 HV, and protect against high temperatures (up to 900°C).
