Drills for quick change spindles, 10 mm O. D. and 20 mm length shank (Fig. A )
Drills up to 40 mm O. D. can be used ( Fig. B )
3. MACHINE DESCRIPTION
Our boring machines have been manufactured to make holes on wood at a fixed distance of 32 mm (with
maximum accuracy) between each centre.
The head has its fulcrum on the machine table and it can be tilted up to a 90-degree angle. The operator place
the work piece on the working table, does some adjustments by using the pedal control, block the piece using
the clamp units and then start drilling.
The machine consists of:
1. a steel frame structure
2. one head group equipped with its trasmission system
3. clamp group for vertical blocking of the work piece
4. pneumatic system for head positioning and head feed
5. reference stops to obtain the same drilling distance from vertical to horizontal position
6. leaflet for positioning the spindle height, a mechanical counter and the “Spiral System” device ti regula-
regulate the hole depth from 0 mm to 85 mm
2. OPERATIVE NOTES
WOODWORKING MACHINES CAN BE DANGEROUS
1) A safe and correct use can be obtained by carefully and scrupulously following all the instructions con-
tained into this manual.
2) The machine must be used only by qualified users and personnel of age. The responsible for safety must
be sure that users of the machine have read and understood all the information contained into this man-
ual.
3) The personnel for both ordinary and extraordinary maintenance must be well prepared in mechanics and
electricity.
4) Keep off any parts in movement of the machine. Never touch the spindles and/or their respective parts in
movement of the machine.

5. SAFETY PROTECTIONS DEVICES AND ADHESIVE WARNING
− The operator assigned to the machine must be well trained on its correct use, its safety protection devices
and its accessories.
− The machine drilling devices must be correctly blocked and adjusted.
− The whole machine must undergo ordinary and extraordinary maintenance procedures, following the
scheduled timing.
− Before you switch on the machine or start any work session, verify that the working table is free of the
shaving left from the wood previously drilled.
− Before making any operation with the machine, verify that the entire working area is free of persons and of
any obstacles which could be potentially source of danger.
− Verify that the connecting cable to the electrical power supply is safe, well stretched out and not rolled up.
− Do not enter the drilling zone before turning off the machine.
− Do not put any inflammable substances nearby the machine because of risk of explosion and/or fire due to
possible sparks production.
− The operator must pay maximum attention using the pneumatic pedal to work with the machine.
− The operator must think carefully about possible consequences before approaching with his hands the
most dangerous areas of the machine: the drilling zone and the working area of the clamp units.
− The machine must be turned off when not in use.

WARNING SYMBOL: ALL THE OPERATIONS HIGHLIGHTED WITH THIS SYMBOL ARE DANGEROUS
TO THE OPERATOR; PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL IN DOING THESE OPERATIONS.
The main risk is due to moving drills. Our machine is equipped with following protection devices to reduce risks
to the minimum:
A) Emergency push button
It is inserted in the control panel, in the front side of the machine. All the movements of the machine stop im-
mediately when the emergency push button is pushed.
B) Series of stickers and plates
They describe in details all the safety instructions, the correct working procedures and identify the main parts
of the machine. One plate shows the identification and serial number of the machine.
C) Safety clamp (patented)
They are on the surface of the working table or of the already positioned working piece, so that the operator
can not put unintentionally his hands below.
D) Safety protection device
No-way-back coil preserve against accidental start. No-way-back coil preserve against accidental start

7. TECHNICAL DATA
6. INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION DEVICES AND RESIDUAL RISKS
Despite all adopted safety protection devices, following situations may be dangerous:
- fall or throw of wood sliver during working operation
- entangling parts of clothes in moving parts of the machine
- danger of fire
- danger of electrocution
- danger of damage due to noise emission
- danger of damage due to dust emission
To prevent risks during placing, installation, adjustment, use, ordinary and extraordinary maintenance, we
strictly recommend to use the following individual protection devices:
- gloves (for example during machine parts handling)
- anti-crushing and anti-sliding shoes
- glasses or face-shields against chip or wood sliver during working or cleaning operation of the machine
- anti-dust masks
Moreover, the clothes must be suited to avoid danger of:
- catching
- dragging
- crushing
- sliding
- abrasion
- contact lenses are prohibited

8. INTENDED USE
8.1 MATERIALS
The boring system machine has been designed and built to drill the following materials:
- solid wood
- m.d.f.
- panels of shaving wood, laminated wood, ennobled wood, etc.
The maximum panel thickness is 65 mm and its maximum dimensions are those described at chapter 7.
- Other materials, different from the ones described above, can be machined only after the written approval of
the manufacturer. In particular it is not allowed to machine materials having toxic or dangerous substances
for operator’s health and safety, metals or other materials that can modify the correct working of the machine
or cause fire or explosion..
- Any modification is forbidden without the written authorization of the manufacturer.
- It is not allowed to tamper with the safety protection devices.
8.2 IMPROPER USE
Any operation that does not comply with the instructions given herein is to be regarded as improper use.
Moreover:
WE ADVISE YOU NOT TO lay tools against or on the machine for any reason whatsoever during machine
installation, use or maintenance.
WE ADVISE YOU NOT TO get on the machine or on any of its parts.
The manufacturer cannot be considered liable for
any damage caused to people, animals or property
resulting from improper use of the machine.
9. TRANSPORT
The boring machine 35 is packed in a wooden box and/or in cardboard and nylon. It is possible to move it by
means of:
• Forklift
• crane
• transpallet
Weight data are written in chapter 8. Before moving the machine verify that the entire surrounding area is free
of obstacles. In case of stocking, the machine must be kept in dry places, away from rain, snow or humidity.
During all moving operations we recommend to be extremely careful to avoid danger of damage for persons,
things and the machine itself.

Ø 4 mt
11. WORKING AREA
For a correct use of the machine, the following zones must be kept clear.
10. INSTALLATION
10.1 PLACING THE MACHINE
The machine must be placed on a stable plain surface, capable to support the weight of the machine itself;
any possible difference in height must be in conformity with building rules. When the machine has to be
placed on raised plain surface (higher floor) the load-bearing slab must be adequate to the weight of the ma-
chine.
Put the machine in the right place, as requested operative requirements, where it is easy to connect it to
electrical and pneumatic power supply.
Put the machine in a place where there is enough lighting to see every part of the machine itself.
We suggest also to arrange an exhaust fan nearby the machine to clean it periodically.
10.2 LEVELLING
Adjust the levelling feet so that the machine is perfectly leaned on the floor, then align the working table of
the machine by using a spirit level.
Before going on with levelling, tighten the alignment pins into the threaded holes of the bed frame, remove
the protective oil film from planes and every not painted surface, by using petroleum or kerosene only.
Do not use any solvent as gasoline and diesel oil, because they can damage the paint, making it dull, or oxi-
dize other parts.

12. ASSEMBLING AND CHECKING PROCEDURE
The Boring System boring machine is packed in a large wooden box or kit superimpo-
sition.We strongly suggest to apply a careful and correct procedure to transport the
box to the area where the boring machine will be installed.
