under "Intended use."
The TRUMPF Nibbler TruTool N 200 is an electrically powered
hand-held device designed for the following applications:
■Slitting plate-shaped workpieces made of a punchable mate-
rial such as steel, aluminum, non-ferrous heavy metals and
plastic.
■Slitting pipes and machining corrugated sheets.
■Nibbling straight or curved exterior and interior cutouts.
■Nibbling along scribed lines or templates.
E832en_00 Description 5
WARNING

Notes
■Because of the hollow round punch, the nibbler can be rota-
ted at any position such that processing can continue in any
direction.
■The nibbling process produces cutting edges free of deforma-
tions.
The TRUMPF TruTool PN 200 resp. TruTool PN 201 profiling
nibbler is an electrically powered hand-held device for the follow-
ing applications:
■For slitting sectional sheets such as trapezoidal sheet, corru-
gated sheet, boxed sheet, offset profiled strips.
■Slitting plate-shaped workpieces made of a punchable mate-
rial such as steel, aluminum, non-ferrous heavy metals and
plastic.
■Nibbling straight or curved exterior and interior cutouts.
■For nibbling from scribed lines.
Note
The nibbling process produces cutting edges free of deforma-
tions.

2.4 Noise and vibration information
Noise emission value may be exceeded.
ØWear hearing protection.
Vibration emission value may be exceeded.
ØSelect tools correctly and replace them promptly when they
show wear.
ØMaintenance may be carried out by trained specialist techni-
cians only.
ØEstablish additional safety precautions for the protection of
the operator against the effects of vibrations (e.g. keeping
hands warm, organizing the work sequences, machining with
normal feed power).
Notes
■The specified vibration emission value was measured in
accordance with a standardized testing procedure and can
be used to compare one electric tool with another.
■The specified vibration emission value can also be applied
for a provisional estimate of the vibration load.
■Times during which either the machine is switched off or run-
ning but not actually in use can considerably reduce the
vibration load during the entire working period.
■Times during which the machine works independently and
self-propelled do not have to be calculated.

To make a burr-free cut up to 1 mm thick in the sheet with the
tools TruTool PN 200 and TruTool PN 201, the die P1 can be
used. The lower cutting clearance reduces burr formation.

4. Operation
Risk of injury due to improper handling!
ØMake sure the machine is always in a stable position when
operating it.
ØNever touch the tool while the machine is running.
ØAlways operate the machine away from your body.
ØDo not operate the machine above your head.
Damage to property due to excessively high line voltage!
Motor damage.
ØCheck the power supply voltage. The power supply voltage
must correspond to the information on the nameplate of the
machine.
In order to improve the cutting result and increase the service
life of the punch, coat the cutting track with oil before machining
the workpiece.
4.1 Working with the TruTool N 200 /
TruTool PN 200 / TruTool PN 201
1. Slide the On/Off switch forwards.
2. Once the full speed has been reached: move the machine
toward the workpiece.
3. Process the desired cutting line.
4. If the cutting track ends in the sheet: retract the running
machine a few millimeters in the direction of the already free-
cut cutting track.
Note
Do not place a decelerating machine in the chips. The chips
can be sucked in by the motor.
5. Slide the On/Off switch to the rear.

4.2 Changing the cutting direction
The direction of the cut can be rotated to the right or the left in
45° increments as needed.
■For right-handed/left-handed operation.
■To machine sectional sheets
1. Loosen the index bolt (about 3 revolutions) until no more
resistance can be felt.
2. Pull the tool down slightly and turn it in the desired direction.
There is a detent position every 45° (cutting direction).
3. Push the tool back up and tighten the index bolt.
4. Check: if no air gap can be seen between the housing and
the tool, the tool is mounted correctly.
Carrier is engaged.

14 Nibbling with templates (TruTool N 200) E832en_00

The following requirements must be met when nibbling with tem-
plates:
■The template must be at least 5 mm thick.
■There must be a clearance of 2.5 mm between the contour
of the template and the contour to be nibbled out.
■The nibbler must be guided in such a way that the exterior
cutout of the punch guide (1) always remains up against the
template.
■Observe a minimum radius of 4 mm.
4.4 Producing interior cutouts
ØTruTool N 200:
Produce start bore with at least a 17 mm diameter.

5. Maintenance
Electrical voltage! Risk of fatal injury due to electric shock!
ØRemove the plug from the plug socket before undertaking
any maintenance work on the machine.
ØCheck the plug, cable and machine for damage each time
before using the machine.
ØKeep the machine dry and do not operate it in damp rooms.
ØConnect the fault current (FI) circuit breaker with a maxi-
mum breaking current of 30 mA when using the electric tool
outside.
ØOnly use original TRUMPF accessories.
ØThe connection cable may only be replaced by the manufac-
turer or an authorized dealer.
Risk of injury due to incorrect repair work
Machine does not work properly.
ØMaintenance may be carried out by trained specialist techni-
cians only.
Damage to property caused by blunt tools!
Machine overload.
ØCheck the cutting edge of the punch hourly for wear. A
sharp punch provides good cutting performance and is eas-
ier on the machine. Change the punch in due time.
