Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimise the risk of injury we urge that our clients
take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation instruc-
tions carefully and make sure you have understood its content.
Keep these operation instructions safe.
Safety instructions
•If possible, only use the hole cutter in stationary machines, e.g., on upright drilling machines.
•Keep your work area tidy and well lit. Untidy and poorly lit work areas increase the risk of acci-
dents.
•Only operate with a suitable drill bit.
•Wear appropriate protective equipment, especially safety goggles, during use.
•Keep your hands away from the moving parts and the blades! Risk of injury!
•Make sure that the workpiece is firmly clamped. Loosening of the workpiece by the hole cutter
can cause damage to property and personal injury.
•Before each use, check the blades of the hole cutter for damage, wear, and correct attachment.
Do not use the cutter if any parts are damaged or loose.
•Only use the hole cutter for its intended purpose. Improper use can result in damage to property
and personal injury.
•Do not use the hole cutter without a protection cowl.
•Always operate the hole cutter with an appropriate pressure. Excessive cutting pressure can
damage the cutter bar.
Attaching the knives to the hole cutter
Adjust the cutting knife holders with the supplied hexagonal wrench so that the cutting knives have the
desired dimension. The inside edge of the holders should match the corresponding scale on the arm.
It is important that the alignment of the cutting knives is correct.

Operation
1. When the knives are correctly adjusted and the holders perfectly secured, push the spindle
through the hole in the protection cowl.
2. Slide the pressure spring onto the protruding spindle.
3. Screw the wing nut onto the threaded end of the spindle as shown so that the assembly has a
tight fit.
4. Attach the assembly to a suitable variable speed hand drill and ensure that the spindle is
properly secured. Select a speed according to the “Cutting speed” table.
5. Approach the complete assembly very carefully to the workpiece, switch on, and let the pilot
drill start working.

6. The protection cowl comes into contact with the workpiece quickly, so make sure that it is
square. Push the spindle in further, but do not force it. Let the cutters come into contact with the
workpiece very gently.
Caution! If the cutters get caught, the tool could be torn out of your grip.
Note! The cutting depth can be adjusted via the function on the hand drill.

Information on the cutting process
Please note that it is possible to cut material up to a thickness of 34 mm. However, this could cause
damage to the edge of the hole in the material to be cut, as the holders of the cutting blade would create
score marks on the surface. It is therefore preferable to limit the cutting thickness to 30 mm.
If it is possible to cut from both sides of the workpiece, the maximum thickness that can be cut is 68 mm
(or 60 mm if scoring of the workpiece is not a problem). To do this, first cut from one side as described
and then use an 8 mm drill. Drill the pilot hole through the remaining thickness and then very carefully
cut out from the back of the workpiece. Make sure that the pilot drill of the cutter almost enters the
previously drilled pilot hole.
