Proper use
The machine is intended for drilling into concrete and

with diamond core bits for wet drilling and a suitable
water supply. DS 180 can also be used for dry drill-
ing in masonry and other building materials with the
dry drilling kit.
The vacuum pump is intended for the fixation of drill-
stands DS Compact and DS Comfort. The pump is
only designed for sucking in air, and no other gases
or fluids.
For damage caused by usage other then intended,
the user is responsible.
Before use
When drilling through walls or floors, make abso-
lutely sure that there are no obstacles in the adjoin-
ing rooms and cordon off the building site. Prevent
the drilling core from falling.
Always use the correct supply voltage: The power
supply voltage must match the information quoted on
the tool identification plate.
