Separate drilling and chiselling tasks
| Situation | Decision | Result |
|---|---|---|
| A hole in a suitable mineral material | Check the required diameter and depth against the documented drilling capacity | Narrow down the machine and intended drill bit together. |
| Targeted material removal | Check for a chiselling mode and the tool fitting specified for it | Suitability for drilling alone is not treated as approval for chiselling. |
| Working on an edge or in a confined space | Compare machine design, tool length and available working space | The machine and tool can reach the area within their documented operating limits. |
Example: drilling an opening or reshaping an existing edge
For the opening, note the diameter and depth; for reshaping, note the position and the area where material needs to be removed. These two lists may lead to different machines or tools. The specific fitting and permitted operating mode must come from the manufacturer's documentation. More options: Drilling tools & accessories.
