Software notes	As a fully manual benchtop drilling machine without digital integration, the unit requires no operating software, firmware, or system drivers. Power input is handled directly through onboard analog controls, allowing operators to adjust rotational speed via a dedicated potentiometer knob on the front housing. The tool functions completely offline, eliminating any reliance on external computers, mobile devices, or network connectivity. System maintenance is strictly mechanical, requiring zero software configuration or digital setup prior to operation.	As a traditional, entirely analog machine, it does not require any management software for its operation. The workflow is completely manual and controlled via physical switches and levers directly on the unit. There is absolutely no dependency on cloud services or network connectivity.
