A control method for using a core drilling system is disclosed. In an embodiment the method includes detecting a predetermined drilling situation on the basis of the attainment of a predetermined threshold value for at least one predetermined corresponding drilling parameter and ending the core drilling operation by selecting a reverse-travel mode for removing the drilling tool from the borehole if the advancing device does not reach a predetermined threshold value for a predetermined corresponding distance value in a direction and the core drilling machine does not reach a predetermined threshold value for at least one predetermined corresponding drilling parameter or continuing the core drilling operation by selecting a predetermined operating mode if the advancing device reaches a predetermined threshold value for a predetermined corresponding distance value in a direction and the core drilling machine reaches a predetermined threshold value for at least one predetermined corresponding drilling parameter.

A method for operating a machine tool that includes an electric motor for driving a drilling tool and an open- and closed-loop controller for open- and closed loop control of the motor power. The method includes: operating the machine tool in a tapping mode at a first rotational speed value, where the first rotational speed value is lower than a predetermined idling speed value of the electric motor; detecting a predetermined first threshold value for the motor current; reducing the motor current to a predetermined second threshold value when the first threshold value is exceeded; operating the machine tool at a second rotational speed value, where the second rotational speed value is lower than the first rotational speed value; operating the electric motor at a predetermined motor current value; and operating the controller for closed loop control of the motor power via the motor current with an oscillating action.
