PRECAUTIONS ON USING TAPPER
1. Attach side handle and secure firmly.
Using only one hand is dangerous. Be sure to
attach the side handle and hold the unit firmly with
both hands. If not held firmly, the reaction force
that develops during tapping will spin the unit
around.
2. Do not wear gloves in operating.
Do not wear gloves made of stuff liable to roll up
such as cotton, wool, cloth or string, etc.
3. Conform the tap to the prepared hole.
Turn on the switch after the tap has been conformed
to the prepared hole. Rotating the main unit with
no load will waver the tap, making it difficult to
conform it to the prepared hole.
Also, tapping it at an angle without conforming it
to the prepared hole may result in tap breakage.
4. Never touch the tap while it is rotating.
Do not allow hands or any part of the body to come
into contact with the tap, drill chuck or filings while
the tapper unit is rotating. This could result in cuts
or things being wound around the rotating parts.
The tap and drill chuck will be very hot after
continuous periods of tapping, so touching them
may result in burns.
5. Do not release your hold of the machine while it
is rotating.
Never let the machine rotate unless you are holding
it firmly with both hands. Allowing it to be left alone
on the floor and the like while it is rotating is
extremely dangerous.
6. Do not apply any unreasonable force by pressing
the machine against the material.
The tapping rate of this machine is determined by
its number of revolution. Pressing the machine
against the material will not reduce the tapping
time but will cause troubles such as breaking taps
and damaging threads.
7. Do not operate the machine for a long time in low
speed. A powerful motor is incorporated in this
machine. However, continued operation of the
machine for a long time using low speed will cause
an unreasonable load to be applied to the motor,
possibly damaging the motor. In particular, be sure
to avoid any forceful operation of the machine
which will cause the tap to stop midway. Make sure
to select a correct number of revolution for smooth
tapping to be performed.

APPLICATIONS
䡬
Tapping with all types of steel, copper alloy and
aluminum materials.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could cause
a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Fixing the side handle
Screw the side handle into the gear cover.
5. To hold the tap
Be sure to fasten the tap tightly with a chuck wrench.
There are three holes on the chuck wrench. Instead
of fastening it tightly at only one hole, fasten the
tap evenly at all three holes, one after another.
Tap to be used
(1) Only use a preceding tap or a medium tap.
(2) When a 8mm-dia tap for which the I-length is
more than 40mm as shown in
Fig. 1
is used,
insert the square back end of the tap all the
way into the square hole of the floating
spindle as shown in
Fig. 2
.
Next, fasten the drill chuck with the chuck handle
at three sections with equal force.
(3) When a slip occurs between the drill chuck and
the tap when it is fastened with an 8mm-dia
tap for which I-length is less than 40mm as in
Fig.1
and a tap that is larger than 8mm in dia.,
perform anyone of the following.
