OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

: Do not over-feed cutter. Excessive feed 

pressure may cause the magnet to break free from 
material.

DRILLING MULTIPLE LAYER MATERIALS:

**Special Cutter Geometry Required!
Second layer penetration may be diffi cult. Slight 
additional feed pressure may be required (avoid over-
feed as noted above).

If unable to penetrate second layer, withdraw cutter 
from material ejecting slug and clean away any 
remaining chips. Feed cutter in hole and continue cut.

• Turn motor off when cut is fi nished.
• Fully retract cutter from material, ejecting the slug.
• Remove safety strap.

7. Turn magnet switch to “OFF” position.

    CAUTION

: Retain fi rm hold on drill to prevent   

    dropping.

Cutter Inside Diameter may collect chips, restricting 
depth of cut. Cutter should be frequently inspected 
and any chips or debris removed.

   

  

OPTIONAL FEED METHODS:

• 5/8” Box Wrench
• Ratchet with 5/8” Socket
• NO PLIERS OR OPEN END WRENCH (They will   
  damage threaded feed handle mounting holes)

6. Feed Cutter slowly into workpiece. Only after cutting 
    path is established to a depth of about 1/16” can 
    additional force be applied to feed handles.
    Ease up on feed pressure as cutter starts           
    breaking through
