TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE
Ø
When transporting the machine, always use the carrying handle.
Ø
Ensure the drilling head is at the lowest position.
Ø
DO NOT transport the machine with cutters or bits in the tool holder.
Ø
If the coolant bottle is connected, ensure the valve is in the “off” position or the
coolant has been drained.
Ø
If transporting inside a vehicle, it is recommended to transport it on its side so as to
avoid the item falling over.
Ø
If possible, transport in a case.
Ø
DO NOT carry the machine by the cord.
Ø
DO NOT allow the cord or plug to drag along the floor when transporting.
RUNNING THE MACHINE
Ø
Do all pre-operational and operational safety checks from Chapter 1.
Ø
Consider your security and stability as well as the orientation of the machine in the
work area.
o
Consider the work surface material, condition, strength, density and rigidity.
These factors directly affect the tools magnetic adhesion. Magnetic adhesion
diminishes with thinner material and rough surface. Full magnetic spec’d
adhesion is considered on 1” material. When using on material 3/8” or less,
the drill should be mechanically clamped to the work-piece.
Ø
After placing the machine in work area, connect the safety chain.
o
The safety chain should attach to the machine (preferably through the
carrying handle) as well as attached to the work area in such a manner that
prevents the machine from detaching or falling from the work area in the
event of magnetic deactivation or lost adhesion.
Ø
Ensure the feed handles are securely attached to the feed spindle.
Ø
Ensure the work surface and bottom of magnet are free of debris, oil, etc.
Ø
Select appropriate size tool holder, chuck or adapters.
Ø
Select and set up oiling method or cutting pastes.
o
If drilling overhead or horizontal use cutting paste liberally applied to the
cutting bit.
Ø
If using the machine horizontally with the oil bottle, connect bottle to the side of the
machine using the two set screws located on the drill frame.
o
Connect the oil bottle tube into the side of the tool holder by firmly pressing
in the hose.
