Drilling
Now that you have read the explanatory information and safety recommendations above, you are ready to
actually start drilling. Follow these 10 steps for best drilling result :
1
Use the tip of the pilot pin to determine the center of the hole to be drilled.
2
Turn the magnet on and verify that the drill is in the right position and that the machine is
pushed tight against the work piece.`
3
If your machine is equipped with a auto coolant system, put open the valve to release the oil.
If your machine does not have a auto coolant system, fill the holes of the spindle with oil.
4
Turn the motor on at the highest setting and allow it to run at full speed.
5
Turn the arms to start drilling. Apply only a slight pressure when the hole cutter touch the
metal. Do not push the hole cutter with force into the metal.
6
Apply a regular pressure while drilling. The drilling performance does not improve by putting
more pressure on the tool. Too much pressure will overload the motor and your hole cutter
will be worn sooner.
Let the cutter do the job and give it time to cut the metal !!!
7
Adjust the oil supply when necessary, if your drill does not have a auto coolant system, stop
drilling regularly, refill the holes of the spindle and continue drilling.
8
Apply less pressure when the drill cuts through the material.
9
Turn the arms to put the motor in highest position and turn off the motor unit.
10 Remove the burr, metal chips and clean the cutter and surface without getting injuries.
Caution : The metal piece drilled out can be sharp and very hot!!
Tapping ECO.100/4
Drill the hole on the recommended size of the tap. Do not turn the magnet off to keep the machine on its position.
Take the cutter out and use a tap collet (Euroboor TCM series) to fix the tap to the machine. These TCM adapters
exist in several DIN and ISO norms and are based on the shaft diameter of the tap that is used. Use the low gear and
low rpm for tapping. Stop the machine manually before the tap is completely through the hole. Select the Reverse
(Left) and let the tap run back slowly but also support the run back by turning back the handles. Do not let your tap
push back the motorunit by itself! If your tap have to make the whole way through the material, then remove the
tap out of the collet when the hole is completely tapped.
For quick change of taps Euroboor have also special tapholders like the GSW.333 with a insert for every tap size and
the GSW830 with a variable clamp system. See www.euroboor.com for more details about these tapholders.
