OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Ensure the part to be tapped is secured and sitting flat on
the same flat surface that the tapping arm is mounted.
2. Select the correct tap holder for the tap size required.
Insert the tap into the holder by depressing the locking
ring. Seat the tap square into the tap holder. Release
the locking ring (see Figure 7).
3. Push up the quick-change chuck’s collar to insert the tap holder.
When inserting the tap holder in the quick-change chuck, turn the
holder to align the ears of the holder to the drive slots in the quick-
change chuck. Push up to lock the holder in the chuck (see Figure 8).
4. Select gear 1 or gear 2 by turning the knob on the gearbox. It may be
necessary to wiggle the motor’s chuck back and forth slightly while
turning the knob on the gearbox to switch from one gear to the
other. Ensure the knobs indicator is fully aligned with the gear 1 or
gear 2 marking on the gearbox. If not, the gears are not fully
engaged and damage to the internals of the gearbox may occur.
5. NEVER CHANGE GEARS WHILE THE MOTOR IS RUNNING!
6. Position the tap over the hole to be tapped.
7. When tapping through holes, remember that the tap will protrude through the bottom side of the
work piece. Ensure there is sufficient clearance below the workpiece to allow the tap to extend below
the bottom surface of the part and not hit the work surface.
8. Use a torque style tap holder when tapping blind or bottom holes. The built-in safety clutch on the
torque holders will rachet and stop the tap from turning when the tap reaches the bottom of the hole.
