3.2. Mounting and operating the annular cutter
Mount
the arbor
as
described before and insert the proper pilot pin
into the annular
cutter (Figure 4). Then, wear gloves and mount the cutter into the arbor, aligning the
flats on the cutter shank with the set screws, and tighten the screws with the supplied
5 mm hex wrench. To dismount the cutter, proceed in reverse order.
Figure 4.
Mounting the annular cutter
Figure 5 shows how annular cutters operate. As the cutter penetrates the workpiece,
the pilot pin recesses into the arbor and tightens the spring. As a result, after
the
cutter
goes
through
the
entire thickness, the slug core is expelled from the cutter.
