Operation - Proxxon MICROMOT 50 E Manual

Description of machine
The PROXXON drilling and milling machine
MICROMOT 50 (E/EF) is the ideal tool for
precise drilling, milling, grinding, polishing,
brushing, rust removal, engraving, chasing
and cutting.
For hobby electronics, model making,
precision mechanics, jewellery shops,
opticians, arts, tool and mould making.
For marking tools and cameras.
It can be used on steel, non-ferrous metals,
glass, wood, minerals and ceramics.
The drill spindle is supported in a precision
ball bearing which eliminates any play.
Excellent handling because of the pen-type
grip.
The machine is reliably driven by a high
torque motor. Type 50/E-EF is fitted with an
electronic speed regulator.

Never press the locking knob (arrow Fig. 2)
while the machine is running.
1. Turn the spigot nut 1 (Fig. 2) gently while
pressing the locking knob until it engages.
2. Open the clamping jaw and change the tool.
Clamp all tools as short as possible. Shafts,
which protrude too far will bend easily
causing the machine to vibrate.
Power supply
Use only power units with a minimum power
output of 1 A. We re commend use of the
PROXXON power units NG 2 (S/E) or NG 5 (E).
1. Push the non-reversible plug into the
power unit.
If overloaded, the PROXXON power unit will
switch off automatically. Disconnect mains
plug and let the power unit cool down for a
few minutes.
Working with the machine
Always wear goggles. Do not use any broken
grinding discs or bent shafts.
2. Switch the machine on 1 or 4 (Fig. 1) and
set the correct speed (50/E only) with the
button 1.
Note:
Pressing hard does not achieve good results
when grinding. Use the correct speed and
maintain it.

3. Fig. 3 shows two typical methods for
holding MICROMOT 50. When working,
ensure that the tool is held firmly in order
to guide the rotating application tool in a
controlled manner without thereby blocking
the ventillation slots.
