    3. Preparation & adjustment 3.1 Assembly WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect machine from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set- ups or when making repairs. Be sure all switches are in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
  • Page 13: Prior To Use

    Please make sure that the contacting surface for the magnet is level, clean and rust-free. Remove any varnish or primer. When working on materials that are not magnetizable, suitable fixation devices, obtainable as accessories from EUROBOOR, e. g. suction plate, vacuum plate or pipe-drilling device must be used.

    NOTE: never touch moving machine parts! 3. Speed selection for annular cutters (also see plate on gearbox): min-1 min-1 Ø 27-55 mm Rotating speed 275 (ECO.55-A) or 60-275 (ECO.55-TA) min-1 min-1 Ø 12-26 mm Rotating speed 500 (ECO.55-A) or 100-500 (ECO.55-TA)
  • Page 17: Electromagnet

    4.4 Electromagnet Make sure the magnetic drilling machine is placed on a smooth, clean, level and solid surface without any objects or dubree in between to guarantee maximum adhesion The workpiece must be at least 5 mm thick for the magnet to stick, but minimal 3 mm thick to hold the weight of the machine and to drill safely.
  • Page 18: Switching Motor On And Off

    Make sure that the magnet attaches tightly to the work piece before turning on the motor unit of the magnetic drilling machine. Euroboor magnets have 2 coils; make sure that both coils are in contact with the material. Do not connect any other machines to the electrical outlet the magnetic drilling machine is plugged into, as it may result in the loss of magnetic force.
  • Page 19: Automatic Functionality

    Ø 55 mm. For Ø 30 – 55 mm the use of TCT annular cutters is advised to ensure the fastest and most efficient (automatic) drilling performance. 2. Automatic drilling machines ECO.55-A and ECO.55-TA are equipped with a penetration recognition. When drilling with annular cutters in automatic mode, the magnetic drilling machine recognizes when the hole is finished.
  • Page 20 4. During the process of drilling with annular cutters, It is possible to switch from manual to automatic mode and vice versa. WARNING: Always check if the situation before drilling in automatic mode is safe. Stay close by to the machine and keep a close eye to the automatic drilling process to be ready to switch of the machine whenever there is need to.

    4.9 LED display & torque control This machine is equipped with an electronic display, showing: Used motor power LED indicators 1. Switch on the electromagnet. All LED indicators shortly light up and a beep sounds 2. Switch on the motor and start drilling. When the tool first touches the workpiece the used motor power shown in the display increases, and can be increased or decreased by raising of reducing the pressure on the feed handles.
  • Page 22: Temperature Control

    WARNING: Do not use the lubrication system in vertical or overhead drilling applications. Instead use Euroboor cutting paste Make sure to use only suitable cutting oil or fluid. Euroboor offers a wide range of cutting lubricants for all tool and material combinations. Proper cooling will help you create better and faster results,...
  • Page 23: Working With Operating Tools

    5 Working with operating tools 5.1 Annular cutters Annular cutters only cut material at the periphery of the hole, rather than converting the entire hole to shavings. As a result, the energy required to make a hole is lower than for a twist drill. When drilling with an annular cutter, it is not necessary to drill a pilot hole.
  • Page 24 3. Use the pilot pin to position the machine and in the correct position, with the tip of the pilot pin to meet the marked center of the hole. 4. Switch on the magnet and verify that the drill is in the right position and that the machine is pushed tight against the work piece.
