5. Working with drilling accessories 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.

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; 5. Fill the holes of the spindle with oil; 6. Switch the motor on and allow it to run at the required speed; 7.
1. Fit the twist drill: a. Straight shank twist drills Use a Weldon to drill chuck adapter (such as Euroboor IBK.14, 19.05 mm (3/4") Weldon to 1/2" x 20 UNF) to fit a drill chuck and straight shank twist drill accordingly;...
Page 24
Weldon shank twist drills Directly fit a Weldon shank twist drill (such as Euroboor SPI/SSPI-series) directly to the machine; [image 5-3] 2. Precisely mark the center of the hole, and use the tip of the twist drill to position the machine in the correct position, with the tip of the twist drill to meet the marked center of the hole.
5.3 Machine taps The ECO.50+/T model is also suited for counter clockwise rotation and can therefore also be used for cutting threads. Proceed as follows for cutting threads: 1. Install the tap; [image 5-4] 2. Drill the hole for the thread on the recommended size of the tap;...
Switch on the machine again and allow the machine tap to come completely out of the work piece. Then guide the motor unit slide upwards with the feed handles to avoid damaging the start of the thread. Do not let your tap push up the motor unit by itself! Make sure to properly lubricate while performing tapping work, see paragraph 5.1 Annular cutters.
6. Maintenance Your Euroboor magnetic drilling machine has been designed to operate over a long period of time. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, turn the machine off and disconnect machine from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set- ups or when making repairs.
