2.7 Environmental Separate collection. This product must not be disposed of with normal household waste. Separate collection of used products and packaging allows materials to be recycled and used again. Re-use of recycled materials helps prevent environmental pollution and reduces the demand for raw materials. Local regulations may provide for separate collection of electrical products from the household, at municipal waste sites or by the retailer when you purchase a new product.
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.
3.2 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 magnetisable, suitable fixation devices, obtainable as accessories, e.g. suction plate, vacuum plate or pipe- drilling device must be used.
4. Using the machine WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations. WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. 4.1 Control panel The control panel on your magnetic drilling machine is designed for maximum operating facility and safety.
4.2 Electromagnet Make sure the magnetic drilling machine is placed on a smooth, clean, level and solid surface without any objects or debris in between to guarantee maximum adhesion. The workpiece must be at least 6 mm (1/4") thick for the magnet to stick, but minimal 3 mm (1/8") thick to hold the weight of the machine and to drill safely.
Make sure that the magnet attaches tightly to the work piece before turning on the motor unit of the magnetic drilling machine. Our 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.
5. Working with operation 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.
5. If your machine is equipped with a lubrication system, put open the valve to release the oil. If your machine does not have such a system, fill the holes of the spindle with oil; 6. Switch the motor on at and allow it to run at the required speed; 7.
6. Maintenance Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning. CAUTION: 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.
