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. Be sure the switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start-
up can cause injury.
Just as every magnetic drilling machine with moving parts, your EUROBOOR magnetic drilling
machine also needs regular maintenance service. A few recommendations follow :
Visually check the machine for damage
The machine must be checked before operating for any signs of damage that will affect the operation
of the machine. Particular notice must be taken of the main cable, if the machine appears to be
damaged it should not be used. Failure to do so may cause injury or death.
Cleaning
-
Clean all dirt, dust, metal chips and burrs of your magnetic drilling machine;
-
Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and
around the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and an approved dust mask;
-
Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool.
These chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with
water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into a liquid.
Operation of the machine
The machines operation must be checked to ensure that all components are working correctly.
Replace any defective parts immediately. This prevents properly functioning parts from being
damaged.
Check magnetic base
Before every operation the magnetic base should be checked to make sure that the base is flat and
there is no damage present. An uneven magnet base will cause the magnet to hold not as efficiently
and may cause injury to the operator. When the machine is put out of use for a longer period, apply
a small amount of machine oil to the underside of the magnetic base for rust protection. Clean the
magnetic base again with next use.
Check gearbox grease
The gearbox grease should be checked and replaced at least once a year to ensure maximum
lubrication and cooling, and thus the best performance and durability of the machine.
Carbon brush replacement
Schedule to replace the carbon brushes when the carbon brush LED indicator lights up. The
remaining operating time depends on the use of the machine. When the carbon brushes are fully
worn, the machine will shut-off automatically. Replace the carbon brushes to get it working again.
