4.2 High-power electromagnet
Make sure the magnetic drilling machine is placed on a smooth, clean, level and solid surface without
any objects or debris to guarantee maximum adhesion.
The workpiece must at least be 6 mm (1/4") thick for the magnet to stick and to drill safely. In case
the workpiece is between 3 (1/8") and 6 mm (1/4"), make sure to make a proper base to create a
good magnetic field as shown below.

The electromagnet will work best on surfaces of at least 10 mm (3/8") thickness.
When the electromagnet is not able to create a good enough magnetic field, this may be caused by:
-
Surface not being flat;
-
Workpiece is not magnetisable (e.g. aluminium);
-
Workpiece is coated or painted;
-
Workpiece is not thick enough.
In this situation the magnet indicator will light up red. Make sure to solve any of these matters
before proceeding in any way and creating unsafe situations.
Using the magnet:
1.
Place and position the machine on the workpiece;
2.
To activate the magnet, press the red magnet switch:
The magnet switch will be lit (red);
The LED indicator lights up GREEN when generated magnetic force is sufficient;
3.
To deactivate the magnet, press the same switch again.
WARNING:
Do not use this machine when LED indicator is RED. Magnet may not generate
sufficient attachment force.
