Magnetic Drilling Machine
Operating Manual
TIP:
Most situations which cause problems or question marks have already occurred for
other users. Contact Schifler or your dealer to see if a solution exists for your situation.
(example: for drilling into non-magnetic material with your magnetic drill, a special
vacuum system has been designed).
TIP:
Do not use your magnetic drill on the same structure when ARC welding is in
progress. D.C. current will earth back through the magnet and cause irreparable damage.
TIP:
It is recommended that machine is laid to rest every 30 minutes in order to permit
grease to run across the gear box .
WARNING:
When drilling in inverted position, metal swarf can enter the motor. This can
cause irreparable damage and can cause electrical shocks.
WARNING:
After drilling the slug will be ejected and is very hot.
WARNING:
Steel plates of less than 10 mm thickness, coatings, paints and dirt between
magnet and workpiece can affect clamping force and create a possible dangerous
situation. Always make sure your magnetic drill is fastened with the supplied safety chain
and make sure your machine is sufficient attached to the workpiece to start drilling.
6. Handy Tips
WARNING:
This appliance must be earthed.
WARNING:
When drilling in inverted position, cutting oil can enter the motor and can
cause irreparable damage.
TIP:
During drilling it is recommended after a certain depth the cutter should be pulled up
on free load in order to permit grease to run across the gear box.
TIP:
When using models with gear and variable speed always select a setting with low
transmission ratio and high motor speed, if possible.
TIP:
For 100% magnet clamping force you need at least 10 mm of steel. Coatings,
paintings and dirt between magnet and workpiece will affect clamping force.
