If you are unfamiliar with the use of annular 

(or broaching) cutters, read this guide - you will 

benefit from the better performance and longer 

life of the tool if you understand the concept.

  Annular  cutters  only  cut  material  at  the 

periphery of the hole leaving a solid ‘slug’ at 

the centre which is ejected at the end of the cut, 

rather than converting the entire hole to shavings. 

As a result, the time and energy required to make 

the hole is lower than for a traditional twist 

drill. 

  The  broaching  capacity  of  a  machine  is 

therefore greater than the twist drill capacity. 

The slug ejected after the cut also has a higher 

scrap value than shavings.

  The benefits in terms of productivity can be 

as much as double.

If  there  is  an  overload  during  drilling,  the 

following functions are automatically activated. 

The load detector may not function properly if 

the power supply is an engine generator or the 

supply voltage is too high or too low.

UNCTION

This system automatically controls the feed 

rate where several seconds after start-up of the 

drilling it automatically slows down the feed 

and then the rate varies depending on the load 

on the motor. The feed rate is also automatically 

regulated according to the cutter diameter.

UNCTION

Both the drilling and feeding operations stop 

automatically whenever there is an excessive 

load on the motor, preventing the motor and 

cutter from breaking. If the cutter is dull, however, 

breakage may be inevitable.

After the cut has finished, a detector responds to 

the reduction in load and both the drill and the

Even if the automatic stop function fails at the end 

of drilling, allowing the drill motor to continue 

downward feed, the limit switch stops both the 

drilling and feed when the stroke reaches its

• When a power failure occurrs while the tool 

is being used, the restart prevention function 

operates when the power is restored.

• Even when the drill stops during operation 

because  of  the  interruption  or  accidental 

unplugging of the power supply, and the power 

supply then resumes,  the indicator lamps are lit 

and the magnet regains its attracting power, but 

the drill motor will not rotate.

• To resume work, set the magnet switch to On 

and then the motor switch to On, and the drill 

motor will start.

FUNCTIONS

1. Slow start

The  feed  motor  rotates  slowly  before  cutting 
starts  for  cutter  protection  and  ease  of 
centring.

2. Auto feed speed adjustment

The  feeding  speed  is  automatically  adjusted 
depending on the size of cutter used.

3. Auto-return

The  drill  motor  rises  quickly  when  cutting  is 
completed  and  stops  at  its  original  retracted 
position.

4. Auto-stop

The drill motor stops to avoid breakage of the 
cutter when the force required to cut reaches a 
predetermined amount. The drill motor will stop 
if the magnet base moves during cutting.

5. Non-accidental-start

The machine must be reset if the power supply 
is  lost  during  operation.  The  switch  must  be 
manually set to off and then back to on to reset.
