waRNiNg: Before using the machine ensure that you have
read the sections on the intended and prohibited of use of
this machine.
This machine should only be used for hole boring/drilling
whilst attached to the work piece by the electromagnetic base.
waRNiNg: This machine is intended for use at any position,
but only if the electromagnet is in full working order and has
sufficient hold on the work piece material.
The safety strap or chain should be attached in case of power
failure or machine malfunction.
The safety strap or chain should NOT be used as an alternative
to the magnet for clamping purposes.
Always ensure the strap or chain is correctly fitted and the
machine is secure BEFOrE starting the machine. (9.12<)

coolaNT / luBRicaNT Flow.
Note: It is recommended that a Soluble Oil is used as other
coolants/lubricants may have a high viscosity and may not
flow easily to the cutter.
ensure that the Coolant/lubrication bottle is filled with
suitable Coolant/lubrication liquid and that the on/off tap is
in the ON position.
• ensure that the work piece is flat, clean and free from any
rust, coatings or other contamination.
• position the machine onto the work piece.
• Connect the plug into a mains supply socket and switch on
at the socket. (UK only)
• energise the magnetic base by operating the Magnet
'ON/OFF' switch.
The machine should now be firmly attached to the mild steel
plate.
Before commencing the cutting operation check that there is
sufficient Coolant/lubrication flow at the cutter.

To ensure coolant/lubrication flow:
• slightly loosen the Coolant/lubrication bottle cap. This will
prevent a vacuum being created that will stop the Coolant/
Lubrication fluid from flowing.
• gently squeeze the Coolant/lubrication bottle to force the
Coolant/lubrication through to the cutter.
• lower the cutting head towards the work piece until the
cutter teeth touch the work piece and the pilot pin is
depressed, then raise the cutting head.
• Continue this process until the Coolant/lubrication fluid is
flowing onto the work piece.

Note: This machine is fitted with the latest Anti Stall
Technology (AST).
If the cutting forces result in the motor stalling, the electronics
will switch off the motor, preventing burnout. The magnet will
remain energised holding the machine safely in position.
To reset after aST activation:
• set the motor switch to the off position.
• back off the cutter from the material.
• wait 3-5 seconds before restarting by switching the motor
switch to the ON position.
Note: If after activation of the AST system or at any other time
during operation the machine fails to restart, or there is no
magnetic adhesion check the 10Amp (5x20mm) Surge Fuse. (Fig.
8) If it has blown, it must be replaced with an identical type.
MaKiNg a cuT
waRNiNg: Ensure that the secondary slide is locked. The
locking lever has a Left Hand thread and is located on the
lower Left Hand side of the gearbox housing. (Fig. 9)
This must be fully tightened and will prevent any lateral
movement of the cutting head during the cutting operation.
• Correctly position the machine on the work piece, with
the electro magnet energised and with the safety strap
secured in place.
• Check for sufficient Coolant/lubrication fluid flowing at the cutter.
• start the motor by selecting the on position of the blACK
switch, located on top of the machine. (refer to Fig.5)
• using the feed handles slowly lower the cutting head until
the cutter makes contact with the work piece.
