INSTALLING THE HOUGEN CUTTER IN THE ARBOR
1. Disconnect from the power source and remove T-Handle
wrench from holder at top of drill.
2. Lay drill on its side with the feed handles up or be sure
the Arbor clears table if unit is in normal operating
position.
3. Turn the Feed Handles until the cutter mounting set
screws are exposed and completely remove the set
screws.
4. Insert proper pilot in shank end of the Hougen Cutter.
5. Insert the Hougen Cutter until the flat on the cutter shank
is aligned with the set screw holes and is exactly
perpendicular to axis of the set screw holes.
6. Insert the set screws and tighten. Check to be certain
that the cutter is secure.
OPERATION OF THE CUTTING FLUID RESERVOIR
FOR BEST RESULTS ALWAYS USE COOLANT
1. With Magnetic Drill in the operating position, turn
the feed handles so that the cutter and pilot are
above the work surface.
2. With the magnet turned ON & motor OFF,
A) For non-coolant bottle drills... fill the arbor
reservoir by introducing RotaMagic™ cutting
fluid through the slots in Arbor. Cutting fluid
should not leak out.
B) For drills with a Coolant bottle... attach the
coolant bottle per diagram and fill with coolant.
3. Test metering capabilities of the Arbor/Cutter/Pilot
assembly (magnet ON - motor OFF) by feeding
the Arbor gently toward the work surface until the
pilot is pushed up into the Cutter, thus allowing
fluid to filter down onto the work surface through
the groove in the pilot.
Non-Coolant Bottle Drills.....
4. For proper lubrication, all fluid in the reservoir
should empty onto the work surface in no less
than 15 seconds and no longer than 30 seconds.
5. The Arbor Reservoir holds enough coolant for
cutting approximately one hole.
* This method of using coolant can also be used
for an attached coolant bottle if the bottle is lost.
6.
For drills with a coolant bottle, use the coolant
bottle on/off lever to adjust the flow of the coolant.
7. For horizontal or drilling overhead holes, use
Slick-Stik™ Lubricant.
