Before use
Euroboor magnet drilling machines are specially designed for drilling holes is steel, possibly expanded by
the possibility of tapping/reaming/countersinking (depending on model). Euroboor magnetic drilling
machines may not be adapted and/or used for applications other than those they were designed for,
including driving other machines.
Make sure that you can oversee the entire work areas from where you are operating this machine. Use
barriers to keep others away. Do not use the machine in places subject to hazard of explosion- electrical
tools produce sparks which may ignite flammable materials or gasses. To prevent electrical shocks, do not
use the machine in moist or wet conditions or environments. Always operate this tool using both hands.
Make sure the work piece is always clamped down safety.
This magnetic drilling machine is equipped with a lead and plug approved for the country or region it is to
be used in. The yellow-green wire in the lead is the earth wire. Never connect this to a pole under voltage.
All Euroboor magnetic drilling machines are manufactured to use with AC current and not suitable to work
on DC current. Make sure the magnetic drilling machine is connected to a stable power supply. Euroboor
do not recommend the use of a generator or other mobile power supply for power supply. Euroboor does
not recommend the use of extension cables. If there is no other way, use good quality cables and keep
extension cables as short as possible. Be aware that long power leads can cause less current.

Cooling/Lubrication
1 Holes for cooling and lubrication oil
2 Fixing screws of spindle
Euroboor recommends the use of cooling and lubrication agents. Not only do these
assist in drilling but they will also lengthen the lifespan of your tools. One of the
advantages of the use of hole cutters is that cooling and lubrication agent scan be
supplied from the inside, so that the agents end up in the right place.
All magnetic drilling machines from Euroboor can be equipped with a automatic cooling
system which provides a guaranteed supply of the cooling and lubrication agents from
the inside. If your machine is not be equipped with an automatic coolant system it will
still be possible to cool from the inside.
Use the holes in the spindle (number 1 in picture) for this purpose by squirting the
cooling and lubrication agent into the drill spindle through them
NOTE : For vertical or upside-down processing, Euroboor recommends the use of a drilling
compound or paste like IBP50/2.
4 - Tool Assembly
Hole Cutter Assembly
1 : Pilot Pin
2 : Center hole in shank of Hole Cutter
3 : Shank of Hole Cutter
4 : Groove or flatted surface for oil pass
5 : Flat surface for fixing Hole Cutter
Clean the inner wall and the shaft of the Hole Cutter to ensure proper oil supply. First
insert the Pilot Pin into the center hole of the Shank. After that you can slide the Hole
Cutter assembly into the spindle of your Magnetic Drilling Machine. After sliding the
Hole Cutter Assembly into type spindle, make sure the two flat surfaces (number 5 in
picture) are located exactly in front of the two fixing screws of your spindle (see
number 2 in picture of chapter 4-4-2). Tighten them both subsequently with the
included 4mm Allen Key.

7
Drill Chuck Assembly
The option of making our machines suitable for the use of standard spiral drills and other tools by using a
cylindrical shaft is an important characteristic of Euroboor magnetic drilling machines. Please see the
technical data for maximum capacity.
Installation of 13mm Chuck by using adapter IBK.14
The IBK.14 is a adaptor from 1/2"x20 UNF to 3/4" Weldon.
Attach a Drill Chuck (like Euroboor IBK.13) with internal 1/2"x20 UNF on the IBK.14 adaptor.
To attach the assembly into your Spindle, follow the instructions (with exception of the Pilot Pin) for
installation of a Hole Cutter. Adaptor IBK.14 can be used on most machines in our program.
Installation of 13mm Chuck directly on the motor unit
For the ECO.32, ECO.32T, ECO.40 and IBM.30/2 magnetic drilling machines it is possible to install a drill
Chuck directly to the shaft extending from the motor unit. For ECO.32T First remove the two Allen screws
on top of the spindle with the included Allen key no. 3. Remove the Spindle by using wrench 18 and 20. Fix
the extending motor shaft with wrench 18 and turn the spindle with wrench 20 anti-clockwise.
Take the spindle of the shaft and out of the triangular guide (Steady). Remove all the Allen screws below
the triangular guide by using the included Allen Key no. 5. Now can install the Drill Chuck with internal
1/2"x20 UNF tread on the extending shaft of the motor unit.
IMPORTANT : When reinstalling the spindle and the triangular guide (steady), you must ensure that the
triangular guide (steady) does not cause any friction or resistance to the spindle as it turns.
4 - The Magnetic Drilling Machine
The Magnetic base
Material of minimum 10mm thickness is required for the magnet to work the best.
The attachment force generated by the magnet depends on various factors.
- Thickness of the material the magnet is placed on
- Paint or coating of the material the magnet is placed on.
- Metal chips, oil or other dirt under the magnet.
If the LED indicator (see chapter 4-3-2) lights up GREEN, the magnet is generating sufficient attachment
force. If the LED indicator lights up RED, the magnet may not generating sufficient attachment force.
We would like to point out that this is only an indication and not a certainly that the magnet will not
release from the material. Euroboor accepts no liability ensuring from the magnet indicator not
functioning or functioning poorly.

8
Make sure that the magnet attaches tightly to the work piece before turning on the motor unit of the
magnetic drilling machine. Euroboor magnets have 2 coils; make sure that both coils are in contact with
the material. Do not connect any other machines to the electrical outlet the magnetic drilling machine is
plugged into, as it may result in the loss of magnetic force. Always use the safety chain included. Drilling
above your head is extremely dangerous and is not recommended. For the use of magnetic drilling
machines on pipes, not-flat or non-magnetic materials, we refer to our brochure or our website
www.euroboor.com where several vacuum tightening systems and pipe clamping systems are mentioned.
The Control Panel
The control panel on your magnetic drilling machine is designed for maximum operating facility and safety.
1 - The Magnet Switch:
This switch is used to switch the main power and also the
magnet On and Off. This switch is included on every
Euroboor magnetic drilling machine
2 - The On/Off Switch:
This switch is used to switch the motor unit On and Off
and is included on every Euroboor Magnetic Drilling
Machine
3 - The Fuse holder with Fuse:
This Fuse holder is included on every Euroboor Magnetic
Drilling Machine and holds the fuse type : 5x20, F2A.
4 - The Magnet LED Indicator:
This LED indicator shows the generated magnetic force.

Drilling
Now that you have read the explanatory information and safety recommendations above, you are ready to
actually start drilling. Follow these 10 steps for best drilling result :
1 Use the tip of the pilot pin to determine the center of the hole to be drilled.
2 Turn the magnet on and verify that the drill is in the right position and that the machine is
pushed tight against the work piece.`
3 If your machine is equipped with a auto coolant system, put open the valve to release the oil.
If your machine does not have a auto coolant system, fill the holes of the spindle with oil.
4 Turn the motor on at the highest setting and allow it to run at full speed.
5 Turn the arms to start drilling. Apply only a slight pressure when the hole cutter touch the
metal. Do not push the hole cutter with force into the metal.
6 Apply a regular pressure while drilling. The drilling performance does not improve by putting
more pressure on the tool. Too much pressure will overload the motor and your hole cutter
will be worn sooner. Let the cutter do the job and give it time to cut the metal !!!
7 Adjust the oil supply when necessary, if your drill does not have a auto coolant system, stop
drilling regularly, refill the holes of the spindle and continue drilling.
8 Apply less pressure when the drill cuts through the material.
9 Turn the arms to put the motor in highest position and turn off the motor unit.
10 Remove the burr, metal chips and clean the cutter and surface without getting injuries.
Caution : The metal piece drilled out can be sharp and very hot!!
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
When using your magnetic drilling machine non-horizontal or upside-down be aware
that no oil, drilling compound or metal chips can fall into the motor unit.
Euroboor accepts no responsibility for damage done to your machine
by such action under coverage of the warranty.

5 - Maintenance
Just as every magnetic drilling machine with moving parts, your Euroboor magnetic drilling machine also
needs regular maintenance service. A few recommendations follow :
- Clean all dirt, dust, metal chips and burrs of your magnetic drilling machine
- Regularly check the carbon brushes for wear
- Replace any defective parts immediately. This prevents properly function parts from being damaged.
- Adjust your guide regularly and make sure it is clean and greased. This prevents any movement from
being created and the spindle, triangular guide (steady) and guide parts from excessive wear or
damage. The guide can be adjusted by loosening the setting nut (#7 on spare part drawing) with
included wrench 8, tightening the setting screws (#5 on spare part drawing) with included Allen key
2.5 and tightening the setting nut (#7) again with included wrench 8. The adjustment is done well
when the motor unit can be turned to every possible position without falling down by its own weight.
- Check the grease in the gearbox regularly and replace it if necessary. We recommend you to store
your machine on its side regularly so that the gear box grease can run back to where the gears are.
This is very important when you have used your machine non-horizontal or upside down.
Repair, modification and inspection of Euroboor Magnetic drilling machines must be done by a
Euroboor authorized dealer. The parts list will be helpful if presented with the machine to the
Euroboor dealer for service when requesting repair or other maintenance.
Euroboor machines are constantly being improved and modified to incorporate the latest
technological advancements. Accordingly, some parts (ie part numbers and/or design) may be
changed without prior notice. Also, due to Euroboor's continuing program of research and
development, the specifications of machines are subject to change without prior notice.
