DRILLINGAHOLE
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:

1Usethetipofthepilotpintodeterminethecenteroftheholetobedrilled.

2Turnthemagnetonandverifythatthedrillisintherightpositionandthatthemachineis
pushedtightagainsttheworkpiece.

3If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AnnularCuttertouchthe
metal.DonotpushtheAnnular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Annular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!!


DRILLINGWITHANNULARCUTTERS
Annularcuttersonlycutmaterialattheperipheryofthehole,ratherthanconvertingtheentirehole
toshavings.Asaresult,theenergyrequiredtomakeaholeislowerthanforatwistdrill.
Whendrillingwithanannularcutter,itisnotnecessarytodrillapilothole.

WARNING:Donottouchthecutterorthepartsclosetothecutterimmediatelyafter
operation,astheymaybeextremelyhotandcauseburnstotheskin.Ensurenobodyisinthe
workareawherethemetalcoreisejected.
