cause power cord to break and result in electric shock.
7. Untrained bystanders must not be present near machine.
8. Before starting, check condition of machine and electrical installation, including
power cord, plug, control panel components, and milling tools.
9. Keep machine dry. Exposing it to rain, snow, or frost is prohibited.
10. Keep work area well lit, clean, and free of obstacles.
11. Never use machine near flammable fluids or gases, nor in explosive environments.

that may affect machine operation.
15. Always use safety goggles, hearing protection, gloves, and protective clothing
during operation. Do not wear loose clothing.
16. Do not touch moving parts or metal chips formed during drilling. Prevent objects
from being caught in moving parts.
17. After every use, remove metal chips from machine, particularly from drilling arbor.
Never remove metal chips with bare hands.
18. Maintain machine and tools with care. Cover steel parts with thin grease layer to
protect them against rust when not in use for a longer period.

21. If machine falls on hard surface, from height, is wet, or has other damage that
could affect technical state of machine, stop operation and immediately send
machine to service center for inspection.
Minibeast drilling machine must be connected to "protected power source" which is
properly grounded. Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of
electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the tool. Never
remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use tool if the cord or plug is
damaged, have it repaired before using. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. The Minibeast must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. If in doubt of proper grounding, call a qualified electrician.
3. STARTUP AND OPERATION

•Work piece is made of steel
•Thickness of steel is at least (10mm)
•Surface of Steel under the Magnet is flat
•Wipe, brush or sand down clean surface where you intended do use the
drilling machine, so that you remove rust, paint, dirt etc which would reduce
adhesive power of the electromagnetic base.
•Install Turbo-cutter in the machine before plugging it into mains, then plug in
and position where you wish to use it.
•Place the machine so that the tool is over the centre of the hole you intend to
make and turn the Magnetic Base ON.
3.3 Ready to Make the Cut
1. Insert the annular cutter in to the machine arbor, lining up the flats on the cutter
shank drive with the set screws on the arbor. Secure the set screws making sure
the screws are recessed in Arbor body.
The surface you are working on should be clean and level, free from rust, scale,
dirt and chips.
2. When using the annular cutter arbor fill coolant reservoir with a water-soluble
coolant.
3. Position the Minibeast on the work piece.
4. Lower cutter / drill to surface of materiel. When using cutter tool holder, coolant
flow starts when pilot pin is depressed. Lifting pilot pin off work surface will stop
coolant flow.
5. Place the drilling machine on the work piece, with pilot pin over the centre of the
hole to be cut.
6. Move the rocker switch located on the panel to the ON position. The switch will
illuminate to indicate DC power is going to the magnet.
7. Depress motor ON switch to start drill.
8. To start a cut, apply pressure until the cutter has established an external grove.
Then apply steady pressure through the remainder of the cut (Note: Do not peck

drill when using annular cutters). The tools are designed to evacuate chips when
drilling.
Correct Cutter Usage
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Only use your Minibeast to cut through single layers of material when using standard annular
cutters.
Do not attempt to cut through multiple layers/stacks/laminates of material with your Minibeast
magnetic drilling machine using standard annular cutter. Once the first plate has been drilled, the
centre slug will retain in the cutter. Attempting to continue the cutting process will result in cutter
breakage, or can cause the magnet to break away from the surface, resulting in injury. (Note –
always secure the machine to the workpiece with the provided safety strap).
To achieve multiple layer cutting, please refer to JEI’s Multi Layer Cutter form, available for all
Turbo™types. This will allow the solid slugs to be retained in the cutter during the cut and be
safely ejected once the hole cutting process is completed. Please refer to your JEI distributor for
further details.
3.4 After the cut
1. After the cut, has finished, the slug should be expelled on the down stroke, if the
slug is not expelled after the cut, disconnect the machine from the power source
and remove the cutter from the arbor body, then expel the slug. (Caution: the
pilot should not be used to do this.

2. After the cut is finished return motor to the full upright position, depress motor
OFF button wait until motor fully stops. Move magnet switch to the OFF position
to release the magnetic base from the material.
