GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR KARNASCH MAGNETIC HOLE CUTTING MACHINES
1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read and understand the safety and
operating instructions, learn its application and limitations.
2. EARTH ALL TOOLS. Ensure that (where applicable) suitable earthed
cables/cords and plugs are used and correctly connected. Always
check cable plug for any damage.
3. KEEP GUARD IN PLACE. Fit and keep guards in place (where appli-
cable). Ensure correct adjustment and alignment.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. The footprint oft he magnet must be
clean (no chips, no rust, no dust).
5. AVOID DANGER. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations or
expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Provide adequate
surrounding work space. Keep the unit and the work place as clear
of dirt and swarf as possible.
6. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neck-
ties or jewellery (rings, wristwatches) to get caught in moving parts.
NONSLIP footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair, roll long sleeves above the elbow.
7. USE SAFTEY GOGGLES. (Head Protection). Wear approved safety
goggles at all times. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant
lens, they are NOT safety glasses. Also, use face or dust mask if
cutting operation is dusty, and ear protectors during extended peri-
ods of operation.
8. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vice to hold work when practical.
It’s safer and frees both hands to operate tool. Secure the unit with
safety chain/carabina when working overhead or vertical.
9. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
10. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best
and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Regular maintenance is essential. Check
nuts, screws, bolts for tightness.
11. DISCONNECT TOOLS. Before servicing; when changing accessories
such as cutters, etc.
12. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Never use blunt Cutters/ Drills.
13. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check
for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts mounting, and any other conditions that may affect operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.
14. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. Turn power off. Don’t
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
15. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension
cord. All visitors should be kept away from work area.
16. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry,
and high or locked-up place out of reach of children.
17. DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
18. DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to discon-
nect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges
quality, high-performance and reliable tools. Karnasch Professional
Tools offers all that matters!
19. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of chek-
king to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool
before turning it on.
20. AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in tool with
finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
21. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use
only extension cords intended for outdoors and so marked.
22. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not
operate tool when you are tired.
23. AVOID USING A POWER TOOL FOR APPLICATIONS OTHER THAN
THOSE SPECIFIED. Never use a power tool for applications other
than those specified in the instruction manual.
24. ENSURE SAFE OPERATION THROUGH CORRECT HANDLING. Secure
safe operation through correct handling by observing the instruc-
tions described herein. Do not employ accessories other than those
specified herein; otherwise, a hazardous condition may be created.
Never allow a power tool to be used by persons not familiar with
correct handling (such as children) or those who cannot handle the
tool correctly.
25. CONFIRM THAT NO ITEMS SUCH AS AN ELECTRIC CABLE OR
CONDUIT ARE BURIED INSIDE. In places where live wiring may be
hidden behind a wall, floor, ceiling, etc. do not hold or contact any
metal parts of the tool. In such cases metal parts could become
electrically live and present a serious shock hazard.
26. KEEP THE RIGHT PARTS IN THE RIGHT POSITIONS. Do not remove
covers and screws which have been factory-mounted. They perform
important retrospective roles. Keep them in the right positions.
27. SHOULD THE PLASTIC HOUSING OR HANDLE OF A POWER TOOL BE
CRACKED OR DAMAGED, DO NOT USE IT. Since cracked or deformed
parts may lead to an operator receiving an electric shock, do not use
such a power tool. Immediately have it repaired.
28. SECURELY MOUNT ACCESSORIES AND BLADES TO THE TOOL MAIN
BODY. Extra care must be taken when using tools on elevated locati-
on (such as a roof, ladder, scaffold or the like) to prevent injury to
someone on a lower level in the event of a dropping tool and / or an
accessory. Secure unit with safety chain/carabina.
29. ALWAYS KEEP THE MOTOR AIR VENT FULLY OPENED. A constantly
open motor air vent is necessary to allow air to come in and out for
cooling the motor. Do not allow it to become clogged up, even if the
dust is blown through it.
30. OPERATE POWER TOOLS AT THE RATED VOLTAGE. Operate power
tools at voltages specified on their nameplates.
31. NEVER TOUCH THE MOVING PARTS. Never touch the moving parts
such as bits, cutters, drills, taps, etc.
32. STOP OPERATION IMMEDIATELY IF ANY ABNORMALITY IS
DETECTED. Should a power tool be detected as out of order or
should other abnormalities be observed during operation, stop using
the tool immediately.
33. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF.
Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
34. CAREFULLY HANDLE POWER TOOLS. Should a power tool be drop-
ped or struck against hard materials inadvertently, it may be defor-
med, cracked, or damaged.
35. DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT. Solvents such as
gasoline, thinners, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may
damage and crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with solvents.
Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy
water.
36. REPAIRS TO MACHINE are to be carried out by qualified agent and
genuine spare parts are always to be used.
37. WARNING: Under no circumstances try to remove turnings or swarf
from the cutter when machine is in operation. NEVER introduce any
body parts to moving parts of the machine, when it is switched on.
This document is issued for general information and instruction and
as such does not constitute a specification of the equipment. Only
use faultless and sharp drilling tools and avoid that the machine
stops due to overload.
38. ATTENTION: When fitting drills or cutter arbors into morse taper
drive shafts, ensure morse taper and cone are free of grease and
dirt.
39. REMOVING MORSE TAPER TOOLS FROM MACHINE DRIVE SHAFT.
Always ensure power is switched off or unplug mains cable. Put the
drill drift in the opening of the gearbox collar. If you cannot insert the
drill drift through the work spindle, turn the work spindle slightly.
Remove the tool from the work spindle by a slight impact on the drill
drift.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
AND INFORMATION FOR POWER TOOLS

40. THE MAXIMUM MAGNETIC HOLDING FORCE OF THE MACHINE IS
OBTAINED FROM A MATERIAL THICKNESS OF 15 MM. Reduce feed
at thicknesses below 15mm. Below 10mm material thickness
magnetic hole cutting machines should not be used.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR KARNASCH MAGNETIC HOLE CUTTING MACHINES

FITTING THE SAFETY
GUARD
The guard is fitted with parts sup-
plied. The guard is fitted to the
front face of motor gear box sup-
port bracket by a single M6 Bolt
supplied with guard fixing plate.
OPERATING THE
MACHINE
Plug the power cable into suitable
power supply (using an extension
lead of the correct rating if neces-
sary). The use of an RCD is also
highly recommended.
Select the required speed. Do NOT
attempt to change speed while the
machine is in operation.
MAG-TEC SENSOR
The sensor detects how well the
magnet keeps the machine on the
ground. It is directly connected to
the engine.
If the sensor is illuminating
„RED“, the ground is dirty (rust,
varnish residues, chips), the
material is thinner than 6mm or
the feed rate is to high. The machi-
ne does not have a safe stand. The
engine does not start or turns off.
If the sensor is illuminating
„GREEN“, the magnetic holding
force is optimal and the use of the
machine is safe.
FITTING CUTTERS INTO
MACHINE ARBOR
Always unplug the power source
to the machine before fitting or
removing cutters or drills into the
arbour. To fit cutters loosen both
screws to permit the cutter shank
to fit fully into the arbor ensuring
the flats of the cutters are in line
with the set screws.
Start motor by pressing the green
button, at the end of drilling / cut-
ting operation press red button to
stop motor.
SECURING THE CUTTER
IN ARBOR
When cutter is fully in position
with flats lined to the screws tigh-
ten screws evenly to secure cutter
in place ready for operation.

COMPLETION OF CUT
At the end of the cut the slug will
be ejected.
Withdraw the cutter from the hole
in work piece and stop the motor
by pressing the red motor stop
button. To de-energise the magnet
switch of the magnet switch.
There will be a 3/5 second delay
before the magnet disengages
from work piece.
STARTING THE CUT
Always lower the safety guard into
position, start the motor by pres-
sing green on the motor start but-
ton, wind the cutter gently down to
the surface of work piece and
apply light pressure until the cut-
ter has made the initial cut in the
surface to a depth of around 2mm.
Apply coolant, increase the pres-
sure until the motor is loaded.
Keep work area clean. The foot-
print oft he magnet must be clean
(no chips, no rust, no dust).
DURING THE CUT
Maintain steady pressure throug-
hout the rest of the cut, always
apply coolant during cutting ope-
rations.
Too much pressure will not speed
up the cut, it will reduce the life of
cutters and may cause damage to
the motor, if swarf / shaving beco-
mes blue, add more coolant.
