SAFETY INSTRUCTION continued
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Always wear approved eye protection during operation. Use safety glasses or goggles which conform to
BSEN136 or CE equivalent that provide protection from the front and side. The operator of the Mag Drill
is responsible for following accepted eye, face, respiratory, hearing and body protection.
Always ensure that all long hair and loose clothing, ties, scarves, jewellery, etc., are secured or removed.
Always consult a doctor if numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the skin occurs. Repetitive work
motions, awkward positions and exposure to vibration can cause “Repetitive Strain Injuries”.
SPECIFIC OPERATING HAZARDS
The pillar drill must only be used on metal plate with a minimum thicknes of 6mm.
Always ensure the electric cable is not damaged before connecting the Mag Drill to the electricity
supply.
Always use recommended attachments or parts and make sure that they are kept sharp and fitted
correctly, that all the securing bolts are tight and the guard is fitted and operating correctly and that the
chuck key and any other adjustment tools have been removed.
When drilling use the correct cutting lubricant/coolant for the material being drilled. Use only sufficient
to prevent the drill from overheating and make sure that it is kept well away from electrical components.
Never use water as a coolant.
When drilling long lengths ensure that there is adequate support at both ends of the material.
Never use the machine without the safety guard in position and operating correctly.
Always secure the workpiece with suitable clamps.
Warning: Be aware that swarf can be very sharp, hot and can fly off the rotating drill. When handling swarf
always wear suitable gloves. Swarf should not be disposed of with domestic waste, it should be disposed
of at a recycling centre.
Never leave the mag drill connected to the electric supply when unattended.
Always switch off using the on/off switch when not in use.
Never use the Drill without the guard attached.
Never deface the rating plate on the drill.
Never make any alterations to the Drill and only use it for the task for which it has been designed.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
In the United Kingdom, the ELECTRICITY AT WORK ACT 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if
used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at
least once a year. The HEALTH & SAFETY AT WORK ACT 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances
responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and the safety of its operator. If in any doubt about
electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be fitted in the mains electricity distribution board. If the
power supply is not protected by an RCCB, it is highly recommended that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is
used with all portable electrical products.
PLUG FITTING
A moulded UK 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is already fitted for your safety.
If it becomes damaged, and needs replacing, cut off the plug and prepare the
wires. Use the following instructions:
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal marked either
‘ E’ or with the earth symbol‘ ’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal marked ‘ L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal marked ‘ N’.
d) After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly
connected, that the cable external insulation extends beyond the cable
restraint and that the restraint is tight.
EXTENSION REELS
When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before being
connected. Use at least 1.5mm2 section cable or to be absolutely sure use 2.5mm2
section cable.

MAINTENANCE
The drill requires very little maintenance apart from keeping all unpainted surfaces coated in light oil.
Keep the machine clear of swarf which should be disposed of in a proper manner and not put into
domestic refuse bins.
Always inspect and check the set up and adjustments before using the machine.

DRILL POSITIONING
Mark the position of holes to be
drilled with a centre punch prior to
putting the Drill into position.
Insert a small pilot drill into the
drill and lower until it’s point is in
line with the bottom of the base.
Place the drill into position above
the mark left by the centre punch
then switch on the magnet with
rocker switch (a) to hold in
position.
DRILLING
Check the position of the pilot drill
above the mark and then switch
the Drill on by pressing the Green
Button (b). If required, turn on the
tap to supply coolant. Wind the
drill down using the handle in the
direction of arrow (c) and apply
gentle pressure to start the drilling
process.
IMPORTANT:
Let the drill do the work, do not
use excessive force as this may
damage the Drill and or the bit.
When you have drilled the hole,
back out, rotating the handle in the
direction of arrow (e) and switch
off the drill by pressing the Red
button (d). Replace the pilot drill
with the correct size bit for the
hole you require and then drill the
hole slowly so as not to create
excessive heat and blunt the bit.
For larger holes, you may need to
drill with an intermediate sized bit
before the correct sized one in
order to stop the bit binding in the
hole whilst the hole is drilled.

Caution! This Drill is heavy, take care when unpacking.
Remove the Drill, together with the accessories supplied,
from the packaging. Check carefully to ensure that the Drill
is in good condition and account for all the items listed on
page 5 of this manual. Also make sure that all the parts
are complete. If any parts are found to be missing or
damaged, the Drill and its accessories should be returned
together in their original packaging to the retailer. Do not
throw the packaging away, keep it safe throughout the
guarantee period, then recycle if possible, otherwise
dispose of it by the proper means. Do not let children play
with empty plastic bags due to the risk of suffocation.
The Drill comes ready assembled but it is advisable to
check mounting screws to make sure they are tight before
use.
FITTING THE CHUCK
If not already attached, screw the chuck onto the thread on
the Weldon adaptor. Loosen the grub screws in the drill
shank then insert the Weldon adaptor into the drill spindle
as shown in Fig. 2. Tighten both Grub screws with the
Hexagon key supplied. Fig.3
FITTING THE GUARD Position the white nylon guard
over the end of the magnet base as shown and secure in
place with the hexagon grub screws and wing nuts as
shown in Fig. 4

SECURING THE DRILL (Fig.5)
When working horizontally or overhead, the Drill should
always be secured using a safety strop or the chain
supplied. The safety securing chain has a spring carabine
hook to facilitate anchoring the drill either direct to the
steelwork or to a webbing strop.
Remember - the drill must only be used on steel with a
thickness of 6mm or above.
COOLANT SUPPLY
The Drill comes complete with a gravity feed coolant bottle.
The pipe fits directly into the fitting on the side of the
Weldon Adaptor a shown in Fig. 6. The bottle has a wire
hook around the neck for attaching to the top of the slide as
shown in Fig.7 or suspended from the securing chain as
shown in Fig.7a when the drill is being used in the
horizontal plane on steelwork as it needs to be kept above
the working position of the drill.
