steel or copper. Not to be used in wet areas or outside.
WARNING
2.2 Mains Connection
Connect only to single-phase AC voltage as indicated on the rating sticker. Plug-in receptacle to have

Warning
The Vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized
test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary
assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However, if the tool is used for
different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may
significantly increase the exposure level over the working period.
An estimation of level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off
or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total
working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibrations such as: maintain the tool
and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.

2.5 Symbols
Caution! Warning! Danger!
Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying out
any instructions
Please read the instructions carefully before starting the
machine.
Tool uses protective earth and must be plugged into grounded
outlet
3. Description
The tool is moved along the slats on the bed of a laser machine to remove slag that accumulates while
cutting. Rotary cutting tools ride on each side of the slat to lift and remove the slag. It may be used on
steel, copper or hybrid steel/copper slats. When not in use it may be rolled along the floor and stored in
the upright position.
4. Initial Assembly
The Slag Hog ships in two pieces; power unit and the handle assembly. All fasteners are metric.
 Remove the nuts and button head socket screw from the 1.36” diameter stub on the power
unit.
 Slide the handle on the stub with the power out cord of the handle on the same side as the
plug in on the power unit.
 Plug the power cord from handle tube into the power unit
WARNING
 Do not plug into power outlet before verifying the switches on the handle and power unit are
off; both rocker switches to 0.
5. Operation
The tool must be plugged into a receptacle with a grounded outlet
Before plugging into power verify that the two switches are turned off
Wear work gloves and safety glasses when operating
Lift onto the cutting machine bed with care
WARNING Use extreme care near the cutters. Do not touch them unless the tool is unplugged.

The tool has two on/off switches
Rocker switch on handle end, in off position,
acts as circuit breaker reset in case of over-
current
Rocker Switch on power unit in off position.
Both switches must be in ON or “l” position to run. Turning either switch OFF (“0” position) stops motor
operation.
The upper left picture shows the on/off switch that acts as the circuit breaker when the unit is overworked.
If the slats are not straight it is possible for the cutters to grab onto two slats and stall the motor which will
trip the breaker. If this occurs wait a minute, reset the breaker switch, and resume operation. When slats
have excess slag build up it may cause the circuit breaker to overload. If this happens the operator will
need to reduce force used for cleaning slats. If this occurs, reset the breaker, and resume operation.
To begin use, place the tool on the slat bed of the laser machine, center the cutters over a slat, and turn
on both switches. Cutter rotation will pull the tool down on the slats. The slats can be cleaned by moving
the tool in either direction along the slat.
With switches off, plug tool into a power outlet with appropriate current capacity to accept value given on
machine label or as shown above in the Technical Data table.

To see the unit in operation, go to Youtube and search for Slaghog. The best video is:

The cutter geometry is ideal for most slat/pallet bed configurations. If the fit of the cutters on the slats
does not seem correct contact the factory to find out options that are available.
When storing in upright position the unit is unstable and care must be taken to ensure that it does not fall
over, which may lead to damage of handle end components. Damage due to dropping, improper
handling, or falling over is not covered by warranty.

6. Maintenance
WARNING Disconnect power by unplugging from outlet before performing any work on the
tool
6.1 Cutters
The cutters will wear over time and require replacement.
Tools required for replacement
 6mm L hex wrench
 6mm male hex socket wrench
 Adjustable open wrench
Replacement Cutters
 66145 SET– 11-12ga Slats
Parts required are RH & LH Cutter Set with SHCS M8xcap screws. Replacement cutters come with
two M8 x 22 cap screws and Blue Loctite 242.
Place the tool on its back with the cutters up.
Place the wrenches as shown and remove the right cutter cap screw with counterclockwise rotation.
Remove the right cutter. The cutter may be tight on the shaft and will require light tapping with a
hammer to remove.

Place adjustable wrench on flats of right shaft and remove left cutter with counterclockwise rotation.
Slide the new right hand and the left-hand cutters so that the flats between the shaft are facing the
base plate as shown. The cutters rotate so that the slag chips are pulled up toward the base plate.
The cutters must be installed as shown.
Apply Loctite 242 to the cap screw threads. With washers in place, thread then tighten cap screws
into shaft ends using the male hex socket wrench and L hex wrench approach.

Unthread and remove Brush Caps from motor
Remove old brushes and install new and thread caps back in place
