11) MAGNET DETECTION

It is advised that when working on thin material a packing piece should be used to increase the
material thickness under the magnet. Working on thin material without a packing piece will reduce
the magnet holding force.
It is advised that the drill is to be operated on ferrous material 12mm thick and above. Damage to
the magnet base, such as pitting, will affect the strength of the magnet holding force.

12) EXTENSION CABLE SELECTION

The machines are factory fitted with a 9 ¾ feet length of cable having three conductors 14AWG
LIVE, NEUTRAL and EARTH. If it becomes necessary to fit an extension cable from the power
source, care must be taken in using a cable of adequate capacity. Failure to do so will result in a
loss of traction by the magnet and a reduction of power from the motor.
Assuming a normal AC supply of the correct voltage, it is recommended that the following
extension lengths shall not be exceeded:
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE CHANGING CUTTERS.

13) MOUNTING OF CUTTERS

 The machine has been made to accept cutters having 19.05mm (3/4") dia. Weldon shanks.
The following procedure is to be used when mounting cutters:
 With the machine in the upright position, ensure the Arbor Assembly (48H590) is fully
inserted into Arbor Spindle (48H596).
 Take appropriate pilot and place through the hole in cutter shank. Insert shank of cutter
into bore of Arbor Assembly, ensuring alignment of two drive flats with socket screws.
 Tighten both screws using hexagon key.
