TWIST DRILLING (All models except Semi-Auto Feed models)
1. First mount the Chuck to the Chuck adaptor.
2. Then push up on the Quick-Release Collar. Insert the Chuck Adaptor
into the Tool Holder and turn until the Quick-Release Collar snaps
down.
3. Always double check to ensure that the Quick-Release Tool Holder is
fully locked.
4. Insert the twist drill into the Chuck and tighten with the chuck key.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR SEMI-AUTO FEED MODELS:
WARNING: NEVER attempt to use machine in auto feed mode when using twist drills. THIS WILL RESULT
IN MAGNET LIFTING.
WARNING: NEVER use poor quality, incorrect sized or dull cutters in auto feed mode. THIS MAY RESULT
IN MAGNET LIFTING.
The Auto-Feed Feature
A lever incorporated into the feed handle engages or disengages the feed drive gears. If the auto-feed mode is
not engaged, the machine may be used in the same fashion as the manual machine as described above. Below
are the additional instructions needed to operate in auto-mode.
IMPORTANT: When in manual mode, the three lever handles will be pointing outward slightly (out).
When in auto-feed mode, the lever handles will be parallel with the side of the machine (in).
NOTE: Do not operate the auto machine banked to one side in the plane of the lever as this may allow
the machine to slip into or out of auto-feed mode unexpectedly.
WARNING: Do not attempt to drill a work piece which is thicker than the maximum cutting depth of the
cutter being used. Never exceed 30mm diameter cutters when using auto-feed mode.
THE FEED RANGE SELECTOR
There is a 3-position range selector switch on the switch panel which allows ideal feed rate for various sized
cutters. Select the feed range which corresponds to the cutter diameter being used.
