B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L 3 Chapter Operations Note THOROUGHLY READ THROUGH THE ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THIS MACHINE! PURPOSE Ø The purpose of the BRM-60 is to drill through steel using annular cutters or standard twist drill bits. Ø These drills are designed to magnetically adhere to a ferrous surface using their electromagnetic base. Generally these drills are designed and used to drill through mild steel. This magnetic base will not work without a power connection.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L Ø This machine has one primary adjusting point for the travel between the magnetic base frame and the drill rail. The main way to increase or decrease the users ability to move the drill by hand is with this system. These are the black hex bolts on the side of the machine that have a locking nut around them. These are generally used to tighten up the travel as the brass slides wear over time. Be mindful to evenly adjust these so that the travel is even and smooth.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE Ø When transporting the machine, always use the carrying handle. Ø Ensure the drilling head is at the lowest position. Ø DO NOT transport the machine with cutters or bits in the tool holder or adapters. Ø If the coolant bottle is connected, ensure the valve is in the “off” position or the coolant has been drained. Ø If transporting inside a vehicle, it is recommended to transport it on its side so as to avoid the item falling over.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L o Ø If drilling overhead or horizontal use cutting paste liberally applied to the cutting bit. If using the machine horizontally with the oil bottle, connect bottle to the side of the machine using the two set screws located on the drill frame. o Connect the oil bottle tube into the side of the tool holder by firmly pressing in the hose. § o Make sure the oil bottle valve is in the off position.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L o NOTE: Do not force the hole. Let the machine do most of the work. Excessive physical effort should be avoided as it can cause damage to the machine or the user. o If the unit jams in a hole, stop the drill immediately to prevent injury. Disconnect the drill from the power supply and loosen the cutter by turning drill spindle counterclockwise. Never attempt to free cutter by starting motor! Ø Make sure to keep the cutting material adequately lubricated.
B R M - 6 0 M A G Ø D R I L L Tighten one of the hex screws while slowly rotating the cutter forward and backwards. o Continue to tighten the screw until fully tightened. nd Ø Tighten the 2 hex screw. Ø The annular cutter is ready to use.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L 4 Chapter Troubleshooting Note SERVICING SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DON’T FORGET TO UNPLUG POWER TO UNIT PRIOR TO SERVICE! PROBLEM Motor does not turn on. SOLUTION 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) Motor turns on when the magnet is turned on. Excessive sparking when motor is running. 1) 1) 2) Magnetic does not hold to work area. Hole is not cutting. Magnet not turned on. Magnet has to be engaged prior to motor working.
B R M - 6 0 M A G D R I L L 5 Chapter General Maintenance Ø Inspect electrical cords and electrical connections. Ø Keep machine clean and free of debris. Ø Check for misalignment, binding and breakage of all moving parts. If damaged, repair tool before use. Ø Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Sharp cutters are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Occasional Maintenance Ø Have the power tool serviced by a qualified service technician using identical replacement parts.
