Preparation & adjustment

Assembly
WARNING : To reduce the risk of injury, turn the unit off and disconnect the machine from the power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure all switches are in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Fitting the feed handles

  1. Fit each of the three feed handles by screwing them into the hub in a clockwise direction
  2. Tighten firmly by hand

The handles are supposed to face slightly outward. Be careful not to cross- thread any of the components.

Mounting the safety guard
The safety guard protects against chippings and accidental contact and must always be mounted during operation.

  1. Hold the guard in front of the magnet, aligning the slots in the guard with the holes in the magnet.
  2. Fit the screws into the hole located in the side of the magnet.
    WARNING : Always use the Safety guard.

Fitting the lubrication system
The lubrication system can be used for horizontal drilling applications (the drill being used vertically).

  1. Hang the coolant tank (A) on the coolant tank holder
  2. Position and tighten the attachment pin (B)
  3. Connect the coolant hose (C) to the fitting on the gearbox. Make sure the hose is connected fully and tightly
  4. To disconnect the coolant hose, press the blue ring on the connection and gently pull out the hose

Fitting the safety chain

  1. Pass the safety chain through the frame grip opening;
  2. Wrap the chain around the workpiece;
  3. Securely close the chain using the lock.
    WARNING : Always use the safety chain when drilling vertically and/or upside-down. The safety chain does not replace the magnetic force of the magnetic drilling machine: it is simply used to secure against falling in the event of a magnet malfunction.

Before use

  • Please make sure that the contact surface for the permanent magnet is level, clean, and rust-free. Remove any varnish or primer. When working on materials that are not magnetizable, suitable fixation devices, obtainable as accessories from Euroboor, e. g. suction plate, vacuum plate or pipe-drilling machine must be used.
  • When working on steel materials with a material thickness of less than 6 mm, the workpiece must be reinforced with an additional steel plate to guarantee the magnetic holding power.
  • Check the machine for possible damage; Before using the machine, you must carefully check the protective components or slightly damaged components to ensure they are as intended.
  • Check that moving parts are in perfect working order, do not jam, and check whether the parts are damaged. All parts must be correctly installed and fulfill all conditions necessary to ensure perfect operation of the machine.
  • Damaged protective components must be repaired or replaced according to specifications by Euroboor or any authorized Euroboor dealer.

DO NOT use under wet conditions or in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
DO NOT let children come into contact with the machine. Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this machine.

Electrical safety

  • The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
  • Your Euroboor magnetic drilling machine is designed in class I (grounded) according to EN 61029-1. The earth wire is required.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available at Euroboor or your Euroboor dealer.

Extension cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved 3-core extension cable suitable for the power input of this machine (see technical data). The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm²; the maximum length is 30 metres. When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Useful tips

  • Try a few simple projects using scrap material until you develop a ‘’feel’’ for the magnetic drilling machine;
  • Let the machine run in for a period of eight to ten hours before starting with big operations. Do not load the machine too much during this run-in period;
  • Never use the machine with serious overload;
  • Keep the machine clear from moisture at all times to protect the machine, yourself, and others.

Using the machine

  • WARNING : Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.
  • WARNING : To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn the tool off and disconnect the tool from the power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.

Control panel
The control panel on your magnetic drilling machine is designed for maximum ease of use and safety.

  1. Motor on/off switch
  2. Magnet LED indicator

Permanent magnetic base

  • Make sure the magnetic drilling machine is placed on a smooth, clean, level and solid surface without any objects or debris to guarantee maximum adhesion.
  • The workpiece must at least be 6 mm (1/4″) thick for the magnet to stick and to drill safely. In case the workpiece is between 3 mm (1/8″) and 6 mm (1/4″), make sure to make a proper base to create a good magnetic field as shown below.
  • The permanent magnet will work best on surfaces of at least 10 mm (3/8″) thickness.

When the magnet is not able to create a good enough magnetic field, this may be caused by:

  • Surface not being flat;
  • The workpiece is not magnetizable (e.g. aluminum);
  • The workpiece is coated or painted;
  • The workpiece is not thick enough.
  • The permanent magnet has been demagnetized

We want to point out that above mentioned precautions and indicators do not guarantee that the magnet will not release from the material. Euroboor accepts no liability when it comes to the magnet not functioning or functioning poorly. Make sure that the magnet attaches tightly to the workpiece before turning on the motor unit of the magnetic drilling machine. Always use the safety chain included. Drilling above your head is extremely dangerous and is not recommended. For the use of magnetic drilling machines on pipes, not-flat or non-magnetic materials, we refer to our catalog or our website www.euroboor.com where several vacuum tightening systems, pipe clamping systems, and tube machines can be found.

Switching magnet ON/OFF

  • Activating the magnetic holding force by rotating the switch knob clockwise, the magnet LED indicator lights up in green, to indicate that the magnetic holding force is sufficient for drilling.
  • Inactivating the magnetic holding force by pressing the switch knob and rotating the switch knob counter-clockwise, the magnet LED indicator goes off, to indicate that the magnetic holding force is off.

WARNING : Do not place the permanent magnet base on hot surfaces,it could reduce the magnetic holding force and may result in permanent demagnetization of the magnet.

Switching motor On/Off
The motor unit can only be switched ON when the magnet LED indicator is activated. To switch the motor ON, press the green button with the marking “I”. To switch the motor OFF, press the red button with the marking “O”.

Tool lubrication
Horizontal applications
To use the lubrication system, the tank must be filled with a cutting lubricant.

  1. Make sure the flow regulator is closed;
  2. Unscrew the cap;
  3. Fill the container with cutting lubricant;
  4. Screw the cap back on.
  • Adjust the fluid flow as required using the flow regulator;
  • Add more cutting lubricant when the shavings (metal chips) become blue.

Vertical and overhead applications
Dip the cutter in cutting paste or apply an appropriate spray.

WARNING : Do not use the lubrication system in vertical or overhead drilling applications. Instead, use Euroboor cutting paste.
Make sure to use only suitable cutting lubricants. Euroboor offers a wide range of cutting lubricants for all tool and material combinations. Proper lubrication will help you create better and faster results, and extend the lifetime of your tools.

Working with operation tools

Annular cutters
Annular cutters only cut material at the periphery of the hole, rather than converting the entire hole to shavings. As a result, the energy required to make a hole is lower than for a twist drill. When drilling with an annular cutter, it is not necessary to drill a pilot hole.

WARNING : Do not touch the cutter or the parts close to the cutter immediately after the operation, as they may be extremely hot and cause burns to the skin. Ensure nobody is in the work area where the metal core (slug) is ejected.

Drilling conditions

  • The ease with which material can be drilled depends on several factors including tensile strength and abrasion resistance. Whilst hardness and/or strength is the usual criterion, wide variations in machinability can exist among materials showing similar physical properties.
  • The drilling conditions are dependent on requirements for tool life and surface finish. These conditions are further restricted by the rigidity of the tool and the workpiece, lubrication, and machine power available. The harder the material, the lower the cutting speed.
  • Some materials of low hardness contain abrasive substances leading to rapid cutting edge wear at high speeds. Feed rates are governed by the rigidity of set-up, the volume of material to be removed, surface finish, and available machine power.

Drilling a hole
Now that you have read the information and safety recommendations above, you are ready to start drilling. Follow these 12 steps for the best drilling result:

  1. Install the annular cutter:

    • Place the pilot pin into the cutter;
    • Align the flat faces on the cutter shank with the screws in the tool holder;
    • Make sure the cutter shank is entered fully and correctly;
    • Tighten the screws;
  2. Precisely mark the center of the hole;

  3. Use the pilot pin to position the machine in the correct position, with the tip of the pilot pin to meet the marked center of the hole;

  4. Switch on the magnet and verify that the drill is in the right position and that the machine is pushed tight against the workpiece;

  5. Put open the valve of your lubrication system to release the oil;

  6. Switch the motor on and allow it to run at the required speed;

  7. Turn the feed handles to start drilling. Apply only a slight pressure when the annular cutter touches the metal. Do not push the annular cutter with force into the metal;

  8. Apply regular pressure while drilling. The drilling performance does not improve by putting more pressure on the machine. Too much pressure will overload the motor and your annular cutter will be worn sooner;
    A continuous, non-discolored iron swarf is a sign of correct drilling speed and a well-cooled, sharp cutter. Let the cutter do the job and give it time to cut the metal!

  9. Adjust the oil supply when necessary;

  10. Apply less pressure when the drill cuts through the material. The slug will be pushed out of the cutter by the pilot pin;

  11. Turn the feed handles to put the motor in the highest position and switch off the motor unit;

  12. Remove the burrs, metal chips and clean the cutter and surface without getting injuries.

Warning
The metal slug can be sharp and very hot!

Twist drills

  1. Fit the twist drill:

    • a. Weldon shank twist drills:
      Fit a Weldon shank twist drill (such as Euroboor SPI/SSPI-series) directly to the machine;

    • b. Straight shank twist drills
      Use a Weldon drill chuck adapter (such as Euroboor IBK.14, adapter 19.05 mm (3/4″) Weldon (external) to 1/2″ x 20 UNF) to fit a drill chuck and straight shank twist drill accordingly;

  2. Precisely mark the center of the hole, and use the tip of the twist drill to position the machine in the correct position, with the tip of the twist drill to meet the marked center of the hole

Steps 3-12: see paragraph 5.1 Annular cutters. Make sure the machine runs at maximum speed for twist drills!

Countersinks
Thanks to its wide range of operating speeds, the machine can also be used for reaming or counter-sinking. Follow the steps mentioned in paragraph 5.2 Twist drills.

Maintenance

Your EUROBOOR magnetic drilling machine has been designed to operate over a long period. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

CAUTION : To reduce the risk of injury, turn the machine off and disconnect the machine from the power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure the switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Just as every magnetic drilling machine with moving parts, your EUROBOOR magnetic drilling machine also needs regular maintenance service. A few recommendations follow :

Visually check the machine for damage
The machine must be checked before operating for any signs of damage that will affect the operation of the machine. Particular notice must be taken of the main cable, if the machine appears to be damaged it should not be used. Failure to do so may cause injury or death.

Cleaning

  • Clean all dirt, dust, metal chips and burrs of your magnetic drilling machine;
  • Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and an approved dust mask;
  • Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

Operation of the machine
The machine’s operation must be checked to ensure that all components are working correctly. Replace any defective parts immediately. This prevents properly functioning parts from being damaged.

Check the permanent magnetic base
Before every operation, the magnetic base should be checked to make sure that the base is flat and there is no damage present. An uneven magnet base will cause the magnet to hold not as efficiently and may cause injury to the operator. When the machine is put out of use for a longer period, apply a small amount of machine oil to the underside of the magnetic base for rust protection. Clean the magnetic base again with next use.

Check machine grease
The gearbox grease should be checked once a month to ensure all moving components are covered to prevent wear. The grease should be changed at least once a year to ensure you gain the best from the machine.

Carbon Brushes
Brushes should be checked to make sure there is no abnormal wear present. This should be checked at least once a week if used frequently. If the carbon brush has worn more than 2/3 the original length the brushes should be changed. Failure to do so may cause damage to the machine.

Check armature
This should be checked at least once a month to check if there are visual signs of damage to the body or to the commutator. Some signs of wear will be seen on the commutator over some time this is normal as this is the part that comes in contact with the brushes but any signs of abnormal damage mean the part should be replaced.

Adjustment of slide
An essential requirement of the machine is that the slide can move in a smooth and controlled manner, free of lateral movement and vibration. This situation can be maintained by periodic adjustment of the slide and can be accomplished in the following manner:

  1. Place the machine in an upright position and, through the capstan, raise the slide to its highest position. Clean the aluminum rails and apply a small amount of light machine oil to the worn surfaces;
  2. Gently feed in the setting screw with supplied Allen key 2.5 until slight resistance is encountered. Follow your way down adjusting all setting nuts and screws;
  3. Operate the slide up and down a few times to test the movement and make any further necessary adjustments. Try to ensure that all the screws are exerting a uniform pressure on the slide from top to bottom. A perfectly adjusted slide will operate freely up and down without any sideways movement.

Lubricating the feed travel
The feed travel should be lubricated periodically with grease to ensure smooth operation.

  • Raise the motor unit to the highest position possible;
  • Lubricate the dove-tail guideway at both sides;
  • Lubricate the gear rack.

After repeated use, the gear rack may become loose. If necessary, adjust the self-locking set screws at the left side. Tighten screws in series until the gear rack moves freely in the dove-tail guideway but does not allow the motor to wobble.

Repair, modification, and inspection

  • Repair, modification, and inspection of EUROBOOR Magnetic drilling machines must be done by EUROBOOR or an EUROBOOR authorized dealer. The spare parts list will be helpful if presented with the machine to the EUROBOOR dealer for service when requesting repair or other maintenance.
  • EUROBOOR machines are constantly being improved and modified to incorporate the latest technological advancements. Accordingly, some parts (i.e. part numbers and/or design) may be changed without prior notice. Also, due to EUROBOOR’s continuing program of research and development, the specifications of machines are subject to change without prior notice.

WARNING : Since accessories, other than those offered by EUROBOOR, have not been tested with this machine, the use of such accessories with this tool could be hazardous. To reduce the risk of injury, only EUROBOOR-recommended accessories should be used with this machine.
Consult your dealer for further information on the appropriate accessories.
