COOLANT / LUBRICANT FLOW.
Note: It is recommended that a Soluble Oil is used as other
coolants/lubricants may have a high viscosity and may not
flow easily to the cutter.
Ensure that the Coolant/Lubrication bottle is filled with
suitable Coolant/Lubrication liquid and that the ON/OFF tap is
in the ON position.
• Ensure that the work piece is flat, clean and free from any
rust, coatings or other contamination.
• Position the machine onto the work piece.
• Connect the plug into a mains supply socket and switch on
at the socket. (UK only)
• Energise the magnetic base by operating the Magnet
‘ON/OFF’ switch.
The machine should now be firmly attached to the mild steel plate.
Before commencing the cutting operation check that there is
sufficient Coolant/Lubrication flow at the cutter.
To ensure Coolant/Lubrication flow:
• Loosen the Coolant/Lubrication bottle cap. This will
prevent a vacuum being created that will stop the Coolant/
Lubrication fluid from flowing.
• Gently squeeze the Coolant/Lubrication bottle to force the
Coolant/Lubrication through to the cutter.
• Lower the cutting head towards the work piece until the
cutter teeth touch the work piece and the pilot pin is
depressed, then raise the cutting head.
• Continue this process until the Coolant/Lubrication fluid is
flowing onto the work piece.
