5. With both rotations now free, align the magnetic plug to the horizontal work surface (Figure 3). Once
the magnetic plug is locked on to the horizontal surface, the bolts on the side plates can be completely
tightened down.
6. The top bolt needs to be kept loose when tapping in the horizontal orientation.
7. Now that the unit is aligned, the magnetic plug can
be removed and the desired tap can be inserted
into the chuck. The unit is now ready to be used for
horizontal tapping.
8. To get back to vertical tapping remove the tap and
re-insert the magnetic plug.
9. Loosen the bolts on the side plates, the top bolt
should already be loose, and realign the magnetic
plug to the vertical surface (Figure 4).
10. Completely tighten down the two side plate bolts
and the top bolt, which is now between the side
plates facing the rear.
11. Remove the plug and re-insert the proper tap and
begin tapping.
NOTE: The multi-positional head allows taping in additional positions. This kind of tapping doesn't
guarantee the perfect thread but will provide a good tapping quality.
