iv. Cutting will proceed until the prescribed depth is achieved (as defined by the
fastener selection on the Touch-Screen Display)
v. The power will be shut off, the system Water Pump will stop, and the light
on the back of the hand-tool will illuminate green.
vi. The system Vacuum Pump will continue to operate until 2 seconds after the
trigger is released.
CAUTION
Failure to establish electrical ground with the E-Drill Ground Pin on the fastener
head (or Ground Wire on the EG E-Drill) will result in a failed cut cycle. If cutting
does not occur, re-clean the fastener head and attempt to re-establish a proper
system ground between the E-Drill Grounding Pin (or the EG Grounding Clamp)
and the Fastener Head. Avoid, striking, grinding, or scraping the E-Drill CG
Ground Pin on the fastener head. Abuse will result in damage and misalignment
of the E-Drill Ground Pin and system failure.
F) Remove the E-Drill from the fastener, revealing the circular groove cut in the
fastener head.
G) If the light on the back of the E-Drill does not show green at the completion of
the cut, then the cut may not have completed successfully to depth. If the light
is showing a solid red then the likely cause is either a) bad electrical continuity
resulting from paint or other coating, or b) the fastener material is not the
same as was selected from the library. Ensure all paint or other coatings are
removed, place the E-Drill over the fastener and try again.
A flashing green light indicates the cutting electrode must be replaced. A
flashing red light indicates a system error – see the Touch-Screen Display for
details.
H) Upon completion of the cut, select a proper size hand punch and center the
punch in the fastener head. Sever the fastener head with a sharp blow on the
punch with a hammer. It may be necessary to strike the punch more than
once. If the fastener head does not separate, the fastener is most likely an
oversize stem. Select an oversize cutting electrode and setting. Re-cut the
fastener and attempt to sever the fastener head again with a punch and
hammer.
