1. Select correct pilot pin and place in cutter shank from the rear, align flats on cutter shank with arbor body set
screws, insert cutter in arbor body.
2. Tighten set screws securely on cutter shank flats. NOTE: Set screws should be recessed in arbor body when tight.
3. The surface you are working on should be clean and flat, and free from rust, scale, dirt and chips.
4. Fill coolant reservoir with a water-soluble coolant.
5. Place Slugger® machine on workpiece with pilot pin over the center of hole to be drilled.
6. Connect machine to power source.
7. Lower Slugger® cutter to surface of material to be cut. Coolant will be released down the pilot into center of
Slugger® cutter. Coolant flow can be stopped by lifting pilot pin off work surface.
CAUTION!
always use safety strap. failure to do so could result in personal injury
and/or damage to the slugger® drilling machine.
8. The safety strap must be securely fastened to machine and around work being drilled. Loop strap around workpiece
and connect strap ends by attaching to D-rings on drill. Next, tighten safety strap by depressing thumb latch on cam
buckle and pulling flat end of safety strap until excess slack is removed. NOTE: Safety strap is intended only to restrain
the drill to the workpiece in the event of a power failure to the magnetic base.
9. Position chip guard toward work area before drilling.
before the cut
ready to make the cut
CAUTION!
position chip guard toward work area before drilling.
1. Move magnet switch to “I” position to engage magnet. Red lamp will illuminate to indicate power is present.
Magnet base should be firmly secured to workpiece at this time. NOTE: Thin materials may require an additional
steel plate to achieve proper magnetic adhesion.
2. Start drill motor by depressing motor “I” button.
3. Using the feed handles, advance cutter into material until cutter has established an external groove in the material.
During the remainder of the cut, apply smooth, constant pressure without overloading motor. NOTE: Slugger® cutters
are designed for uninterrupted cutting. Chips are evacuated during the cut. Do not peck drill when using Slugger®
cutters.
CAUTION!
if drill motor should stall or stop before a complete cut is made, always shut motor off
and then remove cutter from hole before attempting to restart motor.
failure to do so could result in personal injury and/or damage to the slugger® drilling machine.
1. After Slugger® cutter has finished the cut, the “slug”, or uncut center portion of material, will be expelled when
motor is returned to the full up position.
2. Return machine into full upright position and depress red motor “O” button. Wait until motor completely stops.
3. Move magnet switch to “O” position when ready to release magnetic base from work surface.
4. Residual magnetism may exist after the magnet is turned off.
