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. Determine correct cutting speed for application, move gear box shift lever by lifting outward then repositioning to
desired speed.
CAUTION!
never change gears with motor running. doing so can result in personal injury and/or damage to the machine.
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. NOTE: Be sure coolant valve is open.
Regulate coolant flow by adjusting coolant valve on left side of mainframe.
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 work piece
and connect strap ends by attaching to D-rings on drill. NOTE: Safety strap is intended only to restrain the drill to the
work piece 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 “ON” position. Switch will illuminate to indicate power is present– magnetic base should be
firmly secured to workpiece at this time. Thin materials may require an additional steel plate to achieve proper
magnet adhesion.
2. Start drill motor by depressing green motor “ON” button.
3. Using the feed handles advance cutter into material until Slugger cutter has established an external groove in the
material, During the remainder of 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 acomplete cut is made, always 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. note: this machine’scircuitry will automatically shut the drill motor off if magnetic base is separated from its
work surface. if your machine requires adjustment, contact jancy’sservice department.
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 “OFF” button, wait until motor completely stops.
3. Move magnet switch to “OFF” position when ready to release magnetic base from work surface.
