stand must be secured with the supplied safety
chain (2) so that is cannot fall down if the power
supply is interrupted.

Switching on / switch-on sequence
For safety reasons, the drill can only be
switched on after the magnet has been

1. First switch on the magnet: set switch (11) to
"1". When the magnet is switched on, the indi-
cator lamp built into the switch (11) lights up.

Mounting on the workpiece
To permit the magnetic drill stand to adhere prop-
erly to material that is to be drilled, the surface
must be clean and smooth. Loose rust, dirt or
grease must be removed before mounting the
magnetic drill stand; any welding beads or surface
irregularities must be smoothened. Thin coats of
paint will not impair adhesion. Clean the magnet
block as well (12) if necessary.

After switching the magnet on, hold the handle of
the magnetic drill stand and shake it firmly to
ensure that the unit is adhering properly. If it is not,
then check the condition of the surface of the
material and that of the bottom of the magnet
block. Clean as necessary and try again.

Use on thin steel
The unit adheres best to low-carbon steel that is at
least 12 mm thick.

For drilling a hole into thin steel, a steel plate meas-
uring at least 100 x 200 x 12 mm can be secured
under the material at the place where the magnetic
stand is to be positioned.

Non-ferrous metals
To drill a hole in non-ferrous metal, the steel plate
should be secured on the surface of the material
and the magnetic drill stand then placed on the
steel plate.

Round or cambered surfaces
If you need to drill into a round or cambered
surface, then the magnet block (12) should be
positioned with its longitudinal axis parallel to the
axis of the camber.
If you need to drill into a round or cambered
surface, then the magnet block (12) should be
positioned with its longitudinal axis parallel to the
axis of the camber.
The open space between the magnet block and
the camber should be packed with steel wedges or
rods on both sides along the entire length of the
magnet block so that after switching on the
magnet as many as possible magnetic lines of
force are conducted from the magnet pole through
the wedges (or rods) and the material to the
magnet block housing.

Ensure that the steel wedges (rods) on both sides
of the magnet block are distributed such that the
axis of the drill bit is aligned directly to the centre
of curvature; otherwise it could be diverted to one
side.
