•
Before activating the machine, always check the correct function of all operational systems,
switches, magnet etc.
•
Before operating, the machine must be securely restrained to a fixed independent feature by using
safety strap and stationary rings. Affix the stationary rings into the magnet, uppermost side hole to
reduce the potential free movement. Should the magnet become detached from the work piece.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
•
Always wear approved eye protectors, ear defenders and recommended PPE when operating the
machine.
•
Disconnect from power source when changing cutters or working on the machine.
•
Cutters and swarf are sharp, always ensure that hands are adequately protected when changing
cutters or removing swarf. Use a tool or brush where necessary to remove any swarf or the cutter
from the arbor.
•
Before operating the machine, always ensure cutter-retaining screws are secured tightly.
•
Regularly clear the work area and machine of swarf and dirt, paying particular attention to the
underside of the magnet base.
•
Always remove tie, rings, watches and any loose adornments that might entangle with the rotating
machinery before operating.
•
Always ensure that long hair is securely enclosed by an approved restraint before operating the
machine.
•
Should the cutter become stuck in the work piece, stop the motor immediately to prevent personal
injury. Disconnect from power source and turn arbor to and fro. Do not attempt to free the cutter
by switching the motor on and off. Wear safety gloves to remove the cutter from the arbor.
•
If the machine is accidentally dropped, always thoroughly examine the machine for signs of damage
and check that it functions correctly before resuming drilling.
•
Regularly inspect the machine and check for any damaged or loose parts.
•
Always ensure when using the machine in an inverted position that only the minimum amount of
coolant is used and that care is taken to ensure that coolant does not enter the motor unit.
•
Cutting tools may shatter, always position the guard over the cutter before activating the machine.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
•
On completion of the cut, a slug will be ejected.
•
When not in use always store the machine in a safe and secure location.
•
Always ensure that approved WALTER agents conduct repairs.
6) OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•
Keep the inside of the cutter clear of swarf. It restricts the operating depth of the cutter.
•
Ensure that the coolant bottle contains sufficient cutting oil to complete the required operating
duration. Refill as required.
•
Occasionally depress the pilot to ensure cutting fluid is being correctly metered.
•
To start the machine, follow the control panel operation instructions. The Icecut machine is fitted
with a dual motor protection system to fully ensure safety and extended life of the motor. The
TM
ACCUDRILL
protection (found on the control panel) gives a clear and visible indication to the user
of torque being applied to the motor, once the prescribed level is reached the motor is protected by
automatic cut out. To re-start your machine, the operator will simply press the start button again
(blue tapping button should a protection mode occur during tapping). If, however the speed
controller protection is activated, this is torque sensor regulated at a pre-determined value above
