Setting Up Your Machine

Table Assembly Installation

Step #1

Note:

Table Slide Stop

Release
Handles

Grasping the Table and depressing the Release
Handles to unlock the Table Pin, slide the V-Bars
located on the underside of the Table into the
V-Rollers on the Base of the machine as shown.

Please note that one of the Table Stops (EZ-1014) comes
installed. Make sure when installing the Table onto the
Base you are sliding it from right to left (while facing the
machine) to avoid obstruction from the pre-installed Table
Stop.

V-Bars

Table Pin

Fork Plate

V-Rollers

Underside of Table

Cam Spacers

Note:

Step #2

Please note that, although they are factory set, you may have to adjust the cams on the
V-Rollers if the Table is too tight or too loose

after installation. If so, remove the Table.
With an open-end wrench and holding the screw head in place with a screwdriver, adjust
the cam spacers under the V-Rollers. If the Table is too tight, adjust the V-Rollers out
towards the edge of the Fork Plate (EZ-1000). If the Table is too loose, adjust the
V-Rollers in toward the center of the Fork Plate.

Attach the second Table Stop (EZ-1014) to the
underside of the table using two 1/4” lock washers
and two 10-32 Elastic Stop Nuts as shown. Tighten
with a wrench until secure.

Setting Up Your Machine

Backgauge Assembly

Step #3

Step #4

Assemble the Backgauge by placing the Black Fiber Washer (EBM-76) over the Threaded
Stud. Place the Clamp Bracket (EZ-1028) on the Threaded Stud with the knob end
toward the center of the assembly. Tighten the Elastic Stop Nut on the Threaded Stud
with a wrench until it is snug, allowing the Clamp Bracket to move with slight resistance.

Threaded Stud

Black Fiber Washer

Clamp Bracket & 1/4” Knob

5/16”-18 Elastic Stop Nut

Attach the Backguage to the Table by hooking the left
end over the Side Iron (FM4-4003) on the side as shown
in the accompanying picture. Align both ends of the
Backgauge using the Table Scales (3S-14) so that it is
squared correctly. When it is positioned as desired
tighten down the Clamp Bracket Knob as shown.

Note:

Do not position the Backgauge too close to the hollow drill bit
so that it touches. This can cause serious damage to the
hollow drill bit causing it to break or shatter.
must be at least 1/8” from the circumference of the hollow drill
bit.

Paper Side Stops

Step #5

Attach the Paper Side Stops (FM4-4006) using two
Side Stop Screws (FM4-4007) each. Position the
Paper Side Stop as desired and tighten down with
light pressure.

Chip Bag

Step #6

Note:

Be sure to empty the chip bag regularly as needed. Failure
to empty the chip bag can result in clogging of the chip
chute.

Pattern Bars

Step #7

Attach the chip bag as shown by stretching the
open end over the top hook of the chip chute.
Continue fitting it around the entire edge of the chip
chute making sure it is snug.

Your EBM-2.1 comes with five pattern bars
included. Four common patterns and one blank
pattern as shown.

2-3/4

3-1/2

2-3/4

4-1/4

Blank (Customizable)

3 holes 2-3/4” apart center to center

3 holes 3-1/2” apart center to center

2 holes 2-3/4” apart center to center

3 holes 4-1/4” apart center to center
(standard three ring binder)

Insert a Pattern Bar by loosening the Pattern Bar
Stop (EZ-1022) and inserting the desired pattern
into the slot on the Pattern Bar Guide as shown in
the diagram. Insert the angled end into the slot as
far as it will go so that the slot at the end of the
Pattern Bar lines up with the Pattern Bar Stop.
When you have the pattern correctly inserted,
tighten down the Pattern Bar Stop through the slot
on the Pattern Bar locking it in place.

Electrical Start Up

Step #8

Making sure nothing is interfering with the drill bit,
plug the cord set into a grounded 115V outlet. To
turn the machine on, press the Rocker Switch on the
upper left hand side of the shroud.

Your Spinnit Paper Drill is now ready for use. With proper operation and
maintenance, it will give you trouble free operation for years.

Drill bit Removal and Installation

Step #1

Step #2

Note:

Remove the hole guard which is attached to the chuck. This
is done by grasping the bent end and sliding the guard off.

Using the Chuck Release Key (EBM-32), insert the tapered
end facing down into the chuck hole. With a clockwise motion
turn the Chuck Release Key 45 degrees. The drill bit will slide
out of the chuck. It is recommended that you hold onto the
drill bit so that it does not drop out of the chuck damaging the
tip.

Please note that drill bits may be hot after drilling. Please wait to
change drill bits until they have cooled down.

Step #3

Step #4

To install a drill bit, grasp the drill bit, and being careful to keep
it straight, press it up into the chuck.

Seat the drill bit by using a stack of scrap paper or a phone
book. Set the scrap on the table as shown and pull lightly
down on the handle to raise the table toward the drill bit. Put
light pressure on the hollow drill bit seating it firmly in place.
Remove the scrap paper and turn the machine on to check the
concentricity of the bit. If the bit is not concentric, remove it
and repeat steps 3 and 4 until it is concentric. When the drill
bit is correctly installed replace the hole guard back onto the
chuck to protect debris from clogging the chuck.

Leveling The Drill Bits

Step #6:

Note:

Drilling

Step #7:

To level the drill bits to the Table, first loosen the
Leveling Knob on the right hand side of the machine
as shown. Pull down on the Handle to raise the Table
until the hollow drill bit is just touching the Drill Strip
(EBM2-1034). Hold the Handle in place and tighten
down the Leveling Knob until it hits the Handle
Bracket. This will stop the Handle from being pulled
down too far. It is important to always reset the Level
with each use. This will make sure you don’t drill into
the Drill Strip, dulling the hollow drill bit.

We recommend using a piece of card stock on the Table
when leveling the drill bits to avoid drilling int
This will lengthen the life of your drill bits and keep them
sharper.

o the drill strip.

When you are ready to drill, set the product to be
drilled on the table and make sure it is secure using
the Paper Side Stops. Turn the machine on and
holding the product firmly in place with one hand, pull
down on the Handle raising the Table up to meet the
drill bit. Using one consistent smooth stroke, put
pressure on the Handle so that the Table rises fully
allowing the drill bit to drill through the product. It is
important you maintain a consistent speed through
the entire stack. It is also important you do not go too
slow or too fast. If you drill too slow you can burn the
paper leaving undesired marks. If you drill too fast,
the drill bits will act more like a punch and they will
break or plug.

Traversing the EZ-Glide Table

Step #8:

To move the Table to the next desired hole on the
pattern bar, press in on either of the Release Handles
(EZ-1010) located on both ends of the table. Press­ing in the Release Handle releases the Table Pin
allowing the table to traverse. Release the Handle
and slide the Table until it locks into place in the next
desired position. Repeat Steps #7 and #8 as desired
until complete.

Clearing the Chips

Step #8:

Note:

Note:

The CC-2 Chip Clearer was designed for use on drill bits
3/16” in diameter and higher.

Make sure that if you remove the drill bit to clear the chips
you should never force the chips down through the tip of the
drill bit. Chips should always be cleared in the same direc
tion as when drilling.

It is important to clear the chips from the drill bit when
you are finished drilling so that the chips won’t clog
the drill bit. Make sure to turn the power off on the
machine. Place the Chip Clearer (CC-2) below the
hollow drill bit using one of the three prongs that best
fits the drill bit size you are drilling with. Making sure
it is properly aligned with the drill bit, pull down on the
handle with very slight pressure allowing the Chip
Clearer to push the remaining chips up through the
drill bit and into the Chip Chute.

Tips On Drilling

Use a sharp bit at all times...Using a drill bit sharpener (Lassco-WIzer MS-1 recom­mended), sharpen your drill bits regularly. Apply light pressure when sharpening. Too
much pressure may cause flaring of the tip. (Once a drill bit has a flared tip, it becomes
defective.)

Chip Clearer

-

Sharpening Stone...Use to debur the outside cutting edge of the drill bits for better perfor­mance.

Lubricate drill bits occasionally...use Drill-Ease or Spin-Eze. While the drill is running,
simply touch the Drill-Ease stick to the drill bit or brush on the Spin-Eze. Drill through scrap
to remove any excess. This will allow for a smoother cut.

Drill Strips...When drilling, a drill bit must stop slightly above the drill strip. Replace worn
out drill strips regularly to ensure proper drilling.
