Assembly

Introduction

The T28929 2" Pipe/Tube Notcher cuts notches in

pipe and tubing to make joints that fit together per-

fectly. This notcher features a durable steel frame,

is capable of 0-45˚ angle cuts, and works with any

standard drill press or slow-speed hand drill.

To install spindle for use:

Pull pin shown in Figure 2 to release spindle.

Remove

⁄8" adapter and washer from spindle

(see Figure 2).

Figure 4. Location of spindle support hex bolts.

Attach spindle support to notcher using hex

bolts removed in Step 1.

Note: We recommend that height of spindle

support be adjusted so hole saw is as close

as possible to workpiece without touching.

This will help minimize flex in notcher.

Loosen (2) hex bolts shown in Figure 7,

adjust clamp to desired angle, then tighten

hex bolts.

Figure 7. Location of clamp angle hex bolts.

Note: For cutting steel pipe and tubing, we

recommend bi-metal hole saws. These can

be operated at up to 500 RPM for most

diameters and should be operated at higher

speeds for thin wall tubing.

Installing Hole Saw and Workpiece

Hole saws attach to the notcher by threading them

onto the end of the spindle.

To install hole saw and workpiece:

Remove (2) hex bolts shown in Figure 4 to

remove spindle support from notcher.

Place workpiece into clamp of notcher as

shown in Figure 6, then tighten clamp until

workpiece is secured.

Drill Press Operations

To use the Model T28929 with a drill press, the

notcher must be clamped securely to the drill

press base. It is important that the notcher is

secure enough so it will not twist or come off

of the table during use. To ensure square cuts,

the jig must be square to the base before being

mounted to the drill press table.

Place notcher on drill press work table and

adjust table until top of notcher spindle is

⁄2"

lower than drill chuck (see Figure 9).

Failure to align spindle flats properly with

chuck jaws may result in spindle coming

loose and damaging notcher and drill chuck.

To reduce risk of eye or face injury from

flying chips, always wear approved safety

glasses and a face shield when operating

drill press.

4. Loosen two hex bolts from Step 2 just enough

so notcher can be aligned with drill chuck.

Open drill chuck jaws and use downfeed

handles to lower chuck onto notcher spindle,

aligning chuck jaws with flats of notcher

spindle (see Figure 10). Tighten chuck jaws

to secure.

Loosen both hex bolts in Figure 8, then swiv-

el base until square to frame, then tighten hex

bolts.

8. Remove lock pin from spindle then rotate

drill chuck by hand to test how easily whole

assembly turns.

— If assembly turns with minimal effort, pro-

ceed to Step 10.

—

If assembly does not turn with minimal

effort, proceed to Step 9.

Loosen (2) hex bolts securing notcher base to

frame, rotate spindle, then tighten hex bolts,

then return to Step 8. Repeat until assembly

turns with minimal effort.

10.

Loosen bolts/clamps securing notcher to drill

press table, rotate spindle, then tighten bolts/

clamps. Spindle should turn freely.

11.

When notcher is correctly installed on drill

press (see Figure 12): remove lock pin, apply

cutting fluid, turn drill press ON, and perform

notching operation.

Failure to align spindle flats properly with

chuck jaws may result in spindle coming

loose and damaging notcher and drill chuck.

5. Remove lock pin from spindle then rotate

drill chuck by hand to test how easily whole

assembly turns.

— If assembly turns with minimal effort, pro-

ceed to Step 6.

—

If assembly does not turn with minimal

effort, adjust angle of drill until it does,

then proceed to Step 6.

With lock pin removed, apply cutting fluid,

turn drill ON, and perform notching operation.

Lubrication

During operation, the spindle bushings will require

lubrication. A few drops right before operation

will usually be adequate, but when using notcher

for long periods at a time, lubrication should be

applied several times per hour.

Figure 15. Lubrication locations.

Grease Amount

....................................Thin Coat

Lubrication Frequency

..............Before Operation

Apply a few drops of lubrication around spindle

shaft, above top bushing, and in spindle lock pin

hole (see Figure 15).

Cleaning & Protecting

Cleaning the Model T28929 is relatively easy.

Periodically brush away cuttings and debris,

especially around the spindle and bushings to

avoid scoring and binding.

Protect the notcher by wiping it clean after

every use and applying a light lubrication (see

Lubrication) to moving parts.

Before moving or storing tool, insert lock pin into

spindle to prevent movement. Store notcher cov-

ered in a dry, dust free location.

Open drill chuck jaws and place chuck onto

notcher spindle, aligning chuck jaws with flats

of notcher spindle (see Figure 14). Tighten

chuck jaws to secure.
