Description

This magnetic drill includes the coolant reservoir, safety strap, chip extractor, three centering pins, and a heavy-duty carrying case.

Product Overview

The Fein JMU137-2QW magnetic drill delivers 1,100 W of power and drills up to 1-3/8 in. in steel. Its HIGH POWER motor with tachometer-controlled speed regulation keeps rotation speed stable, even under heavy load, for reliable industrial drilling.

The 2-speed gearbox lets you switch between twist drill bits and annular cutters without changing tools. The 2136 lbs (9,500 N) magnetic force provides a secure hold on any steel surface, even in vertical or overhead positions.

This industrial magnetic drill press features a tilt sensor that shuts off the motor if the machine slips, plus a built-in coolant reservoir that extends annular cutter life. The Memory function retains the selected rotation speed between uses.

  • 2136 lbs (9,500 N) magnetic holding force
  • Tool-free cutter change
  • Reversible left/right feed handle
  • Built-in tilt sensor
  • Heavy-duty carrying case included

This magnetic drill press is ideal for structural steel fabrication, industrial construction, and heavy machinery maintenance. FREE SHIPPING on orders over $150.

Recommended Complementary Accessories

To maximize the life of your magnetic drill, the following accessories are sold separately:

Care and Usage

First Use

Before first use, follow these steps to prepare your magnetic drill:

  1. Check the cord and housing - Inspect the power cord and housing for damage before plugging in the drill.
  2. Fill the coolant reservoir - Fill the supplied coolant reservoir to protect the annular cutter from the first drilling operation.
  3. Attach the safety strap - Secure the safety strap to the workpiece before drilling in vertical, horizontal, or overhead positions.
  4. Install the cutter - Insert the annular cutter or twist drill bit into the 3/4 in. Weldon shank using the tool-free quick-change system.

Regular Maintenance

Regular maintenance extends the magnetic drill's service life and keeps drilling precision consistent.

After each use:

  • Wipe down the housing and magnetic base to remove chips and cutting residue
  • Empty and clean the coolant reservoir
  • Store the drill in its carrying case

Magnetic base care:

  • Keep the magnetic base surface free of rust and chips for optimal magnetic force
  • Check that the work surface is clean and paint-free before each setup

Cleaning and Maintenance

Recommended periodic maintenance:

  1. Motor cleaning - Remove metal dust from ventilation openings with low-pressure compressed air.
  2. Carbon brush check - Have carbon brushes inspected by an authorized Fein service center based on usage.
  3. Feed system lubrication - Apply a thin layer of lubricant to the feed handle rack for smooth movement.

Safety Precautions

For your safety:

  • Non-magnetic work surface - Avoid using the drill on a surface that won't hold the magnet, as the setup would not be secure.
  • Removing the cutter before full stop - Wait for the spindle to come to a complete stop before removing the cutter or chips.
  • Drilling without the safety strap - Never drill overhead or in elevated positions without securing the supplied safety strap.
  • Motor overload - Avoid forcing the cutter feed; the motor's tachometer regulation signals excessive resistance.

Storage Tips

Short-term storage:

  • Store the drill in its case, away from moisture, between job sites

Long-term storage:

  • Fully empty the coolant reservoir and store in a dry location at a stable temperature

Winter storage in Canada:

  • Avoid storing the drill in an unheated area where the coolant fluid could freeze; drain the reservoir before winter

Frequently Asked Questions - Fein JMU137-2QW Magnetic Drill

What is the maximum drilling capacity of the Fein JMU137-2QW magnetic drill?

The JMU137-2QW drills up to 1-3/8 in. (35 mm) diameter with an annular cutter, to a depth of 2 in. (50 mm). With a twist drill bit, maximum capacity is 5/8 in. (16 mm). The 2-speed gearbox adjusts rotation speed based on the bit type used.

What is the difference between this magnetic drill and a standard drill press?

Unlike a fixed drill press, the JMU137-2QW moves directly onto the workpiece thanks to its 2136 lbs (9,500 N) magnetic base. It drills in vertical, horizontal, or overhead positions, making it ideal for job sites where the workpiece cannot be brought to the shop.

Is this magnetic drill compatible with annular cutters from other brands?

The 3/4 in. Weldon shank on the JMU137-2QW is an industry standard compatible with most Weldon-shank annular cutters, in addition to Fein Slugger cutters. See our 1-3/8 in. Fein carbide cutter for an example of a compatible diameter.

What's included with the JMU137-2QW magnetic drill?

The kit includes the drill, a coolant reservoir, a safety strap, a chip extractor, three centering pins, and a carrying case. Annular cutters and replacement cutting fluid are sold separately.

What warranty covers this magnetic drill?

Fein provides a 1-year base warranty, extendable to 3 years under the FEIN PLUS warranty by registering the tool within 3 months of purchase. Équipement Industriel Polar also offers a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on all purchases.

How do I maintain the magnetic base of the drill?

Keep the base surface free of rust, paint, and metal chips to maintain the full 2136 lbs magnetic holding force. Wipe the base after each use and check that the work surface is clean before each setup.

Can this magnetic drill be used outdoors in cold Canadian winters?

Yes, the JMU137-2QW is built for job site use, but the coolant fluid can freeze below 0°C (32°F). Drain the reservoir before winter storage and check that the safety strap remains properly secured in cold conditions.

What is the motor power of the JMU137-2QW?

The Fein HIGH POWER motor draws 1,100 W and delivers 550 W of output power, with tachometer-controlled speed regulation that keeps rotation speed stable even under heavy drilling load.
