66132 Slag Removal Tool for use on laser cutting machines with
minimum 1.25” between slats
1. Description
The tool is moved along the slats on the bed of a laser machine to remove slag that accumulates while
cutting. Rotary cutting tools ride on each side of the slat to lift and remove the slag. It may be used on
steel, copper or hybrid steel/copper slats. When not in use it may be rolled along the floor and stored in
the upright position.

2. Specifications
Voltage 120V 60 Hz single phase
Current 7 Amp max
Weight 44 pounds
Overall Length 92”
Slat Thickness 11 to 12 ga
Slat Length 49-80”
Min spacing between slats 1.25”

Replacement Cutters
 66145 RH Cutter
 66146 LH Cutter

3. Initial Assembly
The Slag Hog ships in two pieces; power unit and the handle assembly. All fasteners are metric.
 Remove the acorn nuts and button head socket screw from the 1.36” diameter stub on the
power unit
 Slide the handle on the stub with the power out cord of the handle on the same side as the
plug in on the power unit.
 Plug the power cord into the power unit
 Do not plug in to power before verifying the switches on the handle and power unit are off: red
palm button pushed in and rocker switch to 0.
4. Operation
Before plugging into power verify that the two switches are turned off
Wear work gloves and safety glasses when operating
Lift onto the machine with care
Use extreme care near the cutters. Do not touch them unless the tool is unplugged
The tool has two on/off switches

Red push button. Push in to turn off Rocker Switch on power unit in off position. Circuit
breaker reset switch

Both switches must be in on position to run. Turning either switch off stops motor operation.

The upper right picture shows the white reset button for the circuit breaker. If the slats are not straight it is
possible for the cutters to grab onto two slats and stall the motor which will trip the breaker. If this occurs
wait a minute, reset the breaker, and resume operation. When slats have a lot of slag build up it may
cause the circuit breaker to overload. If this happens the operator will need to reduce force used for
cleaning slats. If this occurs wait a minute, reset the breaker, and resume operation.

To begin use, place the tool on the slat bed of the laser machine

With switches off plug tool in Cutters shown centered on slat

To see the unit in operation, go to Youtube and search for Slaghog. The best video is:

The cutter geometry is ideal for most slat/pallet bed configurations. If the fit of the cutters slats does not seem
correct contact the factory to find out options that are available.

5. Maintenance
Disconnect power by unplugging from outlet before performing any work on the tool

5.1 Cutters
The cutters will dull over time and require replacement.
