SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• See “Safety Instructions” manual, supplied with this instruction manual.
• Warning! When drilling in amianthus/asbestos and/or silica stone, the dust produced is extremely harmful to your health. Wear protection against inhalation of this dust, in compliance with current regulations on accident prevention. Follow the insurance company’s safety instructions regarding the responsibility of employees.
• For your personal safety, always connect the machine to a mains supply protected by a differential and thermal cut-out switch, in accordance with regulations on low-voltage wiring sitemaps.
• Do not perforate the machine casing, as this would destroy the protective insulation (use adhesive labels).
• Always unplug the machine before doing any work on it.
• Warning! Before each use, inspect the plug and lead. Should they need replacing, have this done by an offi-
cial service centre. Only plug the machine in when it is switched off.
• Always keep the lead out of the machine’s working area.
• Only plug the machine in when it is switched off.
• Do not allow the machine to get wet, nor should it be used in wet environments.
• When using the machine, always wear safety goggles, gloves and non-slip footwear, and it is advisable to wear ear protection.
• Do not touch the bit during or immediately after working, as it becomes very hot and can cause serious burns.
• Hold the machine firmly by the handle and the auxiliary handle, otherwise the recoil produced could cause the machine to work imprecisely or even dangerously.
• Always use the auxiliary handle.
• Never attempt to clean off dust or shavings resulting from drilling when the machine is operating.
• Do not use diamond core bits.
• When drilling walls, ceilings or floors, take care to avoid electric wires and gas or water pipes.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
A mechanical percussion unit generates the power necessary for hammer drilling in stone or concrete.
Use of the tool: These hammer drills can be used for hammer drilling in stone, drilling in wood, metal as well as plastic, and also for driving screws with driving bits installed in a key chuck. Any other use not mentioned is not allowed.
Additional features of the hammer drill:
- Warning! This machine must not be used with hole saws, core bits, diamond bits, etc, as these tend to jam easily in the orifice and can cause accidents.
- Change direction of rotation with switch lever I –due to a lockout mechanism, switching the lever is only possible if the On/off switch J is not depressed.
- Electronic control of spindle speed, infinitely variable by finger pressure on the On/off switch J.
- For continuous operation the On-/Off switch can be locked in the “On” position by the button K.
- Adjustable auxiliary handle H, with integral depth gauge G.
BEFORE USING THIS TOOL
WARNING! Before carrying out any work, check, for instance, using a metal detector, that there are no elec-tric wires or gas or water pipes under the surfaces you
wish to work on.
Make sure the mains voltage is correct: it must be the
same as that on the specification label. Machines with
230V can also be connected to a 220-V mains supply.
To turn the machine on, press the ON/OFF switch J and
keep it pressed down.
When the ON/OFF switch is released, the machine
stops.
WARNING! Always disconnect the plug from the socket
before doing any work on the machine.
1. Drill chuck
(Mod. FPD16REA)
This model features a keyless drill chuck B (Fig. 2).
(Mod. FPD16RE)
These models feature key-operated drill chucks L.
Changing drill chucks (Fig. 3)
Quick fitting drill chuck
Insert it in the tool and tighten with drill chuck key M
uniformly on each of the three holes.
Remove the drill chuck by opening it all the way and
completely unscrewing screw A.
WARNING: Screw A has left-hand threads.
Hold the shaft at gap C with a wrench and turn the drill
chuck in the opposite direction of operation.
2. Changing the position of the auxiliary handle
1. Unscrew the auxiliary handle H in an anticlockwise direction.
2. Turn the auxiliary handle H to the required position.
3. Screw the auxiliary handle H in place again.
3. Setting the depth gauge
Make sure before you start that drill-bit is inserted.
1. Slightly loosen the fixing wing nut N.
2. Hold the bit tip against the work surface. Push the depth gauge G against the work surface, to the same depth as the length of the bit.
3. Read the value in mm off the scale on the depth gauge G and subtract the required drill depth.
4. Tighten the fixing wing nut N and adjust the resulting value for the depth stop.
4. Mains connection
Warning! Connect only to a single-phase AC current supply and only to the mains voltage specified on the rating plate. Connection to sockets without earth protection is possible as the appliance features protective class II insulation according to European Standard EN50144. Radio interference suppression complies with the European Standard EN 55014.
FUNCTIONS
1. Electronic speed selection
The speed can be controlled in infinitely variable steps by adjusting finger pressure on the On-/off switch J. The electronic regulation built-in the switch trigger J allows to
adjust the speed suitable for the material to be worked.It’s advisable to start the drill at low speed so that the drill does not move from the intended centre.
On cast iron and high strength steels, low speed is advisable. On plastics, timber, aluminium, copper, soft bronze and brass, high speeds are advisable.
2. Switching over between drilling and hammer-drilling (fig. 1) To work in hammer mode, shift button E to the area marked by a hammer symbol.
To work without hammer, shift button E to the area marked by a drill bit symbol. Striking mechanism may be turned on while the machine
is running.Use hard metal drill bits to work with concrete, stone and rubblework.
Only ever switch over when the machine is stationary or slowing down. Only ever operate the machine rotating clockwise when drilling.
3. Switching between forward and reverse
These models are provided with a reversing lever in the switch which allows the drill to be used as an screwdriver.
Select direction of rotation with turn direction lever I as shown on label O, i.e., R=right sense, L=left sense. Due to a lockout mechanism, the turn direction lever I can only be switched when the On-/off switch J is not depressed.
Only enable the turn direction lever I when the machine has stopped.
Only ever operate the machine rotating to the right when hammer-drilling or when chiselling!
4. Switching the tool on and off Intermittent use Switching on: Press trigger switch J.
Switching off: Release trigger switch J.
Continuous use Switching on: Press the On-/off switch J and then the locking button K, after that release on-off switch J. Switching off: Press the On-/off switch J and then release. The speed can be controlled continuously during the operation by adjusting finger pressure on the On-/off switch.
OPERATION
1. Hammer-drilling
1. Set the following adjustments before starting work:
- Shift button E to the area marked by a hammer symbol.
- Clockwise rotation.
2. Fit the drill.
3. Place the drill against the material before switching it on, press it until the lengthways play is taken up, then switch on and work exerting light pressure (e.g. 30N).
Note Exerting greater pressure does not increase the machine’s effectiveness!
Tips on drilling in masonry:
• Take the drill out of the hole from time to time to remove dust.
• Switch to percussion-drilling for concrete, hard bricks and tiles, stone and hard cement (but not when drilling the surface of marble).
• For tiles, paving-stones, soft bricks and tiles, soft cement, breeze-block and plaster, switch to normal drilling.
• Use percussion carbide-tipped masonry drill-bits. When drilling a hard, smooth surface (e.g. tiles), cover the point to be drilled with adhesive tape in order to prevent the drill tip from skidding.
NOISE AND VIBRATION
This tool has been designed and made to reduce noise to a minimum. However, in spite of this, in certain circumstances the maximum noise level in the place of work could exceed 85 dBA. In this case, the operator should wear ear protection.
The machine’s noise and vibration levels, measured in compliance with EN50144, usually reach:
Acoustic pressure = 95 dB(A)
Sound-power level = 108 dB(A)
Use ear protection!
Vibration acceleration = 12.2 m/s2
