1.2 General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term
“power tool” in the warnings refers to your electrically-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
-
Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. -
Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors only, use an extension cords suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. -
Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A momentary lack of attention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dustrelated hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second. -
Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instruc- tions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations. -
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
1.3 Special safety instructions

and can be used to compare one electric power tool with another. They can also
be used to make an initial estimate of the loading.
**** The quoted vibration and noise emissions can vary during actual use of
the electric power tool dependent on the way in which the electric power tool
is used, in particular what type of workpiece is being processed. Establish
additional safety measures to protect the operator which are based upon an
estimate of the vibration loading during the actual usage conditions (in doing
so taking account of parts of the operating cycle, for example times in which
the electric power tool is switched and those in which it is switched on but
not running under load).
Power connection
Connect only to the single-phase alternating current indicated on the rating
plate. Connect only to sockets with protective contacts. The machine must be
operated only through a ground fault circuit with max. 10 – 30 mA rated
leakage current.
Always perform the operational test before starting up the device. If there is
a repeated failure, have the connected device inspected.
Please keep in mind that this device cannot replace fundamental safety
precautions. To prevent life-threatening hazards, be sure to use electrical

4.2 Start of operation
** The diamond wet drill must only be operated with a residual current
device (PRCD) (Switzerland FI switch). The residual current device (PRCD)
(Switzerland FI switch) is compulsory for wet operation, as there is otherwise
danger to life!
Quick change adapter fitting for diamond wet bore crowns (ill. B-1)
** G 1/2″ connecting thread for the wet bore crown.
- Screw the bore crown (1) (SW24 open-ended spanner) into the quick change adapter (2) (SW27 open-ended spanner) before using for the first time.
Always keep the quick change adapter clean!
Changing the drill bit
Please wear protective gloves when changing the drill bit. The drill can
become hot after being in use for a longer period of time!
- Push back the sliding sleeve (3) on the output shaft and remove the quick change adapter to the front together with the screwed on bore crown.
- Replace by another bore crown with fitted quick change adapter.
- To fit a bore crown push back the sliding sleeve and insert the quick change adapter in the correct position.
Please check that it is lock-fitted!
Please note: Ensure that the quick change adapter is only inserted into the output shaft in a clean condition.
Water supply RODIADRILL Ceramic
Water is supplied from the water tank (9) during drilling. The water tank can
be opened for filling with water by turning the cap nut (10).
-
Fill the water into the pressure tank carefully.
-
The maximum filling quantity should not exceed 0.75 litres, see marking on the water tank (9).
Water must not run over the equipment. Use a funnel if necessary. Only fill with clean water (tap water)!
The pressure necessary for the water supply is generated by the piston pump (11). -
Pumping up of the pressure tank: approx. 10 pump strokes.
-
Set the water quantity using the valve (4), position 1 means a small amount of water and position 2 plenty of water.
-
Operate the water flow to the bore crown and borehole location manually using the control valve (5).
Optional: External water supply
- Set the valve (4) to “0” to shut down the water supply from the water tank.
- Remove the sealing plug (6) and connect the water hose (optional, No. FF35301).
Attention! Check the seal on the water hose connection!
4.3 Handling
-
Set the suitable speed using the gear change (7) rotary switch (s. technical data).
-
Hold the equipment firmly by the hand grip (12). Use the other hand to guide the neck at the front of the equipment under the valve block.
**** Be sure without fail to take up a firm position. Do not stand on ladders or other moving items! -
Use the switch (8) to switch on the equipment (with “acceleration” function) and accelerate immediately to maximum speed.
-
Apply the bore crown and start drilling using consistent pressure. Use of the optional No.
FF35750 spot drill aid is recommended at the face of the borehole. -
Briefly operate the water supply valve.
-
Continue drilling using slight follow-up pressure and in the process consistently impulsepress the water supplyvalve.
Attention! No dust formation should be visible! -
Relieve the crown at intervals and retract slightly (oscillating movement) in order to flush out the drilling mud.
Use continuous flushing when changing over from drilling tiles or natural stone to drilling the subjacent carrier stone in order to keep the drill as free from drilling mud as possible.
Notes on achieving optimum drill results -
A continuous water supply to the drill bit is preferred in order to keep drilling cores and drill- ing core scraps from collecting.
In case the bore crown is blocked by drilling core remains all the same or the water flow rate is impaired by drilling mud, the borehole must be pierced in the crown with the assistance of a suitable aid (drilling core pusher or suitable wire). -
Immediately remove any possible drilling cores and drilling core remains from the bore crown each time after drilling before this becomes caked together.
-
Only use clean water (tap water) to fill the pressure tank.
Attention! Relieve the tank pressure first! \ -
Only use diamond drill bits that have been tested by ROTHENBERGER.
To some extent, commercially available diamond bore crowns from third-party manufacturers feature excessive true-running inaccuracy. Problems arise for this reason when starting up ondamageable surfaces and in addition to these precision boreholes are not possible.
Care and Maintenance
Clean carefully after drilling has been finished and blow out using compressed air. Lightly lubricate screws and thread. Flushing head: drain off water, blow out and oil the thread lightly. Remove all water and grease from the hand grip. Important! All maintenance, overhauling and repair work must only be carried out by trained specialised staff.
