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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 instructions, 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.

  5. 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.

The Vibration Total Value quoted in these instructions and the quoted noise emission values were measured according to standardized measurement procedures 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 devices only as intended.

Start of operation

Start of operation

Freehand operation

 Only work with the moment switch, i.e. without locking the on/off switch.
 The additional hand grip (9) can be fasted on the left or on the right.
Great moments of force are generated when drilling using drill bits; never work without the additional hand grip.

Clamping into the drill rig (picture 1)

 Locate the feed gear in position on the drill rig.
RODIACUT 150: Insert the motor into the receptacle of the drill rig from the top and fasten by means of the screws (size 6 Allen key).
RODIACUT 250: Slide the motor from the top as far as it will go stop into the feed unit of the drill rig and tighten using both star handles.
 Check the tight fit of the motor.
For this please read the drill rig instruction manual!

Changing the drill bit (picture 2)

Please wear protective gloves when changing the drill bit. The drill can become hot after being in use for a longer period of time.
 Use an open-ended spanner (SW 36) to hold the drive shaft (8) and release and unscrew (right-hand thread) the drill bit using an open-ended spanner (SW 24 for G 1/2″ bits; SW 41 for 1.1/4″ UNC bits).
Information: In the case of drill bits with a 1.1/4″ UNC screw thread it is recommended to place a copper ring (No. FF35190) between the drill motor and the drill bit. It is then easier to separate the drill bits from the motor after drilling and any unevenness between the drill bit fitting and the drive shaft is compensated.

Wet drilling (picture 3)

Wet drilling is only permitted with a faultless “PRCD“. Always carry out work using a water extraction device when wet drilling overhead. Protect the prime mover from splash water.

 Water connection: Water connection (6) to a submersible pressurized water tank (No. FF35028) or connecting a water line directly over a Gardena water hose (7) using a two way adapter.
(There must at least be sufficient water pressure (max. 4 bar!) to move the arising drilling mud from the borehole)
 Operation in the drill rig: Use the adjusting screws to fix both arms of the water extraction ring (No. FF35700, FF35730) to the base plate. Cut a hole into the rubber sheet somewhat larger than the diameter of the drill bit. Connect the water extraction ring to the water extractor.

Concerning this, please read the operating manual for the pressurized water tank or the water extractor appliance!

Optional: Dry drilling (picture 4)

 Screw the suction rotor (No. FF40056) onto the drive shaft (8).
Attach the hose adapter and suction hose.
 Connect the vacuum cleaner (No. FF35144) to the mains supply.
For this please read the vacuum cleaner instruction manual!

Handling

Please read and be sure to understand the drill rig instruction manual for operation in the drill rig.

Overload protection

The green control lamp illuminates during normal operation. The red control lamp illuminates if excessive pressure is applied to the drill bit. Reduce the contact pressure; the green control lamp illuminates again.
The electronic system shuts the equipment down in the case of overloading for a longer period of time. Switch the equipment off and then on again in order to continue working. In the event of jerky overloading (e.g. jamming of the drill bit) the friction coupling interrupts the force flow.

Setting the speed

Set the speed according to the diameter and the type of the material, according to the label.
Only change gears when the equipment is at a standstill.

Wet drilling

Danger due to electric shock! Always carry out work using a water extraction device when wet drilling overhead. The water extraction device must be in a flawless condition.
 Turn on the water connection and switch on the water extractor.
(There must at least be sufficient water pressure (max. 4 bar!) to move the arising drilling mud from the borehole)
 Freehand operation wet suction: Insert the drill bit into the water suction ring while it is stationary and check before whether the water suction device has been firmly stuck by suckers to the wall or the floor and is being held firmly.
Please note: Never drill from the bottom up when using the centering aid in order to avoid the danger of an accident in the event of unintentional release of the centering aid. The water suction ring can come loose during drilling!
 Switch on the motor.
Apply the diamond drill bit and continue to drill using light, consistent follow-up pressure.
 Occasionally with draw the drill bit slightly from the bore so that the drilling mud or dust is removed.
 Shut down the motor once the desired drilling depth has been achieved and pull the drilling bit out of the borehole slowly.
 Stop the supply of water and shut down the water extractor.
If no more boreholes are required, allow the motor to run again for a few seconds without water supply in order to press the remaining water out of the rinsing bush of the motor.

In case of seizure, start up the drill motor again at low speed using cooling water and withdraw the core bit.

In case of need, repeat the process or turn the core bit using the flat wrench.
Please note: Switch off the PRCD switch!

Optional: Dry drilling

Reinforced concrete only wet drilling!
 Switch on the motor and the vacuum cleaner.
 Apply the diamond drill bit and continue to drill using light, consistent follow-up pressure.
 Occasionally with draw the drill bit slightly from the bore so that the drilling mud or dust is removed.
 Shut down the motor once the desired drilling depth has been achieved and pull the drilling bit out of the borehole slowly
Shut down the vacuum cleaner.

Removal of the drilling core on through borings

Please take precautions to prevent physical injuries or property damage.
 Allow the drilling core to fall out of the bit.
If the core should jam in the bit, use a rod to push it out from the rear.
Avoid damage to the ground.
On no account use a hammer or spanner to hit the outside of the drill bit in order to release the core. This could deform the pipe and it would then definitely no longer be possible to remove the drilling core from the bit.

Removal of the drilling core from tapped blind holes

Use a screwdriver, chisel or similar tools to penetrate the annular gap that has emerged and break and remove the core by means of a brief, forceful lateral jerk or hammer blow.
The deeper the borehole, the easier it is to break the cores. Thus, optimal results are achieved if the borehole depth is at least the same as the diameter of the drill bit.

Care and Maintenance

In order to avoid damage to the equipment and guarantee trouble free work, all parts must be cleaned and lubricated regularly.
Rub off the equipment after every drilling job and blow out using compressed air.
If it is foreseeable that the equipment will not be used for a longer period of time, remove the drill bit from the motor. If this is not observed, the drill bit and motor shaft can be corroded together in unfavourable circumstances. It would be very difficult to separate both parts, causing damage.
The following work should be carried out on a weekly basis at least. Carry out on an appropriately more frequent basis in the case of more intensive work.

  • Check and replace carbon brushes if necessary approximately every 250 operating
  • use a fine brush to clean the collector cavity.

Important! All maintenance, overhauling and repair work must only be carried out by trained specialised staff.
