SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
3
■
Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable
platform.
Holding the work by hand or against
your body leaves it unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
■
Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a “live”
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the
tool “live” and shock the operator.
■
Know your power tool. Read operator’s
manual carefully. Learn its applications and
limitations, as well as the specific potential
hazards related to this power tool.
Following
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire
or serious injury.
■
Always wear safety glasses with side
shields.
Everyday glasses have only impact
resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye
injury.
■
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask
if the operation is dusty.
■
Use auxiliary handle, if supplied with the
tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
■
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of
operation.
■
If using an extension lead, ensure that the
male and female plug connection is elevated
and out of the way of any water contact.
■
Do not make any adjustment while the motor is
in motion.
■
Always disconnect the electrical cord from the
power source before changing the drill bit,
brushes, or when working on the unit.
■
After use, check your tool to keep it in top
condition.
■
Clean out accumulated dust.
■
When the carbon brushes are worn to the
standard line, they must be replaced.

MAINTENANCE
Now that you have purchased your tool, should a
need ever exist for repair, parts or service, simply
contact your nearest Ryobi Authorised Service
Centre or other qualified service organisation. Be
sure to provide all pertinent facts when you call or
visit.
SERVICE
APPLICATION
APPLICATION
It is recommended that the tool always be supplied
via a residual current device with a rated residual
current of 30mA or less.
AUXILIARY HANDLE AND DEPTH STOP
Install the auxiliary handle on the head of the
housing and insert the depth stop in the hole
provided. The auxiliary handle can swivel 360° for
the most comfortable position and easiest operation.
The depth stop helps keep an accurate depth when
drilling holes.
MOUNTING OF THE DRILL BIT
■
When mounting the drill bit, insert the bit into the
chuck as far as it will go and tighten securely.
(Fig.2)
■
To tighten, grasp and hold the collar of the chuck
with one hand, while rotating the chuck body with
your other hand.
■
DO NOT use a wrench to tighten or loosen the
chuck jaws.
WARNING:
The chuck and exposed metal surfaces of
the tool may become “live” if the tool drills
into wiring in a wall. The operator must
always ensure that the area being drilled
does not conceal electrical wiring or
plumbing.
WARNING:
Never cover the air vents. They must be
open at all times for proper motor cooling.
WARNING:
This impact drill is designed for light
consumer use. It is NOT designed for trade
or industrial use and is not covered by the
guarantee for use in these applications.
NOTE:
Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the
arrow marked GRIP to tighten the chuck
jaws.
■
The bit can be removed by reversing the above
procedure.
SWITCHES (Fig.3)
Your drill starts and stops by squeezing and
releasing the trigger switch. For continuous
operation, press the lock on button while the trigger
switch is fully depressed. To release the lock,
squeeze the trigger switch again.
FORWARD REVERSE SWITCH (Fig.4)
Your drill is fitted with a forward reverse lever which
allows the removal of screws.
■
FORWARD ROTATION: Situate the lever in the
“R” (right) position indicated on your drill.
■
REVERSE ROTATION: Situate the lever in the
“L” (left) position indicated on your drill.
VARIABLE SPEED (Fig.5)
Your drill has a variable speed control mechanism
designed to allow the operator to have control and
adjustment of speed and torque limits. The speed
and torque of your drill can be increased or
decreased by rotating the variable speed control
button.
HAMMER MECHANISM (Fig.6)
The hammer mechanism can be operated with the
machine running. When drilling materials that are
liable to break, such as tiles, it is advisable to start
the drill without impact. For deep holes, the drill bit
should be pulled out occassionally in order to
remove the dust and chips from the hole. To drill
with impact, only use drill bits with a carbide tip and
negative cut angle on the lip. Carbide tip drill bits
should only be sharpened with silicone carbide
wheels. To work WITHOUT HAMMER, as a normal
drill, turn the lever to the point where a drill is
printed. To work WITH HAMMER, push the lever to
the position where a hammer is printed.
DRILLING IN WOOD (Fig.7)
To prevent ugly splits around the drill hole on the
reverse side of the workpiece, place a scrap piece
of timber beneath the material to be drilled.
DRILLING IN METAL (Fig.8)
Metals such as steel, brass, aluminium sheets,
stainless steel and pipe may also be drilled. Mark
the point to be drilled with a nail or a punch before
drilling.
DRILLING IN CONCRETE (Fig.9)
Rock and masonry are generally drilled in hammer
mode. When drilling delicate material such as wall
tiles, it is essential to start with ordinary drilling and
once the tile is pierced, to continue with hammer
drilling. In deep boreholes the drill bit should be
pulled out occassionally in order to remove the dust
and chips from the hole.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
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. Check for
misalignment of binding or moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools’ 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.
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.
