Safety and operating instructions

Hoses and connections

Compressed air source
A.
Water separator (optional)
B.
C. Oiler (optional)
D. Max. 10 feet (3 meter) compressed air hose
between the oiler and the machine.
Check that you are using the correct
♦
recommended operating pressure, 87 psig (6 bar
(e)).
The maximum permissible air pressure, 90 psig
♦
(6.2 bar (e)), must not be exceeded.
Blow any impurities out of the compressed air
♦
hose before connecting it to the machine.
Select the correct dimension and length for the
♦
compressed air hose. For hose lengths up to 100
feet (30 meters), a hose with a minimum internal
diameter of 3 ⁄ " (19 mm) should be used. If the
4
hose length is between 100 and 330 feet (30 and
100 meters), a hose with a minimum internal
diameter of 1" (25 mm) should be used.

Methods to prevent freezing

Ice formation in the muffler can occur when the
ambient air temperature is 0–10°C (32-50 °F) and
the relative humidity is high.
The machine is designed to avoid the formation of
ice in the muffler. Despite this, under extreme
conditions ice can form in the muffler.
Take the following actions to further counteract the
risk of ice formation:
♦ Use a rockdrill oil.
Use a water separator.

Connecting a water
separator
The length of the air hose between the compressor
and the water separator must be such that the water
vapor is cooled and condenses in the hose before
reaching the water separator.
If the ambient temperature is below 32 °F (0 °C) the
hose must be short enough to prevent the water
from freezing before reaching the water separator.

Lubrication

The lubricant is important for the machine s function
and has a great impact on the service life. In order
to supply the correct volume of oil, an oiler should
be connected to the air hose. The use of Chicago
Pneumatic air line oiler is recommended. To
guarantee good lubrication, the length of the air
hose between the oiler and the pneumatic tool
should not exceed 10 feet (3 m).
Too much lubrication can cause starting problems,
low power or uneven performance.
Recommended Lubricant: Rockdrill oil with a
viscosity of 100-150 SUS at 100°F (ISO VG 22–32).

Drill steel

WARNING Ejected insertion tool
If the tool retainer on the machine is not in a locked
position, the inserted tool can be ejected with force,
which can cause personal injury.
Before changing the insertion tool, stop the
►
machine, switch off the compressed air supply
and bleed the machine by activating the start and
stop device.
Before fitting the drill steel
Check that the tool shank is of the correct size and
length for the chuck used. The shank must be clean
and the tool must be in good condition. Shanks
which are chipped, rounded, out of square or too
hard on the striking end will operate inefficiently
and cause premature piston failure.
Inspect the drill steel:
A dull drill steel will slow down the drilling speed
and overstrain the drill mechanism. When changing
drill steel make sure that the new one is the correct
size to follow your previous bore.
Before drilling, check that the flushing hole in the
drill steel is not blocked.
