Felisatti RH18/450ER, Operating Instructions Manual

6

Switching on: Press trigger switch 

H

.

Switching off: Release trigger switch 

H

.

Continuous use

Switching on: Press the On-/off switch 

H

 and then the 

locking button I, after that release on-off switch.

Switching  off:  Press  the  On-/off  switch 

H

  and  then  re-

lease.  The  speed  can  be  controlled  continuously  during 

the operation by adjusting finger pressure on the On-/off 

switch.

OPERATION

Hammer-drilling

1.  Set the following adjustments before starting work:

-  Lever 

E

 in appropriate position.

-  Clockwise rotation.

2.  Fit the SDS-plus drill.

3.  Place the drill against the material before switch-ing 

it on, press it until the lengthways play is taken up, then 

switch on and work exerting light pres-sure (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 re-

move 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 = 88 dB(A)

Sound-power level = 99 dB(A)

Use ear protection!

Vibration acceleration = 8,0 m/s²

WARNING!

  The  vibration  level  given  in  these 

instructions has been measured in accordance with 

a  standardized  measurement  procedure  specified  in 

EN60745 and can be used to compare devices. Different 

uses of the device give rise to different vibration levels and 

in many cases they may exceed the values given in these 

instructions. It is easy to underestimate the vibration load 

if  the  electrical  power  tool  is  used  regularly  in  particular 

circumstances.

Note.

 If you wish to make an accurate assessment of 

the vibration loads experienced during a particular period of 

working , you should also take into account the intervening 

periods of time when the device is switched off or is running 

but is not actually in use. This can result in a much lower 

vibration load over the whole of the period of working.

stops.

WARNING!  Always  disconnect  the  plug  from  the 

socket before doing any work on the machine.

1. Fitting the working tools

Hammer drill (Fig.1)

Only use tools with SDS-plus shaft!

1.  Clean and grease the shaft of the tool.

2.  Before inserting the tool, move the sliding ring 

B

 back. 

Now the SDS-plus chuck is open.

3.  Push the tool in, turn it slightly until it can be pushed in 

all the way and you can feel it notch into place.

4.  Release the sliding ring 

B

. Now the tool is locked.

5.  Check  that  the  tool  is  properly  locked  into  place.  It 

must be possible to move it about 10 mm lengthways.

6.  Switch machine over to hammer drilling with lever 

E

 in 

appropriate position.

SDS-plus adapter for geared drill chuck (Fig.3)

1.  Fit the SDS-plus adapter 

P

 into the SDS-plus chuck as 

described above.

2.  Drill  chucks  with  1/2”  x  20  UNF  mounting  threads 

can  be  screwed  onto  the  mounting  shaft.  Drill  bits  with 

cylindrical shank or screwdriver bits 

N

  can  be  in-serted 

directly into the chuck I.

2. Changing the position of the auxiliary handle

1.  Unscrew  the  auxiliary  handle 

M

 in an anticlockwise 

direction.

2.  Turn the auxiliary handle 

M

 to the required position.

3.  Screw the auxiliary handle 

M

 in place again.

3. Setting the depth gauge

Make sure before you start that drill-bit is inserted in 

the

SDS-Plus chuck.

1.  Slightly loosen the fixing wing nut 

K

.

2.  Hold  the  bit  tip  against  the  work  surface.  Push  the 

depth gauge 

L

 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 

L 

and subtract the required drill depth.

4.  Tighten the fixing wing nut 

K

 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 

protec-tion is possible as the appliance features protective 

class  II  insulation  according  to  European  Standard 

EN50114.  Radio  interference  suppression  complies  with 

the European Standard EN 55014.

FUNCTIONS

1. Speed selection (Fig.1)

The  speed  can  be  controlled  in  infinitely  variable 

steps by adjusting finger pressure on the On-/off switch H. 

Maximum speed is set up by handwheel C.

2. Switching over between modes (Fig.1)

For switching over between modes lever E has to be 

turned. To activate this lever, first press the button D.

WARNING! Only turn the lever E when the machine has 

stopped.

3. Switching between forward and reverse (Fig.1)

Select direction of rotation with reversing lever G as 

shown on label F.

  Only change directions when the machine has 

stopped.

4. Switching the tool on and off (Fig.1)
