OPERATION

PREOPERATION

PROCEDURES

CHECK POWER SOURCE

1.Using a calibrated ﬂ owmeter and pressure gauge, check that the hydraulic power source develops a ﬂ ow of 7-9 gpm/26-34lpm at 1500-2000 psi/105-140 bar.

2.Make certain that the hydraulic power source is equipped with a relief valve set to open at 2250 psi/155 bar.

CHECK THE TOOL

1.Make certain all tool accessories are correctly installed. Failure to install tool accessones properly can result in damage to the tool or personal injury.

2.There should be no signs of leaks.

3.The tool should be clean and dry with all ﬁ ttings and fasteners tight.

BIT INSTALLATION

The hammer drill is designed for use with 1-inch to 2-inch diameter bits manufactured for Model 736 Skil Hex Ham- mer Drills.

1.Pull the latch at the foot of the tool so that the drill can be inserted into the drive hex.

WARNING

Do not allow your ﬁ ngers to come between the latch and drill steel when closing the latch.

2.Push the latch back into the “latched” (vertical) posi- tion to lock the bit in place.

CONNECT HOSES

1.Wipe all hose couplers with a clean lint-free cloth before making connections.

2.Connect the hoses from the hydraulic power source to the tool ﬁ ttings or quick disconnects. Connect the return hose ﬁ rst and disconnect it last to eliminate or reduce

trapped pressure for easier quick-connect ﬁ tting attachment.

Note:

If uncoupled hoses are left in the sun, pressure in- crease within the hoses can make them difﬁcult to connect. Whenever possible, connect the free ends of hoses together.

3.Observe the ﬂ ow indicators stamped on the hose cou- plers to ensure that the ﬂ ow is in the proper direction. The female coupler on the tool’s “IN” port is the inlet coupler.

See illustration in back of this manual for tool port identiﬁ - cation.

4.Squeeze the drill trigger momentarily. If the drill does not operate, the hoses might be reversed. Verify correct con- nection of the hoses before continuing.

DRILL OPERATION

1.Observe all safety precautions.

2.Install the appropriate drill bit for the job.

Note:

The rotation of the drillbit is reversible. Drillbit speed is variable in each direction. This is accomplished by rotating the lever on the lower section of the tool. The tool is in neutral when the lever is in the vertical “up” position. The lever can be rotated 90° to the “horion- tal” position in each direction. (The direction that the bit rotates.) The distance that the lever is rotated de- termines the speed of the bit. The horizontal position in either direction is the maximum speed setting.

3.Select the speed of the bit best suited for the material being drilled. Most drilling is best accomplished with the lever halfway between fully “On” (horizontal) and the verti- cal “up” position. Refer to the above note. The drill is not suitable for drilling steel or wood.

4.Squeeze the trigger to start the drill. Adequate down pressure is very important.

Note:

If the trigger is partially depressed, the piston will cycle at a low rate and permit easier starting of the drill bit into the work surface.

5.Periodically pull the drill out of the hole while the bit is still rotating. This will clear the hole and allow more efﬁ cient penetration.
