Important information for safer use of percussive tools
This manual follows the EC Machines Directive (2006/42/EC) regarding opera-
tor's instructions and relevant parts of standards from CEN TC 255 "Hand-held
power driven non-electric tools - Safety" These instructions concern operation,
handling of machine, inserted tool and equipments as well as maintenance.
Neglect to follow these long established recommendations may cause serious
hazards.
Make sure that the operator has fully understood the following recommenda-
tions and has full access to them.
pay strict attention to following measures the operator has to take in order to
avoid risks of misuse or accident
Installation
Follow the instructions for air preparation given in the written instructions sup-
plied with the machine.
When lubrication is recommended - use recommended lubricants only.
Check hose size and air pressure.
Avoid the risk of whipping hose - regularly check hose, hose fittings and condi-
tion of clamps.
Check that the exhaust air is directed to avoid blowing dust or air from the work
piece onto the operator or other persons. Arrange for barriers if possible.
When necessary, use exhaust hose and arrange for dust collection.
Avoid accidents when using the machine
1 The chisel, die or punch may fall out or may be shot out of the
tool accidentally causing serious injury
To prevent injury from a flying chisel:
• always use a retainer
• inspect the retainer for wear or damage regularly

Long term risks when using the machine
6 Always use ear protection
To prevent gradual loss of hearing due to exposure to high noise levels:
• wear ear protection
7 Vibration may be harmful to hands and arms
• use vibration dampened tools if available
• reduce the total time of exposure to vibrations, particularly if the operator
has to guide the chisel by hand
8 Dust generated during operation may be harmful
• use spot suction or a breathing apparatus
Proper use and maintenance
9 Do not perform idle blows with a hammer
• they will cause high internal stresses and shorten the life of the tool
• note the risk of shooting out the chisel, die or punch if the retainer is not in
order
10 Quick coupling
• if a quick coupling is used on a percussive tool, it shall be separated from
the tool by a whip hose (length 0.5 m)
11 Maintenance

Warning
Make sure you are familiar with the operating instructions before you use this
machine.
This machine, its attachments and accessories must only be used for the pur-
pose for which they were designed:
General chipping and scaling work, fettling of castings in foundries, hole mak-
ing and light demolition in construction and building industry (not for nailing
without proper attachments).
For product liability and safety reasons any modification to the machine, its at-
tachments or accessories must be agreed in advance with an authorized techni-
cal representative of the manufacturer.
This machine does not satisfy the normal requirements for use in explosive
environment as the machine casing contains aluminium.
To run the tool with no or too low feed force increases the load of the retainer
and will shorten service life.

• Install chisel (j) and chisel retainer (i), see figure.
• Before use – Put a few drops of air tool oil through the air inlet.
• Connect the machine to the air line according to figure. If a quick coupling
is used, it should be separated from the machine by a whip hose (length 0.5
m).
• The compressed air should be free from water and dirt as far as possible.
The installation of an Atlas Copco filter/regulator/lubricator air preparation
set is recommended to ensure a high quality air supply to the machine. For
lubrication, only use high quality air tool oils.
Air quality
• For optimum performance and maximum machine life we recommend the
use of compressed air with a maximum dew point of +10°C. We also rec-
ommend the installation of an Atlas Copco refrigeration-type air dryer.
• Use a separate air filter of type Atlas Copco FIL. This filter removes solid
particles larger than 15 microns and also removes more than 90 % of liquid
water. The filter must be installed as close as possible to the machine/equip-
ment and prior to any other air preparation unit such as REG or DIM (please
see Air Line Accessories in our main catalogue). Blow out the hose before
connecting.
Models which need air lubrication:
• The compressed air must contain a small quantity of oil.
We strongly recommend that you install an Atlas Copco oil-fog lubricator
(DIM). This should be set according to air consumption by the air line tool
according to the following formula:
L = Air consumption (litre/s).
(May be found in our sales literature).
D = Number of drops per min (1 drop = 15 mm3)
L* 0.2 = D
this applies to the use of long work cycle air line tools. A single point lubri-
cator type Atlas Copco Dosol can also be used for tools with short running
cycles.
Information about Dosol settings may be found under Air Line Accessories
in our main catalogue.

Safety and operating instructions EN RRF 21
8© Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 977900 00
Lubrication-free models:
• In the case of lubrication-free tools it is up to the customer to decide on the
peripheral equipment to be used. However, it is no disadvantage if the com-
pressed air contains a small quantity of oil e.g. supplied from a fog lubrica-
tor (DIM) or Dosol system. This does not apply to turbine tools, which
should be kept oil free.
Compressed air connection
• The machine is designed for a working pressure of 6–7 bar = 600–700 kPa =
87–102 psi.
• Blow out the hose before connecting.
Installation proposal
Choosing the correct couplings, hose and clamps can be a troublesome digging
into details. To save your time and to ensure correct capacity of the airline in-
stallation, from the tapping point to the tool, we offer you an installation pro-
posal.
For more information please read, Atlas Copco Industrial Power Tools cata-
logue Ordering No. 9837 3000 01.

RRF 21 EN Safety and operating instructions

Handling
Operation
Feed force
To get full power out of the tool a feed force must be applied to bring the mech-
anism into the middle of its free travel in the handle.
Too high feed force results in reduced vibration damping, without increasing
the material removal, as the cylinder will hit the bottom in the handle.
The standard recoil spring (33) is designed for best vibration damping and con-
trol of the chipping process in most applications, see fig.
The enclosed alternative recoil spring (33a), with yellow paint marking, is
softer than the standard spring. If the tool is going to be used in a light applica-
tion where standard spring may be too hard, please mount the alternative spring
according to the enclosed instruction. Test the tool in your application and
chose the spring that works best.
Power control (Optional Accessory)

Safety and operating instructions EN RRF 21
10 © Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 977900 00
The percussive power of the machine can if necessary be reduced limiting the
throttle valve stroke, see figure:
Pull the setting knob (d) and turn it clockwise to reduce the power. Find a suit-
able position and lock the knob in one of its 10 holes.
At maximum power setting the throttle lever can be pushed fully to stop
into the handle.
Maintenance
Maintenance
Lubricate the machine regularly with air tool oil.
Before longer standstills clean and lubricate the machine. When putting the ma-
chine into operation again, flush through with paraffin or a similar fluid. Imme-
diately after flushing thoroughly oil the machine with air tool oil.
The machine should be dismantled for overhauling and cleaning at regular in-
tervals after 500 running hours but at least once every six months.
The use of other than genuine Atlas Copco replacement parts may result in de-
creased tool performance and increased maintenance and may, at the option of
the company, invalidate all warranties.
Cleaning
At 100 hour operating intervals or earlier if operation becomes sluggish or the
machine shows sign of sticking, flush through with paraffin or a similar mate-
rial. Immediately after flushing thoroughly oil the machine with air tool oil.
The strainer inside the inlet adapter (b) should be cleaned frequently to prevent
choking with resultant decrease in capacity.
Dismantling
All threads are right hand.
• Remove ring (35).
• Clamp the cylinder (20) firmly in a vice and unscrew the handle (1).
• Remove pin (29) – if necessary by drilling (protect exhaust holes and thread
from chips by sticky tape) – and back off the outer cover (27).
• Remove, clean and inspect all parts – see spare parts list illustration.
Assembly
• Replace all O-rings and worn parts.
• Ensure all parts are clean and have a film of air tool oil lubrication.
• Clamp the cylinder (20) vertically in a vice.
• Mark the position of the five deep drillings for air distribution in the cylin-
der (totally 12 holes) with a marking pen.
Insert piston (24) and parts (25,26).
Tighten the outer cover (27), recommended tightening torque 50 Nm.
Protect exhaust holes and the thread by sticky tape to avoid contamination
with drill chips.
Drill a new hole, dia 3.9–4 mm x 8.8 mm, not interfering with the markings

RRF 21 EN Safety and operating instructions
© Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 977900 00 11
for the deep drillings in the cylinder wall. Preferably drill parallel with the
two key flats of the cylinder.
Fit a new pin (29).
• Lubricate O-ring (30) and the threads of handle (1). Fit parts (31-33) and the
percussive mechanism (P). Tighten casing (34) so the ring (35) fits without
clearance.

Ergonomic guidelines
Consider your workstation as you read through this list of general ergonomic
guidelines and see if you can identify areas for improvement in posture, compo-
nent placement, or work environment.
• Take frequent breaks and change work positions frequently.
• Adapt the workstation area to your needs and the work task.
• Adjust for convenient reach range by determining where parts or tools
should be located to avoid static load.
• Use workstation equipment such as tables and chairs appropriate for the
work task.
• Avoid work positions above shoulder level or with static holding during as-
sembly operations.
• When working above shoulder level, reduce the load on the static mus-
cles by reducing the weight of the tool, using for example torque arms,
hose reels or weight balancers. You can also reduce the load on the static
muscles by holding the tool close to the body.
• Make sure to take frequent breaks.
• Avoid extreme arm or wrist postures, particularly for operations requir-
ing a degree of force.
• Adjust for convenient field of vision by minimizing movement of the eyes
and head during the work task.
• Use the appropriate lighting for the work task.

Safety and operating instructions EN RRF 21
12 © Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 977900 00
• Select the appropriate tool for the work task.
• Use ear protection equipment in noisy environments.
• Use high-quality inserted tools or consumables to minimize exposure to ex-
cessive levels of vibration.
• Minimize exposure to reaction forces.
• When cutting:
A cut-off wheel can get stuck if the wheel is either bent or if it is not
guided properly. Make sure to use the correct flanges for cut-off wheels
and avoid bending the wheel during cut-off operation.
• When drilling:
The drill might stall when the drill bit breaks through. Makes sure you
use support handles if the stall torque is too high. The safety standard
ISO11148 part 3 recommends using something to absorb the reaction
torque above 10 Nm for pistol grip tools and 4 Nm for straight tools.
• When using direct-driven screw or nutrunners:
Reaction forces depend on tool setting and joint characteristics. The abil-
ity to bear reaction forces depends on the operator’s strength and pos-
ture. Adapt the torque setting to the operator's strength and posture and
use a torque arm or reaction bar if the torque is too high.
• Use dust extraction system or mouth protection mask in dusty environments.

Installation
• Installez le burin (j) et la retenue de burin (i), comme illustré à la figure.
• Avant utilisation – Déposez quelques gouttes d’huile pour outils pneuma-
tiques dans l’admission d’air.

Consignes d'utilisation et de sécurité FR RRF 21
20 © Atlas Copco Industrial Technique AB - 9836 977900 00
• Raccordez la machine à la conduite d’air comme illustré à la figure. Si vous
utilisez un raccord rapide, séparez-le de l’outil à l’aide d’un flexible de 0,5
m.
• Dans la mesure du possible, l’air comprimé doit être sec et propre.
Nous vous recommandons d’installer un ensemble de préparation de l’air
avec filtre/régulateur/graisseur Atlas Copco afin que la machine soit tou-
jours alimentée en air de toute première qualité. Lubrifiez la machine exclu-
sivement avec de l’huile de première qualité pour outils pneumatiques.
Qualité de l'air
• Pour assurer à la machine des performances optimums et une durée de vie
maximum, nous recommandons d'utiliser de l'air comprimé avec un point de
rosée maximum de +10°C. Nous recommandons également d'installer un
déshydrateur d'air Atlas Copco à réfrigération.
• Utilisez un filtre à air indépendant de type Atlas Copco FIL. Ce filtre retient
les particules solides supérieures à 15 microns et plus de 90 % d'eau sous
forme liquide. Il doit être placé aussi prêt que possible de la machine ou de
l'équipement et avant toute autre unité de préparation de l'air telles que des
unités REG ou DIM (voir "Accessoires de distribution d'air" dans notre ca-
talogue général). Mettez le flexible à l'air libre avant de le raccorder.
Modèles nécessitant une lubrification de l'air :
• L'air comprimé doit contenir une petite quantité d'huile.
Nous recommandons fortement l'installation d'un graisseur à brouillard
d'huile Atlas Copco (DIM). Celui-ci devra être réglé en fonction de la
consommation d'air de l'outil pneumatique conformément à la formule sui-
vante :
L = Consommation d’air (litre/s).
(voir notre documentation commerciale).
D = Nombre de gouttes par minute (1 goutte = 15 mm3)
L* 0.2 = D
cette formule s'appliquant aux outils pneumatiques à cycle de fonctionne-
ment long. Avec des outils à cycle de fonctionnement court, vous pouvez
également utiliser un lubrificateur à un seul point type Atlas Copco Dosol.
Vous trouverez des informations sur le réglage du Dosol dans notre cata-
logue général, sous le chapitre "Accessoires de distribution d'air".
Modèles sans lubrification :
• Pour les outils n'exigeant pas de lubrification, le client a le choix de l'équi-
pement périphérique à utiliser. Néanmoins, il n'y a aucun inconvénient à ce
que l'air comprimé contienne une petite quantité d'huile fournie par un équi-
pement tel qu'un graisseur à brouillard d'huile (DIM) ou un lubrificateur Do-
sol.
Ceci ne concerne pas les outils à turbine qui doivent rester exempts d'huile.
Raccordement de l'air comprimé
• L'outil est conçu pour une pression d'utilisation de 6 à 7 bar = 600 – 700 kPa
= 6 – 7 kg/cm2.
• Soufflez de l’air dans le flexible avant de le connecter.
