GENERAL WARNINGS
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
Engine exhaust and some of its constituents,
and some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the Sate
of California to cause cancer, birth defects and
other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
Lead from lead-based paints.
Crystalline silica from bricks.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumbar.
Your risk from these exposures caries, depend-
ing on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
ALWAYS work in a well ventilated area, and
work with improved safety equipment, such
as dust masks that are specifically designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
SILICOSIS WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete,-
metal and other materials with silica in their
composition may give off dust or mist contain-
ing crystalline silica.
Silica is a basic components of sand, quarts,
brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals
and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial inha-
lation of airborne crystalline silica can cause
serious or fatal respirator disease, including sil-
icosis. In addition, California and some author-
ities have listed repairable crystalline silica as a
substance known to cause cancer. When cutting
such materials, always follow the respiratory
precautions mentioned above.
RESPIRATORY HAZARDS
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete,metal and fumes containing
chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as respirato-
ry disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproduction harm, if you are
unfamiliar with th risks associated with the particular process and/or materi-
al being cut or the composition of the tool being used, review the material
safety data sher and/or consult your employer, the material manufacturer/
supplier, governmental agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH and other
sources on hazardous materials. California and some other authorities, for
instance, have published lists of substances known to cause cancer, repro-
ductive toxicity or other harmful effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices and
follow the recommendations of the manufactures of suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and
trade associations. Water should be used for dust suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the
hazards from inhalation of dust, mist and fumes cannot be eliminated, the operator and any bystand-
ers should always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the materials being used.

BEFORE CONNECTING THE AIR COMPRESSOR:
∆ NEVER attempt to loosen any compressed air
hose that is pressurized.
∆ KEEP AWAY from all hot or spark generating
objects, do not smoke when handling fuel.
∆ So as to facilitate shipment, new or repaired
units are not lubricated before delivery to cus-
tomers.
∆ DO NOT use hydrocarbons and especially do
not use fuel oil for lubricating purposes.
∆ DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE WITHOUT
GUARDS AND COVERS IN PLACE
∆ ALWAYS disconnect the air supply before chang-
ing steel or dismantling the tool for service or
repair. For maximum safety we advise the in-
stallation of a shut-off valve at the end of the air
line.
∆ NEVER operate the engine with heat shields or
guards removed.
∆ DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while
the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the
engine crankcase and severely scald any persons
in the general area of the machine.
∆ Install the drill steel and bits into the drill motors
and close the latch retainers and rod guides.
∆ Make sure that the air compressor is set at an
operating pressure of not more than 120 PSIG
(8Bar)
∆ Make sure air line is cleaned out and is of the
proper size and pressure rating for the drill unit.
∆ Make sure the lubricator is filled with proper
lubricant. See Minnich recommended lubricant
below.
∆ Make sure all controls are in the “off” position
and the lift lever (if so equipped) is in the “up”
position.
∆ Make sure all lock pins are in their locked posi-
tion.

GENERAL SAFETY
Connect/start
Storage
If the vibration intensity drops, check that the
filters are not clogged or that hoses are not
kinked.
To properly store unit after use, hang the
vibrator with the head up and set the handle
(variable control assembly) in the open position
to permit the discharge of possible impurities,
contaminants and water.
Placement and consolidation
The force exerted by an internal concrete vibra-
tor is controlled by the weight and the speed
at which the eccentric rotates. The centrifugal
force exerted can be arrived at by various com-
binations of weight (size of eccentric weight)
and the speed at which the weight rotates. For
years the most favorable working speed for a
vibrator was considered to be around 10,200
RPM (VPM) and consequently this figure is used
in many vibrator comparisons. More recently,
the optimum speed for compaction has been
accepted as being between 7500 and 9000
RPM.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS
Be sure lubricator is full. See recommended oils below.
Make sure slab wheels are square against face of slab.
Using feed control valve, feed bit against slab.
Using drill control valve, turn drill on and drill until the
drill slider is against the stop clamp, which should be
set for the required depth of hole.
Once drill slider is against the stop clamp, leave the
drill on and use the feed control valve to retract the
drill from the hole. Note: If bit will not retract from hole,
feed drill back into hole and retract drill again.

Troubleshooting Air Drill
Cause Remedy
DRILL NOT GETTING AIR 1. On Multi Drill units, switch airline with drill
that is working properly. If drill now runs
check the air control valve. If the valve works,
check the drill.
2. Check clave on air compressor and drill unit
to be certain they are completely open
3. Check compressor. It should have 100SCFM
(47.20m^3/sec.) per drill and 110PSI (7.6 BAR)
at drill manifold when drilling with large drills.
4. Make certain all fittings are connected prop-
erly and not leaking.
COUPLING OR HOSE OBSTRUCTION Remove Obstruction
FAILURE IN THE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT Check switches, connections, coils, ground &
voltage. If the power unit (backhoes, grader,
ETC.) is being jump started, check the AMPS &
voltage being jump supplied to coils from the
battery, it may be too low.
FAILURE OF DRILL SOLENOID VALUE
(MULTI DRILL UNITS WITH REMOTE
ELECTRICAL CONTROLS)
Check valve - you should be able to feel the so-
lenoid move when it is actuated. Make sure you
have current to the solenoid coil. Replace the
dolenoid if there is no movement.
MECHANICAL FAILURE OF DRILL Disassemble the drill & inspect for damaged
parts.
PROBLEM: DRILL DOES NOT RUN

Troubleshooting Air Drill
Cause Remedy
NOT ENOUGH AIR REACHING
DRILL. IT SHOULD HAVE 100SCFM
(47. 2D M^3/sec.) PER DRILL AND 110
PSI (7.6 bar)
On Multi Drill units. Turn off one or two drills. If
the remaining drills pick up speed, check the air
compressor.
RESTRICTION IN AIR LINE A foreign object in the air line or possibly a
reduction in the air line caused by a reducer
fitting.
TOO SMALL AIR LINE Following are supply line sizes for drilling:
A-1 Single Drill 3/4” (19mm)
A-2 Two Drills 1-1/4” (38.75mm)
A-3& A-4 Three & four drills 1-1/2” (38.1mm)
A-5 Five Drills 2” (50.8mm)
AIR PRESSURE TO CYLINDER “FEED-
ING” DRILL INTO CONCRETE NOT
ADJUSTED PROPERLY
Excessive pressure can cause drill to “bind up”
in the hole. Pressure that is too low will not
“feed” the drill into the concrete. The air pres-
sure required varies with the drill model.
Horizontal- all units with large drills use 22-26
PSI (1.5-1.8 bar). Drill units using the 15LB (6.8kg)
class drill will use 16-20 PSI (1.1-1.4 Bar).
Vertical - all drill units use 5-6 PSI (0.34-0.41
Bar). With the correct air pressure, the drill steel
should have a slight rattle.
INSUFFICIENT AIR FLOW TO KEEP
HOLE BLOWN CLEAN
Check for obstruction in the blow tube in the
drill.
LUBRICATOR PUTTING OUT TOO
MUCH OIL TO DRILL
If you notice more than a light film of oil on the
air deflector on the bottom of the drill adjust the
lubricator, make certain you are using the type of
oil called for in the operation and maintenance
manual.
MECHANICAL BLINDING OF DRILL
CARRIER
Make sure the eight bearing pads are adjusted
correctly. The square tube that the drill carrier
slides on must be free of rust so that the carrier
slides freely, drill steel must not be binding in
the guide bearing.
BENT DRILL STEEL, WORN DRILL BIT
OR DRILLING INTO REBAR
Replace the drill steel or bit. If drilling into rebar,
move the drill.
USING 3 1/4” (8.25cm) SHANK DRILL
STEEL IN 4 1/4” (10.8cm)SHANK
CHUCK DRILL
The drill steel will rotate but it will not allow the
drill piston to hammer properly, replace it with
the correct 4 1/4” (10.8cm) drill steel.
PROBLEM: DRILL RUNS SLOW OR DOES NOT DRILL EFFECTIVELY
