2 MACHINE DESCRIPTION
Any modification, which could lead to a change in the original characteristics of the machine, may
be done only by Saint-Gobain Abrasives who shall confirm that the machine is still in conformity with
the safety regulations.
2.1 Short description
The CDR 133 core drill rig is designed for durability and high performance for onsite wet and dry
drilling operations of a wide range of masonry and natural stone products.
As with all other NORTON products, the operator will immediately appreciate the attention given to
detail and quality of materials used in construction. The machine and its component parts are
assembled to high standards assuring long life and minimum maintenance.
2.2 Purpose of use
The machine is designed for drilling a large range of building materials. It is not designed for drilling
wood or metals, except steel reinforcing securely embedded in concrete.
2.3 Layout
There are two main parts on the core drilling rig CDR 133: the motor and the rig itself.
The rig is made of sectional aluminium, which reduces the weight of the machine allowing easy
transportation. The base ensures stability of the rig, and allows two ways of fixing the rig: using a
vacuum pump or fixing anchors. The rig is equipped with a collar, so that the motor can be fitted or
removed quickly from the rig
Three different types of electric motor are available on the CDR 133, offering excellent quality of
drilling and extended life duration. Every motor is equipped with a P.R.C.D. (Portable Residual
Current Device). This circuit breaker protects the motor from an electrical overload. The P.R.C.D. is
a circuit breaker and not a switch. Always stop the motor using its switch and not the P.R.C.D.

The exposure time to vibration is based on the performance of work (related to the adequacy
Machine / Tool / worked material / operator)
When evaluating risks due to hand-arm vibration, you need to take into account effective usage
at rated power of machine during a full day of work; quite often you will realise that effective
utilisation time represents around 50% of overall duration of work. You have to consider, of
course, breaks, water feeding, preparation of work, time to move the machine, disk mounting…

3 ASSEMBLY AND COMMISSIONING
3.1 Assembling the motor on the rig
To assemble the motor on the collar, loosen the tightening screw. Then fit the motor in the collar.
Retighten the screw so the motor cannot move in the collar.
3.2 Tool assembly
Only NORTON core bit can be used with the CDR 133.
All tools used must be selected with regard to their maximum permitted cutting speed for the
machine’s maximum permitted rotation speed.
Before assembling a new bit into the machine, switch it off and isolate it from the main source of
electricity.
To assemble a new bit, follow these steps:
Remove the motor from the rig.
Use two spanners to dismount the old bit: one to lock the motor axle, and the other to unscrew
the bit. Do not grip on threaded parts.
Grease the thread of the motor axle and of the bit.
For bits with a 1¼‘’ fitting, insert a bronze or brass washer between the motor axle and the core
bit.
Adapters are available in case core bit and motor axle do not fit together.
Screw the new core bit. Tighten using the two spanners. Check that it is completely locked on
the motor axle.
3.3 Electrical connections
Electrical connections
Check that,
the voltage/phase/current supply corresponds to the information indicated on the motor plate.
available power supply has a ground connection in conformity with safety regulations. If you
have any doubt, let a qualified electrician verify your installation.
the connecting cables should have at least a 2.5mm2-section per phase if you use extensions.
Security Device P.R.C.D.
This circuit breaker must be connected to an electrical supply having the neutral connector and the
earth connector separated. If there is a connection between these two connectors anywhere on the
electrical net, the P.R.C.D. will automatically cut the circuit.
Therefore, check with a qualified electrician, that this separation is correctly made on your electrical
system.
If you use extension cables, make sure they have three wires.
This device can be uncertain with a generator. Ask the manufacturer of the generator if the coils are
properly separated.

VERS.2015.05.19 Kit CDR 133 + CDM 163_MAN_EN
14
This device works also as NVR (“No Volt Release”). It stops the electrical supply of the machine
during a power cut. Therefore, when electricity returns, the machine will not start. You have to
reengage the P.R.C.D. to continue to work.
Before working with the CDR 133, you have to test the P.R.C.D. In order to achieve this follow these
instructions:
Connect the motor to the electrical supply.
Engage the P.R.C.D. on I (or ON).
Press the T (or TEST) button: the P.R.C.D. has to trip on 0 (or OFF).
If the P.R.C.D. trips during work, switch the machine off, and separate it from the electrical supply.
Examine and repair the fault by checking every element of the system (connectors, cables, motor).
3.4 Changing motor speed
Always switch the motor off before changing speed. Turn the gear change lever on the next or
previous gear. Turn the bit spindle by hand to allow the gear alignment.
Repeat these operations until you reach the required gear.
3.5 Water cooling
Ensure that water is flowing freely in the circuit as insufficient water supply may result in premature
failure of the diamond core bit.
To supply the machine with water:
Use the connector on the side of the motor. You can use either the water supply or a manual or
electrical pump.
Check if the water flow is right by looking through the cutting water. If it is fluid, the flow rate is
correct. If it is not fluid, but like mud or paste, you either have to check if the water system is
blocked, or increase the water flow rate.
Obstruct the existing hole when have to enlarge it, so you can obtain a correct cooling water
inflow.
Eliminate the water escape ways and increase the flow rate to the maximum when you have to
drill porous or cracked materials, or make a second drill.
Use a water-collecting device when you drill overhead.
In case of frost, empty the water cooling system.

4 TRANSPORT AND STORING
Take the following measures in order to transport the CDR 133 securely.
4.1 Securing for transport
Dismount the core bit, separate the motor from the rig, and the motor from electrical supply.
4.2 Transport procedure
Use only surface transport to move the CDR 133. No part of the machine has been designed to lift
the CDR 133.
4.3 Long period of inactivity
If the machine is not going to be used for a long period, completely clean the machine. Store the
machine in a dry aired and clean place.

5 OPERATING THE MACHINE
You will find useful description of how to use the machine properly.
5.1 Site of work
5.1.1 Siting the machine
Remove from the site anything, which might hinder the working procedure!
Make sure the site is sufficiently well lit!
Observe the conditions for connecting to power supplies!
Place electric cables in such a way that damage by the CDR 133 is excluded!
Make sure you have a continual adequate view of the working area so you can intervene in the
working process at any time!
Keep other staff out of the area, so you can work securely.
5.1.2 Space required for operation and maintenance
Leave 2 m around the machine for usage and maintenance of the CDR 133.
5.2 Drilling method
5.2.1 Preparing the cut
Make sure that it is well anchored or clamped firmly when the material to be drilled is not part of
a big construction.
Before drilling a reinforced-concrete construction, make sure you will not damage the structure.
Make sure the drilling will not damage any gas or plumbing pipelines, or electrical wires.
Only use the plastic handle of the machine, and no metal parts, to operate the CDR 133,
especially when electrical wires might be submerged.
Make sure before drilling that the core will not cause damage to anything or anyone by falling
out of the hole. Always delimit and sign the working area and place warning signals around it.
If the core can cause damage by falling out of the hole, make the right framework to hold the
core when you stop drilling.
To choose the core bit rotation speed, use the graph on page, which gives the range of speed to
use according to the diameter of the hole.
Before starting your work, check the fixing and stability of the core bit.
Use the right tools as recommended by the manufacturer depending on the material to be drilled
and the required efficiency.
Apply cooling water continuously whilst drilling and in good time!
5.2.2 Fixing the rig
Only use NORTON tools to fix the rig. Always fix the rig before assembling the motor on the rig.
When drilling overhead or horizontally into a wall, extra safety provision should be made with the
use of a support sling to the drilling rig, in case of failure of anchor or vacuum.

VERS.2015.05.19 Kit CDR 133 + CDM 163_MAN_EN
17
Fixation with a dowel
To fix the drill rig, you need a 15mm-dowel, a 30cm-long threaded rod, a washer and a wing nut.
Bore a 15mm-diameter and 50mm-depth hole and clean it.
Use the appropriate tool to set the dowel in the hole.
Screw the threaded rod in the dowel.
Place the rig so that the threaded rod goes through the oblong hole in the base.
Insert the washer on the rod, and screw the wing nut thoroughly.
You can adjust the rig by using the screws in the corners of the base.
Fixation with a vacuum pump
Fix the pump on the base of the rig.
Place the rubber joint under the base.
Place the machine where you want to bore, and hold it firmly.
Start the vacuum pump. You have to reach a pressure under 0,65bar to have a sufficient
adhesion of the rig.
If you cannot reach this pressure, try to smooth the surface for example with plaster.
5.2.3 Drilling perpendicularly to the surface
Once your motor is engaged on the right gear, and the rig placed and fixed at the right position, you
can begin your cut. Follow these instructions:
Put the handle back on the nut, which allows the movement of the cutting head.
Engage the P.R.C.D.
Open the water supply.
Start the motor with the core bit not touching the surface.
Using the handle, lower slowly the core bit until it lightly touches the surface.
Slowly turn the handle to make the first centimetre of your drilling. By doing so, you ensure that
your hole will be perfectly centred.
You can then increase the drilling feed speed. If you drill too slowly, you lower the machine
efficiency. Drilling too fast results in premature wear of the diamond segments.
5.2.4 Slanting holes
You can incline the head along the rig to make slanting holes:
Remove the screw on the front of the rig, and loosen the two screws on the side of the rig. Keep
the front screw, as you will have to reassemble it next you want to use the rig perpendicularly to
the surface.
Adjust the rig until you reached the required angle.
Retighten the two screws on the side of the rig.
Start drilling very slowly because the bit attacks the drilled material only with a little part of its cutting
surface, even with only one of its diamond segments. By drilling slowly, you avoid misalignment of
the core bit.
5.2.5 Drilling of steel rods in reinforced concrete
When you see that:
The core bit goes ahead very slowly.
The force you have to make on the hand wheel increases.
The water going out of the hole is clear and there are some metallic splints in it.

VERS.2015.05.19 Kit CDR 133 + CDM 163_MAN_EN
18
You are going through the steel rods for reinforced concrete. Follow these instructions:
If possible, select a lower gear. Remember that you must firstly take the core bit out of the hole
and switch the motor off in order to change from gear.
Reduce the thrust on the core bit.
Once you have finished cutting the rods, you can reselect the initial gear and drilling speed.
5.2.6 Mechanical clutch
The motor is equipped with a mechanical clutch. It protects against mechanical overload of the
motor. However, the motor might be damaged if it works longer than two seconds. Therefore reduce
the drilling force and switch the motor off.
5.2.7 Breakaway of a segment
When diamond segments, slivers of steel or parts of your drilled material come away during drilling,
and prevent the core bit from drilling, abandon the hole and make another hole, with the same axis
of the first but with an larger diameter (15-20mm).
5.2.8 End of the drilling
When you have made the hole you want to drill:
Lift the core bit out of the hole.
Stop the motor by using the switch and not the P.R.C.D.
Stop the water supply.
5.2.9 Pulling the core out of the bit
Unscrew the core bit from the motor axle.
Hold the bit vertically.
Beat lightly the tube of core bit with a wood hammer until the core goes out. Never beat the core
bit with violence against a wall or with tools like hammers or wrenches. Otherwise, you may
distort the tube, preventing the core from coming out of the core bit and the re-use of the bit.
If the core is stuck into the bit, try to crush it with a chisel. Be careful not to damage the core bit.
5.2.10 Pulling the core out of the hole (blind holes)
Using a wedge or a lever, snap the core.
To extract the core out of the hole use the special pliers or a wire loop, or make a little hole into
the top of the core and put into it an eyebolt to pull up and remove the core.
5.2.11 Drilling using an extension rod
To make hole deeper than the tool length:
Make the hole for the full depth of the bit.
Take the bit out of the hole and switch the motor off.
Take the core out of the hole without moving the machine.
Unscrew the core bit from the motor axle and put it into the hole.
Screw the extension rod between the core bit and the motor axle. For 1¼’’ back fitting end,
insert a brass or bronze washer.
