VERIFICATIONS AND ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: if the machine is new or has been idle for a long period, pour some oil directly into
the drill supply pipes for more rapid initial lubrication.
•Check that there is a sufficient amount of lubricating oil in the tank 8 (Appendix II) of the
lubricator. If not consult page “Maintenance: Adding Oil”.
•Make certain that the compressor supplies enough pressure to position the gauge needle 3
(Appendix II) in the green field of the dial corresponding to 5,5 - 7 bar.
WARNING: this pressure should be kept constantly in the green area during the drill (ideal
pressure 6 bar).
Regulate the passage of the correct amount of oil using the adjustment screw (Appendix II, pos.10).
RECOMMENDED: For proper lubrication, disconnect the feed hose and supply compressed air.
The air should be slightly oily (check with the palm of the hand).

11
USING THE MACHINE
WARNING: before using the machine, check that it is well anchored to the ground and that all
the bolts and air hoses are correctly tightened.
Fitting the down the hole hammer (DTH)
1. The machine is generally supplied with the down the hole hammer fitted to the rotating
head.
2. The same hammer, has the drilling bit fitted to its bottom end. The type of bit is the one
requested by the customer, or the most suitable one for the material to be drilld.
3. To fit a down the hole hammer not supplied with the machine, strictly follow the
instructions of the company that supplied the hammer.
4. The down the hole hammer is screwed on in a clockwise direction to the output group
of the rotating head. Before fitting, make sure that the threaded fitting is the same as
the one on the rotating head: cylindrical RD50 or API Regular 2" 3/8 conical.
5. The down the hole hammer must be tightened with the special wrenchs supplied (see
"Extension rod joint" page 12).
Using the machine
1. Supply the control unit by opening the valve 12 (Appendix II).
2. Check that the gauge needle 3 (Appendix II) oscillates within the green
field on the dial.
3. Approach the hammer bit to the surface to be drilled. This is performed
by lowering the distribution lever 2 (Appendix II) towards position B of fig.6.
The distributor commands the advance of the rotating head - down the hole
hammer group.
4. Open the valve 13 and rotate and percuss the hammer by lowering
distribution lever 1 (Appendix II) towards position B of fig.6. The hammer bit
rotates clockwise. Release the stopper 6 on the pressure regulation 5 (fig.7)
by unscrewing it anti-clockwise.
5. Regulate the head rotation using the pressure regulator 4 by screwing
and/or unscrewing the knob 5 (fig.7).
6. Drilling has now started.
WARNING: advance only serves to keep the bit close
to the rock to be drilld, and not to keep it pressed
against the rock itself.

12
EXTENSION ROD JOINTING
At the end of the drilling limit:
1. Block the advance, rotation and percussion by closing the respective distributors (Appendix II, pos. 1,
pos 2, pos 13).
2. Recover the play of the carriage springs 3 (Appendix I) by slightly lifting up the rotating head (fig.8
and fig.9).
3. Insert the wrench supplied into the seat (a) of the output group
and turn it against the column. This prevents the reducer from
advancing and the rotating head from
becoming damaged by counter-blows
while changing the rods. (fig.10).
4. Insert the wrench supplied into the
seat (b) of the hammer or rod and
keeping the wrench contrasted in (a)
against the column, release the
hammer or rod by applying a few
hammer blows to the wrench in the
seat (b) (fig.10).
5. Remove the wrenchs, rotate the rotating
head in an anticlockwise direction (pos. A of
distributor 1 - fig.5 page 9) and unscrew the
hammer or the rod. Position the rotating
head high on the column, almost as far as it
will go.
6. Manually screw the extension rod onto the hammer or possibly onto the other
rod found in the hole (fig.11).
7. Advance the rotation head and make it rotate clockwise (pos. B of distributor 1 -
fig.5 pag.9) and screw it to the rod or the hammer.
8. After checking that the rod has been screwed both to the head and the hammer
(or possibly to the other rod still found in the drill), start drilling again.
For more joints, repeat the operations described.
WARNING: never unscrew the rods or the hammer with just the force of the rotation head. Keep
the control unit as far away as possible from the column to prevent accidental manouvres.

ROD AND HAMMER RECOVERING
1. Block the advance, rotation and percussion by closing the respective distributors and valve 2, 1,
13 Appendix III.
2. Position the rotating head high on the column almost as far as it will go.
3. Insert the wrench supplied into the seat (d) of the rod which finds
itself in the hole and make it rest on the rod guide. In the case of
vertical drilling, this wrench serves to prevent the rods from falling
into the drill at the moment they are unscrewed from the rotating
head.
4. Insert the wrench supplied into the seat (a) on the rotating head
and wedge it against the column.
5. Insert the wrench supplied into the seat (b)
6. Hit the wrench inserted in seat (b) with a hammer and release the
rod, by making it rotate in a clockwise direction.
7. Remove the wrenchs from seats (a) and (b), rotate the head and
unscrew it from the rod.
8. Position the rotating head high up on the column to almost as far
as it will go.
9. Insert the wrench into seat (c), wedge the wrench in seat (d)
against the column; hit the wrench in seat (c) with a hammer to
release the rod and then unscrew it.
10. We have now removed the 1st rod.
11. Approach the rotation head of the 2nd rod which is still found in
the drill.
12. Screw the head to the rod to then make it rise up pulling the
rod with it.
13. By repeating the procedure described, we recover the other
rods and the hammer.
WARNING: never try to unscrew the rods or the hammer with the
force of the rotation head alone. Keep the control unit as far away
from the column as possible with the purpose of avoiding any
accidental manouvres.

MAINTENANCE
Adding Oil
WARNING: before proceeding with the oil addition operations, stop the machine, close the
compressor air supply and discharge any air remaining in the control panel by opening valve 13
Appendix II. This is important because it is dangerous to remove the plug or the lubricator tank
with the control panel under pressure.
To add oil to the line lubricator, with the machine at a standstill and not powered up, unscrew the screw
plug 11 Appendix II and add oil, or directly release the tank by pressing button 19 and by rotating the
lock ring.
If the long idle periods are foreseen, or if the machine is made to operate after being idle for a long time,
pour oil directly into the supply inlets of the rotating head and the advance motor and rotate them slowly
for a few turns to lubricate the mechanical parts well.
Oil to use:
•Mobil ALMO 527
•Petrol Ofisi ROCKDRILL 100
•Shell TORCULA 100
Grease to use:
•Petrol Ofisi SUPERGRES EP00
•Shell GADUS 00
•Mobil LUX EP00
Periodical Controls
Daily: Check the oil level.
Check that all the bolts and the air hoses are suitably tightened
Check the chain tension and adjust it with the tightener 14 (Appendix I) if necessary check the
integrity and wear of the bit.
Weekly: grease the chain pinion 2 (Appendix I) of the advance group using the greasers provided (Part.
A Appendix I). Use the recommended grease or an equivalent one.
Check that the neck of the sphere is free from cracks. If you notice any cracks, suspend machine use.

HAMMER BIT SHARPENING
In use, the down the hole hammer bit wears
changing the shape of the teeth (Fig.15a) and
that of the teeth support (Fig.15b).
It is therefore necessary to regenerate both
the tooth shape and that of the teeth support.
Using the special sharpening machine, (optional) with a suitable
cylindrical tool of adequate dimensions, remove the right
amount of material from the teeth support to return the teeth to
a suitable height.
(Fig.16a-b-c).
Change the tool on the sharpener with one with a semi-
spherical profile and reconstruct the tooth's profile in
(Fig.17a-b-c).

16
Figure 19
Reconstructing the tooth support
Concerning the tooth support, it is also necessary to reconstruct the side because its original shape is
lost through wear, tending to become straight, chamfered and rounded. (Fig.18).
During drilling, the bit teeth wear leaving the tooth support exposed to a greater diameter.
Using a lathe or a lapping grinder, it is necessary to remove
material from the sides of the teeth support to restore the initial
inclination, without which it is not possible to work correctly.
(Fig.19).
NOTES:
The indications given, mainly concern tools for working granite, which given the hardness of this
material are subject to greater wear. It is therefore nece ssary to resharpen them more frequently.
Tools used for softer materials, such as marble for example, wear much less and require re-sharpening
more rarely. The procedure is anyway the same.
Figure 18

17
AIR RECIEVER (OPTIONAL)
1. Connect the condensation separator to the drilling machine (pos. 17 Appendix III) using the
rubber hose supplied (1.300 mm. long) screwed to the AIR OUTLET SIDE.
2. On the AIR INPUT side, open the air supply ball valve from the compressor.
3. From time to time, when the drilling machine is operating, slightly open the discharge valve (A)
to purge the condensed water. To prevent unnecessary air consumption, this valve must be
kept partially open only during drilling.
