2. Instruccions generals de seguretat
ADVERTIMENT! Llegiu totes les advertències, instruccions, il·lustracions i especificacions de seguretat proporcionades amb aquesta eina elèctrica. L'incompliment de totes les instruccions que s'indiquen a continuació pot provocar descàrregues elèctriques, incendis i/o lesions greus.
Seguretat de l'àrea de treball
- Mantenir la zona de treball neta i ben il·luminada. Les zones desordenades o fosques conviden a accidents.
- No feu servir eines elèctriques en atmosferes explosives, com ara en presència de líquids, gasos o pols inflamables. Les eines elèctriques generen espurnes que poden encendre la pols o els fums.
- Mantingueu els nens i els espectadors allunyats mentre feu servir una eina elèctrica. Les distraccions poden fer que perdis el control.
Seguretat elèctrica
- Els endolls de les eines elèctriques han de coincidir amb la presa de corrent. No modifiqueu mai l'endoll de cap manera. No utilitzeu cap endoll adaptador amb eines elèctriques posades a terra. Els endolls no modificats i els endolls coincidents reduiran el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.
- Eviteu el contacte corporal amb superfícies connectades a terra, com ara canonades, radiadors, estufes i refrigeradors. Hi ha un major risc de descàrrega elèctrica si el vostre cos està connectat a terra o a terra.
- No exposar les eines elèctriques a la pluja o a condicions humides. L'entrada d'aigua en una eina elèctrica augmentarà el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.
- No abuseu del cordó. No utilitzeu mai el cable per transportar, estirar o desconnectar l'eina elèctrica. Mantingueu el cable allunyat de la calor, l'oli, les vores afilades o les peces mòbils. Els cables danyats o enredats augmenten el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.
Seguretat personal
- Estigueu alerta, observeu el que feu i feu servir el sentit comú quan utilitzeu una eina elèctrica. No utilitzeu una eina elèctrica mentre esteu cansat o sota els efectes de drogues, alcohol o medicaments.
- Utilitzeu equips de protecció individual. Utilitzeu sempre protecció ocular. Els equips de protecció com ara una màscara antipols, sabates de seguretat antilliscants, casc o protecció auditiva utilitzats en condicions adequades reduiran les lesions personals.
- Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source, picking up, or carrying the tool.
- Traieu qualsevol clau d'ajust o clau anglesa abans d'encendre l'eina elèctrica. Una clau anglesa o una clau deixada connectada a una part giratòria de l'eina elèctrica pot provocar lesions personals.
- No sobrepasseu. Mantingueu els peus i l'equilibri adequats en tot moment. Això permet un millor control de l'eina elèctrica en situacions inesperades.

6. Instruccions de funcionament
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, before operating the drill.
Power On/Off and Variable Speed
- Connect the drill to a 220V (200-240V) power outlet.
- Per engegar el trepant, premeu el gallet. La velocitat és variable segons la profunditat amb què premeu el gallet.
- For continuous operation at a constant speed, press the lock button while the trigger is pressed. Release the trigger to disengage the lock.
- To turn off the drill, release the trigger switch. If the lock button is engaged, press the trigger fully and then release it to disengage the lock and turn off the tool.
Rotació cap endavant i inversa
The forward/reverse switch is located near the trigger. Push it to the left for forward rotation (drilling and screwing in) and to the right for reverse rotation (unscrewing).
Aplicacions
- Perforació:
- Fusta: Use appropriate wood drill bits. Max drilling diameter: 20mm.
- Metall: Use appropriate metal drill bits. Max drilling diameter: 10mm (steel), 13mm (aluminium).
- Tile/Light Masonry: Use appropriate masonry drill bits. While the tool is primarily a rotary drill, it can handle light masonry tasks.

- Emmagatzematge: Store the drill in a dry, secure location, out of reach of children and away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
8. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| El trepant no arrenca | No power supply; Faulty power cord; Trigger switch malfunction | Check power outlet and connections. Inspect power cord for damage. If issues persist, contact service. |
| Pèrdua de potència durant el funcionament | Overload; Worn carbon brushes; Insufficient voltage | Reduce load. Check power supply. Have carbon brushes inspected/replaced by service. |
| Vibracions o sorolls excessius | Loose drill bit; Damaged chuck; Internal component issue | Ensure bit is securely fastened. Inspect chuck for damage. If severe, seek professional service. |
| La broca rellisca al mandril | Chuck not tightened sufficiently; Worn chuck jaws; Incorrect bit size | Retighten chuck. Ensure bit shank is clean. If chuck is worn, it may need replacement. |
| Sobreescalfament | Blocked ventilation; Prolonged heavy use; Overload | Clean ventilation slots. Allow tool to cool down. Avoid continuous heavy loads. |
9. Consells d'usuari
- Chuck Type Selection: If you frequently change bits for different tasks, the GBM 400 KL with its keyless self-locking chuck offers greater convenience. For applications requiring maximum grip and precision, the GBM 400 with its keyed metal chuck is ideal.
- Perforació de maçoneria: While the product is described as an "Electric Hammer Drill" in some features and can drill into tile/brick, it is primarily a rotary drill. For heavy-duty concrete or stone drilling, a dedicated hammer drill with a more robust impact mechanism would be more suitable. For light masonry, ensure you use appropriate masonry drill bits.
- Compatibilitat de bits: Always use drill bits and screwdriver bits that are compatible with the chuck's clamping range (0.8-10mm for KL, 1-10mm for standard) to prevent slippage and damage.
- Control de velocitat variable: Utilize the variable speed trigger for starting holes slowly and increasing speed as needed. Lower speeds are generally better for screwing and drilling into harder materials, while higher speeds are efficient for softer materials.
