3. Configuració

Proper setup ensures safe and effective drilling.

  1. Seleccioneu el trepant correcte: Ensure you are using a rotary drill. This bit is not for hammer drills.
  2. Unplug the Drill: Before inserting or removing the drill bit, always ensure the drill is unplugged from the power source or its battery is removed.
  3. Open the Chuck: Rotate the drill chuck counter-clockwise to open the jaws wide enough to accept the drill bit shank.
  4. Insereix el bit: Insert the shank of the BM2018 masonry drill bit into the chuck. Ensure it is inserted as far as possible without the flutes touching the chuck jaws.
  5. Estrenyeu el mandril: Rotate the chuck clockwise to securely tighten the jaws around the drill bit shank. For keyless chucks, hand-tighten firmly. For keyed chucks, use the chuck key to tighten securely, ensuring all three jaws grip the bit evenly.
  6. Verifica la seguretat: Give the drill bit a gentle tug to confirm it is firmly seated and will not slip during operation.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

Follow these steps for effective drilling in masonry, brick, and block.

  1. Marqueu la ubicació de la perforació: Marqueu clarament el punt exacte on voleu perforar.
  2. Posicioneu el trepant: Hold the drill firmly with both hands, ensuring a stable grip. Align the drill bit with the marked spot at a 90-degree angle to the surface.
  3. Comença lentament: Begin drilling at a slow speed to create a pilot indentation and prevent the bit from walking. The precision manufacturing of this bit helps reduce walking.
  4. Augmenta la velocitat i la pressió: Once the bit has engaged the material, gradually increase the drill speed. Apply steady, moderate pressure. Avoid excessive force, which can cause the bit to overheat or break.
  5. Maintain Consistent Speed: For optimal performance, maintain a consistent drilling speed. This bit is designed for efficient material removal, even in high-speed modes.
  6. Neteja els residus: Periodically withdraw the drill bit slightly from the hole to allow debris to clear from the flutes. This prevents clogging and reduces heat buildup.
  7. Completa el forat: Continueu perforant fins a assolir la profunditat desitjada.
  8. Retirar el bit: Once the hole is complete, slowly withdraw the drill bit from the hole while the drill is still rotating.

5. Manteniment

Proper maintenance extends the life and performance of your drill bit.

  • Neteja: Després de cada ús, netegeu la broca per eliminar la pols i les restes. Es pot utilitzar un raspall dur o aire comprimit.
  • Lubricació (opcional): For very hard materials or prolonged drilling, a small amount of cutting fluid or water can be used to cool the bit and reduce friction. Ensure the drill is rated for wet drilling if using water.
  • Emmagatzematge: Store the drill bit in a dry place to prevent rust. Keep it in its original packaging or a drill bit case to protect the carbide tip from damage.
  • Inspecció: Regularly inspect the bit for signs of wear, dullness, or damage. A dull bit will drill slowly and generate excessive heat. Replace worn or damaged bits immediately.

6. Solució De Problemes

Aquests són alguns problemes comuns i les seves solucions:

  • Bit is drilling slowly or not cutting:
    • The bit may be dull or worn. Replace the bit.
    • Insufficient pressure is being applied. Increase steady pressure.
    • Debris is clogging the flutes. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear debris.
  • Bit is overheating:
    • Excessive pressure or speed. Reduce pressure or speed.
    • Lack of debris removal. Clear flutes more frequently.
    • Prolonged continuous drilling. Allow the bit to cool down.
  • Bit is walking or slipping at the start:
    • Not starting at a slow speed. Begin drilling at a very slow speed until the bit bites into the material.
    • Insufficient grip on the drill. Ensure a firm, two-handed grip.
  • Vibració excessiva:
    • Bit is bent or damaged. Replace the bit.
    • Bit is not properly secured in the chuck. Re-tighten the chuck.
