Service Overview

Service Recommendations

Preventive maintenance is recommended at regular intervals. See the detailed information on preventive maintenance. If the product is not working properly, take it out of service and inspect it.

If no detailed information about preventive maintenance is included, follow these general guidelines:

  • Clean appropriate parts accurately

  • Replace any defective or worn parts

Preventive maintenance

Make sure to perform a preventive maintenance every 6 months. If it is used in heavy duty conditions or not running properly, it should be removed from operation for inspection more often.

Installation

Installation Requirements

Air Quality

  • For optimum performance and maximum product life we recommend the use of compressed air with a maximum dew point of +10°C (50°F). We also recommend to install an Atlas Copco refrigeration type air dryer.

  • Use a separate air filter which removes solid particles larger than 30 microns and more than 90% of liquid water. Install the filter as close as possible to the product and prior to any other air preparation units to avoid pressure drop.

For impulse/impact tools make sure to use lubricators adjusted for these tools. Regular lubricators will add too much oil and therefore decrease the tool performance due to too much oil in the motor.

Make sure that the hose and couplings are clean and free from dust before connecting to the tool.

Both lubricated and lubrication free products will benefit from a small quantity of oil supplied from a lubricator.

CAUTION

Cutting Hazard

Protect hands from drill bits and other sharp objects when changing accessories or during repair work. Sharp objects can cut and cause injuries.

  • Always wear protective gloves when changing accessories or during repair work.

  • Remove the protective gloves before starting the tool.

  1. Position the support handle for either right- or left handed operation.

  2. Drain the hose of air pressure before connecting to air supply.

  3. Tighten the drill bit in place with a chuck. A keyed chuck uses a rotary key to tighten and loosen the chuck. A keyless chuck is operated by hand.

    Never drill a hole that is larger than the rated capacity for the drill.

    The motor requires no additional lubrication during operation.

  4. Connect the tool to the air supply.

  5. Use the appropriate drilling speed for the application.

  6. To start the tool, press the trigger.

    When lubrication is recommended - only use lubricants recommended by Atlas Copco.

Operation

Ergonomic Guidelines

Consider your workstation as you read through this list of general ergonomic guidelines to identify areas for improvement in posture, component placement, or work environment.

  • Take frequent breaks and change work positions frequently.

  • Adapt the workstation area to your needs and the work task.

    • Adjust for a convenient reach range by determining where parts and tools need to be located to avoid static load.

    • Use workstation equipment such as tables and chairs appropriate for the work task.

  • Avoid work positions above shoulder level or with static holding during assembly operations.

    • When working above shoulder level, reduce the load on the static muscles by lowering the weight of the tool, using for example torque arms, hose reels or weight balancers. You can also reduce the load on the static muscles by holding the tool close to the body.

    • Take frequent breaks.

    • Avoid extreme arm or wrist postures, particularly during operations requiring a degree of force.

  • Adjust for a convenient field of vision that requires minimal eye and head movements.

  • Use appropriate lighting for the work task.

  • Select the appropriate tool for the work task.

  • In noisy environments, use ear protection equipment.

  • Use high-quality inserted tools and consumables to minimize exposure to excessive levels of vibration.

  • Minimize exposure to reaction forces.

    • When cutting:

      A cut-off wheel can get stuck if the cut-off wheel is bent or not guided properly. Use the correct flange for the cut-off wheel and avoid bending the cut-off wheel during operation.

    • When drilling:

      The drill might stall when the drill bit breaks through. Use support handles if the stall torque is high. The safety standard ISO11148 part 3 recommends using a device to absorb a reaction torque above 10 Nm for pistol grip tools and 4 Nm for straight tools.

    • When using direct-driven screwdrivers or nutrunners:

      Reaction forces depend on the tool settings and joint characteristics. Strength and posture determine the amount of reaction force that an operator can tolerate. Adapt the torque setting to the operator's strength and posture and use a torque arm or reaction bar if the torque is too high.

  • In dusty environments, use a dust extraction system or wear a mouth protection mask.

Operating Instructions

Safety Lever

The function of the safety lever is to avoid unintentional starting of the tool.

Make sure the tool is equipped with a safety lever.

To start the power tool:

  1. Flip the safety lever locker.

  2. Push down the safety lever.
