An impact drill enables you to drill into various kinds of material :
plaster, concrete, brick, breeze-blocks, metal, wood, etc.
When drilling using the impact function, the machine makes it easier for you by using the
drill as a hammer. The impact function requires the relevant drill bits to be used.
• A drill can also be used, providing the correct accessories are used, to screw, sand, polish, mill, brush or mix.
The mechanical speeds, if your machine has them, function like a gear box :
- Slow speed = maximum torque (force).
- High speed = reduced torque.
• Depending on the model, the trigger switch can be fitted with a wheel for adjusting the chuck rotation speed.
This function is very useful for adjusting the speed of the tool to the material being drilled.
• The harder you press the trigger button, the faster the chuck rotates.
• The torque adjustment, if your machine is fitted with this, means that you can set the required torque, by
disengaging the motor (stopping the screwdriver function). This means that you can screw to a uniform depth,
without damaging the material you are screwing into. Very useful for screwing into plasterboard or laminates,
for example.
• To screw or unscrew, you simply insert into the chuck a screwdriver bit that fits the shape of the screw.
• Adapt the rotation speed of the chuck to the diameter of the drill :
- Small diameter = high speed
- Large diameter = low speed
• There are a number of different drill types :
- Wood drill (for drilling into wood)
- Metal drill (for drilling into metal and plastic)
- Masonry drill (for drilling into concrete and brick)
• The higher the impact speed, the easier it is to drill.
• The level gauge, if your machine is fitted with one, makes it possible to ensure
that you are working perpendicular to the surface.
• The digital display, if your machine has one, show the preselected settings
(for example, rotation speed).
• The lighting function, if your machine has one, makes it more comfortable
to work with in dark environments.
• The laser, if your machine has one, produces a The laser, if your machine has one,
produces a beam of light which show you where the tool will go.show you where
the tool will go.
