2. General Safety Instructions

Always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury when operating power tools.

• Electrical Safety: Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
• Personal Safety: Always wear eye protection. Use hearing protection when operating noisy tools. Dress properly; avoid loose clothing or jewelry. Secure long hair.
• Tool Use and Care: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
• Kickback: Be aware of potential kickback, especially when drilling into hard materials or if the bit binds. Maintain a firm grip on the tool.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Selecting Operating Mode

The INGCO RH150038 offers three functions: Hammer Drilling, Drilling, and Chiseling. Use the function selector switch located on the top of the tool to choose the desired mode.

Figure 5.1: The function selector switch for Hammer Drilling and Chiseling modes.

• Hammer Drilling Mode: For drilling into brickwork, concrete, and stone. This mode combines rotation with hammering action.
• Drilling Mode: For drilling into wood, metal, and plastics without hammering action. (Note: This mode is typically represented by a drill bit icon, though not explicitly shown in the provided image, it's a standard 3-function feature).
• Chiseling Mode: For light demolition work, chipping, and channeling in concrete, stone, and plaster. This mode provides hammering action without rotation.

5.2 General Operation

1. Ensure the correct bit is installed and the desired operating mode is selected.
2. Plug the tool into a suitable power outlet (220V).
3. Hold the tool firmly with both hands, using the main handle and the auxiliary handle.
4. Position the bit on the workpiece.
5. Press the On/Off switch to start the tool.
6. Apply steady, even pressure. Do not force the tool; let the tool do the work.
7. To stop the tool, release the On/Off switch.

• Cleaning: After each use, clean the tool with a dry cloth. Remove any dust or debris from ventilation openings. Do not use water or chemical cleaners.
• Lubrication: Periodically apply the provided grease to the SDS-Plus chuck and bit shanks to ensure smooth operation and reduce wear. Refer to Figure 3.2 for the grease tube.
• Carbon Brushes: The tool is equipped with replaceable carbon brushes. If the motor performance decreases or sparks become excessive, the carbon brushes may need replacement. Refer to Figure 3.2 for spare carbon brushes. Consult a qualified technician for replacement if you are unsure.
• Cord Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord for damage. If damaged, have it repaired by a qualified service agent.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your rotary hammer, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Tool does not start:
  • Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet.
  • Verify the On/Off switch is fully engaged.
  • Inspect the power cord for damage.
• Reduced power or excessive sparking:
  • Carbon brushes may be worn. Replace them as described in the Maintenance section or consult a technician.
  • Ensure the correct voltage (220V) is being supplied.
• Bit not rotating or hammering effectively:
  • Check if the function selector is in the correct mode for the task.
  • Ensure the SDS-Plus bit is correctly inserted and locked into the chuck.
