Frequently Asked Questions - 5019K BLACK & DECKER

How do I install a bit in the Black & Decker 5019K chipping hammer?

Clean the bit shank and apply grease. Push the retainer button, insert the bit with its groove facing downward, fully seat it, then release the button. To remove, push the retainer button and pull out.

What do the LED indicators mean on the 5019K?

The red LED indicates carbon brushes are nearly worn and service is needed after ~8 hours. The green LED lights when tool is ON. If green is lit but tool doesn't start, it's a motor issue; if not lit, check switch, cord, or outlet.

How can I adjust the impact energy of the hammer?

Turn the Electronic Impact Control dial to a setting from 1 (low, for delicate materials) to 7 (full power for hard materials). The required setting depends on the material hardness.

What type of extension cord should I use with this hammer?

Use a grounded, 3-wire extension cord rated for the current. For 120V, up to 50 ft use 18 AWG for 6-10A; for longer runs, use heavier gauge. For outdoor use, use an outdoor-rated cord.

Can I use the 5019K chipping hammer outdoors?

Yes, but avoid rain and damp locations. Use an extension cord marked for outdoor use. Wear rubber gloves and non-skid footwear for safety.

How do I clean and lubricate the hammer?

Use mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the exterior. Never let liquid inside or immerse any part. The tool has self-lubricating bearings, so no periodic lubrication is required.

How do I assemble and adjust the side handle?

Snap the steel ring over the collar behind the tool holder, squeeze ends, mount bush, insert pin. Place side handle (narrow end forward) over bush/pin, add washer and clamp knob. Rotate to desired angle (e.g., 20° for heavy drilling) and tighten knob fully.

What is the warranty coverage for the 5019K?

It comes with a 1-year free maintenance program and a full warranty against defects. B&D will repair or replace defective tools. The warranty excludes misuse, unauthorized repairs, and normal wear after first year.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Important Safety Instructions

WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Grounding Instructions

This tool should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and 3-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal. If your unit is intended for use on less than 150 V, it has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch A. If it is for use on 150 to 250 V, it has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch D. An adapter, sketches B and C, is available for connecting sketch A type plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box. No adapter is available for a plug as shown in sketch D. ADAPTER SHOWN IN FIGURES B and C IS NOT FOR USE IN CANADA.

Safety Instructions For All Tools

• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
• CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't expose power tools to rain. Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use tool in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from work area.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high or locked-up place — out of reach of children.
• DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
• USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not intended.
• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
  • USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
• DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
  • DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

• DISCONNECT OR LOCK OFF TOOLS when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.

• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.

• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
• EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

Additional Safety Instructions for Hammers

• WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES or other eye protection.
  • WEAR EAR PROTECTORS when hammering for extended periods.
• ALWAYS USE THE SIDE HANDLE supplied with the tool. Keep a firm grip on the hammer when it is operating.
• DON'T OVERREACH. Maintain a firm, balanced working stance. When necessary, use only properly positioned, safe platforms, ladders and scaffolds, to do the job safely.
• Hammer bits and tools get hot in operation. Wear gloves when touching them.
• CAUTION: When drilling or driving into walls, floors or wherever "live" electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY FRONT METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle to prevent shock if you drill or drive into a "live" wire.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Motor

Your tool is powered by a B&D built motor. Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking.

Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. All B&D tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply.

Side Handle (Fig. 1)

ALWAYS OPERATE THE TOOL WITH THE SIDE HANDLE PROPERLY ASSEMBLED.

1. Snap the steel ring over the collar behind the tool holder. Squeeze both ends together, mount the bush and insert the pin.

Figure 1

1. Place the side handle, with the narrow end toward the front of the tool, over the bush and pin.
2. Place the washer over the hole in the side handle, and insert the clamp knob. Screw in the clamp knob, but do not tighten.
3. Rotate the side handle mounting assembly to the desired position. For drilling horizontally with a heavy drill bit, place the side handle assembly at an angle of approximately 20° for optimum control.
4. Lock the side handle in place by fully tightening the clamp knob.

Electronic Impact Control (Fig. 2)

The electronic impact control allows you to adjust the impact energy of the hammer. For optimal control and precise chiseling of light and brittle materials, use a lower setting. A higher setting provides power for harder materials.

Figure 2

To set the control dial: Turn the dial to the desired level. The higher the number, the greater the impact energy. With dial settings from "1" to "7" (full power) the tool is extremely flexible and adaptable for many different applications. The required setting depends on the hardness of material being chiseled.

Service and Power Indicator LEDs

(FIGURE 2) The RED service indicator LED lights up when the carbon brushes are nearly worn out to indicate that the tool needs servicing. After approximately 8 hours of use the motor will automatically be shut off. Take the tool to a B&D service location for routine inspection and maintenance.

The GREEN power-ON indicator LED lights up when the tool is switched ON. If the indicator LED is lit but the tool does not start, this indicates a motor related problem. If the indicator LED does not light up and the tool does not start, this indicates an ON/OFF switch, cord or outlet related problem.

Bit Installation (Fig. 3)

1. Clean, then smear the bit shank with grease.
2. Push in the retainer button and insert the bit with the groove downward. Fully insert the bit shank into the hammer.
3. Release retainer button. To remove the bit, push in retainer button and pull out bit.

Maintenance and Inspection

CAUTION: Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug during maintenance and inspection.

INSPECTING THE BIT

Since use of a dull bit will degrade efficiency and cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace the bit as soon as abrasion is noted.

INSPECTING THE MOUNTING SCREWS

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in serious hazard.

Important

To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment (including brush inspection and replacement) should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.

Cleaning & Lubrication

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
