Frequently Asked Questions - RT-RH 20 Kit EINHELL

How to change the chuck of the RT-RH 20 drill?

To change the chuck, first make sure the tool is unplugged. Use the special key (if supplied) or a hex screw to loosen the chuck. Turn counterclockwise to remove it, then mount the new chuck clockwise. Tighten firmly.

How to use the hammer function?

Set the mode selector to the hammer symbol. Use this function only for drilling in masonry or concrete. For wood or metal, use normal drilling mode.

What is the power of this drill?

The Einhell RT-RH 20 Kit drill has a rated power of 700 W and variable speed from 0 to 2800 rpm. This allows drilling in steel up to 10 mm, in wood up to 25 mm, and in concrete up to 20 mm.

How to adjust the rotation speed?

Press the trigger progressively to increase speed. The harder you press, the faster the rotation. There is no mechanical speed selector; the speed is electronically variable.

How to clean the drill after use?

Unplug the tool. Use a dry cloth or slightly damp cloth to wipe the housing. Never immerse the drill in water. Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a soft brush.

Should I use the auxiliary handle?

Yes, for your safety, always use the auxiliary handle supplied. It provides better control and reduces the risk of injury in case of bit jamming.

What to do if the drill heats up abnormally?

Let it cool down in open air. Check that the ventilation slots are not blocked. If the problem persists, the carbon brushes may be worn; replace them with original parts.

How to drill effectively in concrete?

Use a hammer drill bit suitable for concrete. Set the mode selector to hammer. Apply moderate pressure and let the tool work. Use the depth stop to control depth.

What types of drill bits to use with this drill?

The chuck accepts bits with cylindrical shank from 1 to 10 mm. For wood, use wood bits; for metal, HSS bits; for concrete, hammer bits with carbide tip.

How to store the drill correctly?

Store it in a dry place away from dust. Unplug the power cord. Use the carrying case supplied in the kit to protect the tool.

2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not properly guided and maintained.

6. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment.

Check the drilling point for concealed electrical cables, gas and water pipes using a cable/pipe detector.

6.1 Additional handle (Fig. 2 - Item 6)

For safety reasons you must only use the hammer drill with the additional handle.

The additional handle (6) enables you to achieve better stability whilst using the equipment. Do not use the equipment without the additional handle. The additional handle (6) is secured to the equipment by a clamp. Turning the handle clockwise tightens this clamp. Turning it anti-clockwise will release the clamp.

●The supplied additional handle (6) must first be fitted. To do this, turn the handle until the clamp is opened wide enough for you to slide the additional handle onto the equipment.
●After you have mounted the additional handle (6), swivel it to the most comfortable working position for yourself.
●Now turn the handle in the opposite direction again until the additional handle is secure.
●The additional handle (6) is suitable for both left-handed and right-handed users.

6.2 Depth stop (Fig. 3 - Item 7)

The depth stop (7) is held in place with the locking screw (10) on the additional handle (6) by means of a clamp.

●Undo the locking screw (10) and fit the depth stop (7).
- Set the depth stop (7) to the same level as the drill bit.
●Pull the depth stop (7) back by the required drilling depth.
●Retighten the locking screw (10).
- Now drill the hole until the depth stop (7) touches the workpiece.

6.3. Tool insertion (Fig. 4)

●Clean the tool before insertion and apply a thin coating of drill bit grease to the shaft of the tool.
●Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (2).
- Insert the dust-free tool into the tool mounting as far as it will go whilst turning it. The tool will lock itself.
- Check that it is properly secure by pulling the tool.

6.4. Tool removal (Fig. 5)

Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (2) and remove the tool.

7. Starting up

Important.

To prevent all danger, the machine must only be held using the two handles (5 / 6). Otherwise there may be a risk of suffering an electric shock if you drill into cables.

7.1 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 6/Item 4)

●First fit a suitable drill bit into the tool (see 6.3).
- Connect the mains plug to a suitable socket.
●Position the drill in the position you wish to drill.

To switch on:

Press the ON/OFF switch (4)

Continuous operation:

Secure the ON/OFF switch (4) with the locking button (8).

Important. It may only be locked if the drill is set to rotate clockwise.

To switch off:

Press the ON/OFF switch (4) briefly.

7.2 Adjusting the speed (Fig. 6/Item 4)

●You can infinitely vary the speed whilst using the tool.
- Select the speed by applying a greater or lesser pressure to the ON/OFF switch (4).
- Select the correct speed: The most suitable speed depends on the workpiece, the type of use and the drill bit used.
●Low pressure on the ON/OFF switch (4): Lower speed
●Greater pressure on the ON/OFF switch (4): Higher speed

Tip: Start drilling holes at low speed. Then increase the speed in stages.

Benefits:

●The drill bit is easier to control when starting the hole and will not slide away.
- You avoid drilling messy holes (for example in tiles).

7.3 Preselecting the speed (Fig. 6/Item 11)

●The speed setting ring (11) enables you to define the maximum speed. The ON/OFF switch (4) can only be pressed to the defined maximum speed setting.
- Set the speed using the setting ring (11) on the ON/OFF switch (4).
- Do not attempt to make this setting whilst the drill is in use.

7.4 Clockwise/Counter-clockwise switch (Fig. 6/Item 9)

●Change switch position only when the drill is at a standstill!
●Switch the direction of the hammer drill using the clockwise/counter-clockwise switch (9):

Direction

Switch

Clockwise (forwards and drill) Pushed in to the right

Counter-clockwise (reverse) Pushed in to the left

7.5 Drill / Hammer drill / Chisel selector switch (Fig. 7)

●For drilling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position A.
●For hammer drilling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position B.
- For chiseling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position C. In switch position C the chisel is not locked.
●For chiseling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position D. The chisel is locked in position D.

Important.

Only low pressure is required for hammer drilling.

Excessive pressure will exert an unnecessary force on the motor. Check the drill bits at regular intervals.

Sharpen or replace blunt drill bits.
