Frequently Asked Questions - BH-G 726 EINHELL

How to insert an SDS-Plus drill bit?

Unplug the tool. Pull the locking sleeve back, insert the drill bit while turning until it stops, then release the sleeve. Check the lock by pulling on the bit.

How to adjust the drilling depth stop?

Loosen the clamping screw on the additional handle. Insert the depth stop into the handle, align it with the clamped drill bit, then read the value on the scale. Subtract the desired depth and retighten the screw.

How to switch to hammer drilling mode?

Set switch (3) to position 'T' (fig. 7) and switch (4) to position 'T' (fig. 9). Select right rotation and start at reduced speed.

How to use the chiseling function?

Set switch (3) to position (fig. 7) and switch (4) to position (fig. 10). Use a suitable chisel (pointed or flat).

What safety precautions should I take?

Wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask. Always use the additional handle and hold the tool with both hands. Make sure there are no hidden pipes before drilling.

How to clean the rotary hammer?

Unplug the tool. Clean the ventilation slots with compressed air or a dry cloth. Do not use caustic agents on plastic parts.

What to do in case of excessive sparking?

Stop the tool immediately and have the carbon brushes checked by a specialist. Replace them if necessary.

Can I use ordinary drill bits?

Yes, by using the supplied toothed ring chuck. Replace the SDS-Plus chuck with the toothed ring chuck, then insert standard drill bits.

How to change the rotation direction?

Operate selector (5) only when the tool is stationary. Position 'R' for right rotation, position 'L' for left rotation.

3. Use

This electric hammer drill is designed for drilling in wood and metal, for hammer drilling in concrete, stone and masonry, and for screwdriving in wood and metal in the DIY sector. The machine also features a chiseling function for working in concrete and masonry. It is to be used only with suitable accessories (see data published by the manufacturer). All other uses are expressly prohibited.

4. Important information

Please read these directions for use carefully and put all the information into practice. This manual will acquaint you with the machine's features, its correct use and essential safety rules.

Safety rules

The BH-G 726 is not designed to drive attachment appliances.
- Use the machine for its intended purpose only.
- Never use the machine near vapors or combustible liquids.

• Use only sharp drill bits and screwdriving bits.
  Always unplug the machine before cleaning it or changing drill bits etc.
• Keep the power cable safe from damage. Oil and acids can damage cables.
• Never carry the machine by its power cable.
• Never remove the plug from the socket-outlet by tugging on the power cable.
  Make sure the power switch is off before you plug in the machine.
  Always keep the power cable away from where you want to drill.
• Extension cables must have a minimum conductor cross section of 1.5mm^2 . If you use a cable reel, run all the cable off the reel.
• Outdoor socket-outlets must have earth-leakage circuit-breakers.
• Never overload the machine.
  Always use the machine with the additional handle.
  Always hold the machine with two hands when it is running.
  Make sure of your footing, particularly when working free-handed on ladders or scaffolding.
• Secure all workpieces so they cannot slip.

6. Preparations

6.1 General information

Use a detector to localize pipes and/or cables in walls with concealed electric, water or gas lines.
- Before you plug in the machine, check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate.

6.2 Fitting a bit (Figure 2)

The hammer drill comes with an SDS-Plus chuck.

Pull out the power plug!
Clean the shaft of the SDS-Plus drill bit (a) chisel bit (14/15) or scroll chuck (13) and coat it with a little machine grease before you insert it.
Pull back the locking sleeve (17) and hold in this position while you insert the bit with a twist as far as it goes into the SDS-Plus chuck (1).
- Let go of the locking sleeve (17). The bit will automatically be locked in place.
- Pull on the bit to check that it is secure.

6.3 Removing a bit

• Unplug the machine!
  Pull back the locking sleeve (17).
  Pull the bit out of the chuck (1).

6.4 Fitting the additional handle (Figure 3)

For safety reasons you should always use the hammer drill with the additional handle (4).

• Slacken the clamping screw (11).
• Slide the additional handle (4) over the chuck and turn to the desired position.
• Re-tighten the clamping screw (11) to fix the additional handle (10) in this position.

6.5 Setting the drilling depth stop (Figure 3/4)

• Insert the drill bit and lock in place.
• Slacken the clamping screw (11).
• Insert the drilling depth stop (2) in the handle and slide it forward until it extends the same distance as the drill bit. This is best done by holding the tip of the bit against the wall.
  Note the mm reading on the scale of the drilling depth stop (2) and deduct the desired drilling depth from this value.
• Set the calculated value on the drilling depth stop (2) and tighten the clamping screw (11)

7. Starting up

7.1 Selecting the speed (Figure 5)

Always follow the speed recommendations issued by the manufacturer of the accessories you are using. This will minimize the strain on materials.

• Turn the wheel selector (6) to set the hammer drill to the required speed. Turn the wheel in PLUS (+) direction to increase the speed. Turn the wheel in MINUS (-) direction to reduce the speed.
• Infinite variation of the speed up to the speed preset with the selector wheel (6) is possible by applying more or less pressure to the On/Off switch (7).
• With the On/Off switched (7) locked for continuous operation the machine will run at the preset speed.

7.2 On/Off switch

Instant response operation:

Switching on: Press On/Off switch (7)

Switching off: Release On/Off switch (7)

Continuous operation:

Switching on: Press On/Off switch (7), keep pressed and lock with the locking button (8)

Switching off: Press On/Off switch (7) and release

7.3 Clockwise/anticlockwise selector switch (Figure 5)

• For hammer drilling, chiseling, drilling and driving in screws: Set the direction switch (5) to position R for clockwise rotation.

For removing screws: Set the direction switch (5) to position ,L " for anticlockwise rotation.
- Actuate the direction switch (5) only when the machine is at a standstill.

7.4 Drill/hammer selector switch (Figure 6/7)

• For drilling with hammer action in concrete or masonry, set the selector switch (3) to position (Abb. 7) and the selector switch (4) to position (Figure 9). Set the machine for clockwise rotation and start at a low speed. Thanks to the electropneumatic hammer mechanism used in this machine, drilling performance is not dependent on the pressure you apply (unlike conventional hammer drills). Applying more pressure does not increase the performance.
• For drilling in wood and metal or for driving and removing screws, set the selector switch (3) to position (Figure 8) and the selector switch (4) in position (Figure 9). If you want to use conventional wood or metal drill bits or screwdriver bits, insert the scroll chuck (9) (see section 6.2). Set the machine for clockwise rotation (or anticlockwise rotation for removing screws). Set the required speed with the wheel selector (6) and press the On/Off switch to start the machine.

7.5. Chiseling (Figure 7/10)

• For chiseling in concrete or masonry, set the selector switch (3) to position T(Figure 7) and the selector switch (4) to position J(Figure 10).

8. Maintenance

• Keep the air vents in the machine clean and unblocked at all times.
• Remove dust and dirt from the machine at regular intervals. This is best done by blowing with compressed air or by wiping with a rag.
• Do not use aggressive agents to clean plastic parts.
• If sparking is excessive, check the carbon brushes.
