Product Overview
The HiKOKI D 10VF, D 10VG, D 13VF, and D 13VG are professional-grade electric drills designed for drilling into metal, lumber, and plastics. These tools feature a robust motor and are available in different chuck capacities (10 mm or 13 mm) depending on the model.
Safety Precautions
Always follow general power tool safety warnings. Ensure the work area is clean and well-lit. Use personal protective equipment, including eye protection. Always hold the tool securely with both hands using the side handle to maintain control, especially when drilling larger diameters or through-holes.
Operation
- Starting: Start drilling slowly and gradually increase speed.
- Pressure: Apply pressure in a straight line with the drill bit. Avoid excessive pressure that could stall the motor or deflect the bit.
- Stalling: If the drill stalls, release the trigger immediately, remove the bit from the workpiece, and restart. Do not repeatedly toggle the trigger.
- Angle Attachment: For D13VF and D13VG models, an optional angle attachment can be used. Always remove the angle attachment from the drill before attempting to loosen the chuck.
Maintenance and Inspection
- Drill Bits: Replace or resharpen abraded drill bits immediately to prevent motor malfunction and maintain efficiency.
- Mounting Screws: Regularly inspect all mounting screws for tightness.
- Motor: Keep the motor winding clean and free from oil or water.
- Carbon Brushes: Inspection and replacement of carbon brushes should only be performed by a HiKOKI Authorized Service Center.
