2. MARKETING OBJECTIVE The Model DH 24PD3 is an upgraded version of the current Model DH 24PD2, which features the concrete drilling capacity with the maximum drill bit diameter 24 mm and the use of SDS-plus shank tools. The performance and the durability are greatly improved.
4-1. Selling Point Descriptions 4-1-1. Class-top drilling speed The drilling speed of the Model DH 24PD3 is 1.5 times higher than B and 1.3 times higher than C and D thanks to the efficient transmission of the hammering energy. 4-1-2. More comfortable and frisky drilling The Model DH 24PD3 can drill holes more comfortably and friskily with a light pushing force because the quantity of body jumping is 20% less than C.

6-2. Drilling Speed Comparison Drilling speed varies considerably depending on the work conditions. Use the factory test results shown in Fig. 1 for comparison purpose only. Fig. 1 [Test conditions] Direction : Downward drilling Pushing force : 98 N (10 kgf) Test material : Concrete panel with a compression strength of 2,352 N/cm (240 kgf/cm...
6-3. Dust Collection Efficiency Comparison Dust collection efficiency varies considerably depending on the work conditions. Use the factory test results shown in Fig. 2 for comparison purpose only. Figure 2 shows a comparison of dust collection efficiency based on the drilling of 50 mm (2") holes into wall material with a dia. 14.5 mm (9/16") drill bit. Fig.
7. PRECAUTIONS IN SALES PROMOTION In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Model DH 24PD3 rotary hammer by all of our customers, it is very important that at the time of sale the salesperson carefully ensures that the buyer seriously recognizes the importance of the contents of the Handling Instructions, and fully understands the meaning of the precautions listed on the Caution Plate attached to each tool.
8-2. Dust Collection Mechanism As illustrated in Fig. 3, the Model DH 24PD3 is provided with a dust fan chamber, consisting of casing (A) and casing (B), located between the gear cover and housing. Dust is drawn in from the nozzle of the dust collection adapter ass'y by the suction provided by the dust fan mounted inside the dust fan chamber, and is deposited in the dust bag.

Model DH 24PD3 more compact for easier handling and operability. Thus, the appearance of the Model DH 24PD3 is similar to that of an impact drill. The rotation of the armature is transmitted to the second shaft via the first gear, and causes it to rotate. The second pinion assembled on the second shaft via the first gear, engages the second gear mounted on the outer circumference of the cylinder.

O-ring be replaced approximately once a year, depending on the frequency of usage of the tool. Idle hammering prevention mechanism The idle hammering prevention mechanism in the Model DH 24PD3 is different from that of conventional rotary hammers. When the drill bit is lifted from the concrete surface on completion of drilling, the second hammer moves to the position indicated by the continuous lines in Fig.
Page 20
Fig. 7 Slip mechanism The slip mechanism in the Model DH 24PD3 consists of a coil spring which applies a pre-set amount of pressure to ensure the interlocking of three claws provided on the flange of the cylinder (the final rotating shaft) and three matching claws provided on the face of the second gear, by which rotation is transmitted to the cylinder.
Speed control The Model DH 24PD3 is equipped with a variable speed control switch which permits free change of the rotation speed and hammering force. When drilling in fragile materials, pull the switch trigger gently for low rotation speed (hammering force) to achieve optimum results. Note that the switch trigger cannot be pulled to the full but up to the half in the reverse drilling, and the speed is about half of the forward drilling.
8-6. Drill Bits The chuck section is designed exclusively for the popular and widely available SDS-plus shank bits, as shown in Fig. 8. Rotating torque is transmitted to the drill bit by two key rails provided in the tool holding section. A steel ball is used to prevent the bit from falling out.
8-8. Dust Collector (B) When drilling holes overhead, dust collector (B) can be mounted on the Model DH 24PD3 to prevent dust and chips from falling downward. Dust collector (B) is intended solely for use when drilling holes in concrete, and cannot be used for drilling holes in steel or wood.

9. PRECAUTIONS IN DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY The [Bold] numbers in descriptions below correspond to the item numbers in the Parts List and exploded assembly diagrams. 9-1. Disassembly (1) Disassembly of the dust collection mechanism: Refer to Fig. 12 and Fig. 13. Remove the four Tapping Screws (W/Flange) D5 x 90 [9] which fix the Gear Cover [10], provided between Casing (B) [46] and the Gear Cover [10] (including the Inner Cover Ass'y [40]), and turn the screwdriver gently to open a gap between them.
Page 26
(2) Disassembly of the dust collection adapter ass'y Disassembly of the Hose Ass'y [101] only Loosen the knob that fixes the stopper, and push pipe (A) to its maximum stroke position. This will cause the Hose Ass'y [101] connection portion of pipe (A) to come out of the rear end of pipe (B). In that state, pull on the Hose Ass'y [101] to separate it from pipe (A).
