When operating a power tool outside, use an out-  
door extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These  
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of  
electrical shock.  
General Safety Information  
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure  
to follow all instructions listed below may  
result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious  
personal injury.  
Use only three-wire extension cords which have  
three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole re-  
ceptacles which accept the tool’s plug. Use of other  
extension cords will not ground the tool and increase  
the risk of electrical shock.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!  
Work Area Safety  
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered  
Use proper extension cords. (See chart.) Insufficient  
conductor size will cause excessive voltage drop, loss  
of power.  
benches and dark areas invite accidents.  
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-  
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable  
liquids, gases, or dust. Tools create sparks which  
may ignite the dust or fumes.

Electrical Safety  
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet,  
properly installed and grounded in accordance  
with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the  
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do  
not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified  
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the out-  
let is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically  
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low  
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.  
Keep all electric connections dry and off the  
ground. Do not touch plugs or tool with wet hands.  
Reduces the risk of electrical shock.  
Personal Safety  
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-  
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not  
use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,  
alcohol, or medications. A moment of inattention  
while operating power tools may result in serious per-  
sonal injury.  
Grounded  
Receptacle  
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-  
elry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and  
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jew-  
elry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.  
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is OFF  
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on  
the switch or plugging tools in that have the switch ON  
invites accidents.  
Extension Cord  
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces. There  
is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is  
grounded.  
Remove adjusting keys before turning the tool  
ON. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating  
part of the tool may result in personal injury.  
Do not expose electrical tools to rain or wet con-  
ditions. Water entering a tool will increase the risk of  
electrical shock.  
Do not over-reach. Keep proper footing and bal-  
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables  
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.  
Do not abuse cord. Never use the cord to carry the  
tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord  
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.  
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged  
cords increase the risk of electrical shock.  
Wear hearing protectors, ear plugs or muffs when  
using tool. Noise level may affect hearing with pro-  
longed use.  
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-

Core Drilling Machine is made to drill holes in  
granite, masonry and steel reinforced concrete.  
Follow instructions on proper use of this machine.  
Do not use for other purposes. Other uses or mod-  
ifying this machine for other applications may increase  
the risk of serious injury.  
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on  
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your ex-  
posure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated  
area and work with approved safety equipment, such as  
those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out  
microscopic particles.  
Do not wear loose cloth gloves or loose clothing  
when operating machine. Wear only leather gloves.  
Keep sleeves and jackets buttoned. Do not reach  
across the machine or drill bit. Clothing can be  
caught by the machine resulting in entanglement and  
serious injury.  
Tool Use and Care  
Do not use if switch does not turn it ON or OFF.  
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is  
dangerous and must be repaired.  
Disconnect the plug from the power source before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories  
or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures  
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
Use extreme caution when drilling through floors.  
Provide protection of all personnel and material  
below the area. Cores generally drop from the drill at  
completion of the hole.  
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and  
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in  
the hands of untrained users.  
Keep fingers and hands away from drill bit. This  
practice will prevent entanglement and reduces risk of  
being cut.  
Check for misalignment or binding of moving  
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition  
that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged,  
have the tool serviced before using. Many acci-  
dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.  
Secure drill stand to the work surface. Use bolts,  
ceiling jack or vacuum hold-down. Do not secure  
with a vacuum hold-down when drilling on vertical  
surfaces such as walls. Drill stand must be prop-  
erly secured to prevent bit damage and serious injury.  
Use only accessories that are recommended for  
your tool. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool  
may become hazardous when used on another tool.  
When releasing carriage locking handle, maintain  
a firm grip on feed handle to prevent feed handle  
from revolving due to weight of drill. Rotating han-  
dle can result in injury.  
Keep handles dry and clean; free from oil and  
grease. Allows for better control of the tool.  
Do not force drill bit. Drill should be used at a  
speed and feed rate that does not overload the  
motor. When starting bits, do not use more than two  
12extensions. Less likely to bind and lose control.  
Service  
Tool service must be performed only by qualified re-  
pair personnel. Service or maintenance performed  
by unqualified repair personnel could result in injury.  
When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-  
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance  
Section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or  
failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a  
risk of electrical shock or injury.

moving parts that may damage electrical cord.  
4. Inspect the Core Drilling Machine for any broken,  
missing, misaligned or binding parts as well as any  
other conditions which may affect the safe and normal  
operation of the machine. If any of these conditions  
are present, do not use the machine until any problem  
has been repaired.  
2. Clean up the work area prior to setting up any  
equipment. Move tools and debris to prevent slips  
and falls.  
3. Make sure drill motor ON/OFF switch is in the OFF  
position.  
5. Lubricate the Core Drilling Machine if necessary ac-  
cording to the Maintenance Instructions.  
4. When plugging the Core Drilling Machine into the  
electrical outlet make sure to position the power cord  
along the clear path selected earlier. Use an exten-  
sion cord in good condition.  
6. Use drill bits and accessories that are designed for  
your Core Drilling Machine and meet the needs of your  
application. The correct tools and accessories allow  
you to do the job successfully and safely. Accessories  
designed for use with other equipment may be haz-  
ardous when used with this Core Drilling Machine.  
WARNING  
To avoid electrical shock and electrical  
fires, never use an extension cord that is damaged or  
does not meet the following requirements:  
The cord has a three-prong plug similar to shown  
in Electrical Safety section.  
7. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all handles and  
controls. This reduces the risk of injury due to a tool or  
control slipping from your grip.  
The cord is rated as Wor W-Aif being used  
outdoors.  
The cord has sufficient wire thickness (12 AWG  
below 50). If the wire thickness is too small, the  
cord may overheat, melting the cords insulation or  
causing nearby objects to ignite.  
Inspect the cutting edges of your drill bits. If neces-  
sary, have them replaced prior to using the Core  
Drilling Machine. Bit is considered worn when the  
crown shows excessive wear and has become flush  
with tube. Dull or damaged cutting tools can lead to  
binding and tool breakage.

NOT recommended on rough or cracked floor conditions,  
holes deeper than one bit length, or steel concentration  
greater than standard rebar.  
WARNING  
Do not use Vacuum Anchor Method to  
mount machine to a wall.  
Drilling machine must be properly secured to the  
work surface to prevent serious injury to the op-  
erator.  
Movement during drilling will cause chatter of bit  
against work surface, fracturing diamonds. Bit  
may also bind in hole causing damage to the bit.  
Vacuum Anchor method should not be used to  
mount machine to a wall.  
1. Turn machine on its back and insert vacuum seal  
(Figure 3) under machine base, inspecting first to en-  
sure seal is in good condition and sealing groove is

4. With water control valve shut OFF. connect water  
inlet hose to drill and water source.  
NOTE! Vacuum can be released by turning vacuum  
release valve (Figure 2).  
NOTE! Water can be supplied by a standard garden  
hose or by a pressure tank. Water is fed through  
inlet hose, down inside of bit, washing cuttings  
from under bit crown, up and outside of hole. Be  
sure that any method used has adequate water  
pressure to supply a flow of 1-2 gallons per  
minute. Lack of water can cause diamonds to  
polish or burn the bit causing bit end to turn blue.  
Ceiling Jack Anchor Method  
1. Cut pipe or wood to the required length to fit be-  
tween ceiling and ceiling jack screw (Figure 1) on  
top of mast.

Operating Instructions  
WARNING  
Before turning drill motor ON, be certain  
WARNING!  
that machine is securely anchored.  
7. Turn drill motor ON/OFF switch to ON position.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT apply full load until entire bit  
crown has penetrated the material.  
8. Turn feed handle to apply load on bit. To prevent bit  
from wandering, apply light pressure on feed handle  
while starting to drill.  
Do not wear cloth gloves or loose clothing when  
operating Drilling Machine. Keep sleeves and jack-  
ets buttoned. Do not reach across the machine.  
Keep hands and fingers away from drill bits.  
NOTE! The AMP-meter has a green and red area to in-  
dicate proper pressure and drilling speed,  
preventing motor overload and providing longer  
bit life. The green area is the working range;  
the red area indicates too much pressure being  
applied. Keep Amp-meter needle in the green  
area. Too little pressure can polish bit and too  
much can cause undue wear.  
Do not use this Drilling Machine if the ON/OFF  
switch or other controls are broken. Always wear  
eye protection to protect eyes from dirt and other  
foreign objects.  
Do not use Drilling Machine if it is not securely an-  
chored.  
9. Drill bit feed should be uniform without excessive  
force. Drilling penetration of 1to 4per minute may  
be achieved in concrete depending on material and bit  
diameter. Proper feed pressure is determined by load  
on motor and reading on Amp-meter. To maximize life  
of drill bit, regulate feed rate so that needle on Amp-  
meter is in upper green area of 20 amp range. If  
needle goes into red area above 20 amps, decrease  
feed rate as undue bit wear will result.  
1. Thread the drilling bit (Figure 4) onto drilling spindle  
(Figure 1) and tighten securely with bit wrench.  
CAUTION  
Never turn drill ON with bit resting on  
the concrete.  
2. Check hole alignment by lowering drill until it is about

10. Your control panel amp-meter will go into the red  
area when you hit steel. When you encounter rebar,  
lessen feed feed rate to allow needle to return to the  
green area.  
Installing Bit Extension Rods  
In order to drill deeper than the 13long bit will allow, bit  
extension rods must be used. Drilling rate will be slower  
because of the extra amount of drag on the bit walls.  
NOTE! It is recommended that after cutting steel, you  
stop and break out core and any loose pieces of  
steel, then proceed.  
NOTE! When it is necessary to place the drilling ma-  
chine above the surface being drilled, do not  
use a bit extension rod that is longer than 12.  
CAUTION

Ce que nous ferons pour résoudre le problème  
What we will do to correct problems  
Les produits sous garantie seront à la discrétion de RIDGE TOOL, soit réparés ou remplacés, puis  
réexpédiés gratuitement ; ou si, après trois tentatives de réparation ou de remplacement durant  
la période de validité de la garantie le produit s’avère toujours défectueux, vous aurez l’option de  
demander le remboursement intégral de son prix d’achat.

What is not covered  
Ce qui nest pas couvert  
Les défaillances dues au mauvais emploi, à l’abus ou à l’usure normale ne sont pas couvertes par  
cette garantie. RIDGE TOOL ne sera tenue responsable d’aucuns dommages directs ou indirects.  
Failures due to misuse, abuse or normal wear and tear are not covered by this warranty. RIDGE  
TOOL shall not be responsible for any incidental or consequential damages.  
How local law relates to the warranty  
Linfluence de la législation locale sur la garantie  
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,  
so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific  
rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary, from state to state, province to  
province, or country to country.  
Puisque certaines législations locales interdisent l’exclusion des dommages directs ou indirects,  
il se peut que la limitation ou exclusion ci-dessus ne vous soit pas applicable. Cette garantie vous  
donne des droits spécifiques qui peuvent être éventuellement complétés par d’autres droits  
prévus par votre législation locale.  
No other express warranty applies  
This FULL LIFETIME WARRANTY is the sole and exclusive warranty for RIDGID products. No  
employee, agent, dealer, or other person is authorized to alter this warranty or make any other  
warranty on behalf of the RIDGE TOOL COMPANY.

Qué cubre  
Las herramientas RIDGID están garantizadas contra defectos de la mano de obra y de los  
materiales empleados en su fabricación.  
Duración de la cobertura

ducto a RIDGE TOOL COMPANY, en Elyria, Ohio, o a cualquier Servicentro Independiente

y devuelto sin costo; o, si aún resulta defectuoso después de haber sido reparado o sustituido  
tres veces durante el período de su garantía, Ud. puede optar por recibir un reembolso por el valor  
total de su compra.  
Lo que no está cubierto  
Esta garantía no cubre fallas debido al mal uso, abuso o desgaste normal. RIDGE TOOL no se  
hace responsable de daño incidental o consiguiente alguno.  
Relación entre la garantía y las leyes locales  
Algunos estados de los EE.UU. no permiten la exclusión o restricción referente a daños inci-  
dentales o consiguientes. Por lo tanto, puede que la limitación o restricción mencionada  
anteriormente no rija para Ud. Esta garantía le otorga derechos específicos, y puede que,  
además, Ud tenga otros derechos, los cuales varían de estado a estado, provincia a provincia o  
país a país.  
No rige ninguna otra garantía expresa
