We're going to have a look at the top of the range Metabo impact drill namely the
SBEV 1300-2 what that designation means is B is the German "schlagbo
afrikaan slachbur" in english impact drill. E is your electronic for your variable speed
your. V is your VTC electronic which I'll get into now. Now the 1300 is the 1300 watts and a stroke
2 is a two-speed mechanical gearbox now scope of delivery are one of two options either the
cardboard box version or the handy metabox now let's have a look at the machine in more detail.
This is what you get supplied with your machine you get your instruction manual with your parts
list your drilling depth gauge you get your chuck key and your side handle now this is
your anti-vibration side handle you will notice it has an extension in the middle
because it is such a powerful machine you need more leverage it is the three compound handle
with metal hard plastic and rubber for the anti-vibration now as mentioned before you
get this 1300 machine supplied in two variations one in a cardboard box and one in a meta box the
designation 1300-2 tells you cardboard box with a 13mm gear chuck when it has the designation 13-2 s
it comes with a keyless metal keyless chuck and a metabox this machine is roughly 2.7 kilograms
it has a four meter cable with a ball joint at the bottom where it goes into the machine this is to
eliminate kinks and shorts and breakages in your cable it's ergonomically designed with a rubber
coating at the back to minimize vibrations in your hand also your cutout so you can apply pressure on
the machine in line with your drill bit the gearbox in front is cast aluminium which is
exceptionally good for dissipating heat out of the gearbox on the switch control you will see this
switch over here that is the forward and reverse of the machine and how mutable does it with these
machines is changing the position and polarities of the brushes on the armature which is the better
option because you have no power loss as you would have with a traditional ford reverse via
electronic and that's exceptionally good trying to remove stubborn screws and applications like that
next you have your variable speed trigger switch with your locking mechanism and going to the top
of the machine you have your wheel for selecting your variable speed and on your last setting you
will see the impulse this machine has an impulse function which means it pulses and
always gives you maximum torque a couple of good applications is again removing a stubborn screw
or else trying to start off drilling a hole on a very smooth surface next to it you'll see
your electronic display and that is an indicator warning you of a couple of things thermal overload
this machine cuts out and gives you a warning when the temperature inside the machine gets too hot
you have a restart protection which means if your switch is locked in you have a break-in power and
the power comes back on the machine will not start the red light will flash you'll have to switch the
machine off and start it again and the last one is a brushware indicator warning you that the brushes
on the armature are getting low next to that you have your switch going from drilling
to impact for your concrete masonry you have roughly 59 000 blows per minute
and in front of the gearbox you have your mechanical gearbox selected two speed gearbox
in speed one you have a speed from zero to one thousand one hundred rpms in the second gear
you have from zero to 3 100 rpms as mentioned before this stroke 2 execution comes with a
13mm gear truck from 1.5 to 13 mil the stroke 2 s comes with a 13mm 1.5 to 13 mil keyless chuck
right this machine produces a massive 44 newton meters torque which is more than
10 percent additional torque to the next powerful Metabo impulse impact machine
this is also the highest torque producing machine we have in the Metabo impact range at a mass of 44
newton meters the machine is also rated to drill at a maximum capacity of 24 millimeters in masonry
22 millimeters in concrete 16 millimeters in steel and 40 millimeters in soft wood
