A pneumatic post drill is composed of a mainframe, a control console and a muffler through a flexible rubber hose. The pneumatic post drill which is a portable drill has the advantages of safety, explosion protection, high torque, high rotating speed, light weight, small size, high efficiency, simple structure, convenience in maintenance and the like. Therefore, the pneumatic post drill is high in working efficiency, good in support quality, low in labor intensity of workers, less in drilling footage cost and suitable for market promotion; the parts of the drill are connected through the flexible rubber hose, flexible arrangement on different downhole sites is facilitated, and the mainframe can be further disassembled when transportation conditions are poor. The drill is mainly applied to coal mines with coal and gas outburst and explosion risk, and can also be used for geologic structure coal seam exploration, water exploration, gas exploration, coal seam water injection and pressure hole relief as well as drilling of roadway side anchor bolt holes, stirring of anchor bolts and mounting of nuts. The drill can be further used for stirring of rock roadway resin anchor bolts and mounting of bolts, and is one of necessary devices in the coal mining industry.
