A feed channel for feeding compressed air to the DTH-drill shoulders in the frame and in the percussion piston for controlling compressed air to provide an impact movement. In the rear end of the frame the DTH drill has a combustion chamber and an acceleration piston that is arranged to push the percussion piston during the impact movement for a portion of the percussion piston travel, and means for feeding combustion air and fuel into the combustion chamber, whereby the percussion piston is arranged to push the acceleration piston after the impact into the combustion chamber and to compress the air in the combustion chamber prior to feeding the fuel into the combustion chamber.
