ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING:

The hammer drill should never be connected to a power supply when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, performing maintenance, or when the tool is not in use. Disconnecting the tool will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious injury.

ADJUSTING THE AUXILIARY HANDLE ASSEMBLY

See Figure 2.

Follow these steps to adjust the auxiliary handle assembly.

Loosen the auxiliary handle assembly by turning the knob counterclockwise.

Rotate the auxiliary handle assembly to the desired location.

Tighten the auxiliary handle assembly securely by turning the knob clockwise.

ADJUSTING THE DEPTH GAUGE ROD

See Figure 3.

Follow these steps to adjust the depth gauge rod.

Lock the trigger switch by placing the rotation selector in the center position.

Loosen the auxiliary handle assembly by turning the knob counterclockwise.

Adjust the depth gauge rod so that the drill bit extends beyond the end of the rod to the required drilling depth.

Tighten the auxiliary handle assembly by turning the knob clockwise.

ADJUSTING THE SPEED

See Figure 4.

The hammer drill has a two-speed gear train that provides a high speed of approximately 1,400/min and a low speed of approximately 400/min (stated speeds are with the trigger switch in the “Full-on” position).

Follow these steps to adjust the speed.

For high speed: Slide the two-speed gear train switch to “2.”

For low speed: Slide the two-speed gear train switch to “1.”

Note: If you have difficulty changing from one gear range to the other, turn the chuck by hand until the gears engage.

CAUTION:

Never change gears while the tool is running. Failure to obey this caution could result in serious damage to the drill.
