ENG ENGLISH
Impact drilling:
-Extremely high torques are produced when the drill seizes. Therefore for safety reasons, always use the additional handle (6) supplied.
-Do not hold the machine by the bow handle (1) if there is a danger of the machine seizing. There is a risk of injury to the user.
Option 1
Pull the bow handle (1) backwards parallel to the housing and tighten clamping knob. Screw the additional handle (6) into one of the front threads
(2)(left and right of the gear housing) and tighten by hand.
Option 2
Upright working position for reduced stress on the back when working on floors:
The additional handle (6) can also be attached to the motor housing. Screw the additional handle into the rear thread (7) and tighten by hand.

8.1Attaching and removing tools
Before fitting tools, clean shank and apply special grease enclosed with tool (acces-
sories order no. 6.31800)! Use only
Attaching tools:
Turn tool and insert until it engages. The tool is automatically locked.
Pull on the tool to check that it is seated correctly. (It must be possible to move the
tool a few centimetres in an axial direction.)
Removing the tool:
Pull tool lock (4) backwards in direction indicated by arrow (a) and remove tool (b).
8.2Setting the operating mode
Turn the switch button (5) to select the desired operating mode.

Chiselling
When a chisel is fitted, only operate the machine in the chiselling operating
mode 
.
8.3Adjusting the chisel position
The chisel can be secured in 16 different positions.
- Insert the chisel.
-Turn the switch button (5) to position 
.
-Turn the chisel to the required position.
-Turn the switch button (5) to position 
.
-Turn the chisel until it engages.
When a chisel is fitted, only operate the machine in the chiselling operating
mode 
.
8.4Setting the impact force and speed
Turn the adjusting wheel to the desired letter.
The correct setting depends on the task in hand. Example: set the switch to "A" or "B" (low impact force) when chiselling soft, brittle material or trying to minimise
Set the wheel to the letter "G" (high performance) when breaking off or drilling harder materials.
8.5Switching On and Off
Instantaneous activation:
To start the machine, press the trigger switch (9).
Release the trigger (9) to switch off.
Continuous operation:
For continuous operation the trigger switch can be locked using the lock button (10).
Press and release the trigger (9) again to switch off.
In continuous operation, the machine continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with both hands using the handles provided, stand in a safe position and concentrate.
8.6Metabo VibraTech (MVT)
For reduced vibrations and less stress on the hands.
Always apply a moderate amount of pressure to the handle when pushing down the machine and do not force. Vibrations are reduced most effec- tively at the central position (8).
9 Cleaning, Maintenance
Motor cleaning: blow out the machine thoroughly at regular intervals through the air slots with compressed air.
10 Tips and Tricks
Only moderate pressure is required when working with the machine. Applying excessive pressure does not increase your working performance and may decrease the service life of your machine.
