Reversing the Rotational Direction

Operate the rotational direction switch 7 only at a standstill.

The rotational direction switch 7 is used to re- verse the rotational direction of the machine. However, this is not possible with the On/Off switch 6 actuated.

Right Rotation

Turn the rotational direc- tion switch through to the left stop (normal op- eration: drilling, screw- driving, etc.).

Left Rotation

Press the rotational di- rection switch through to the right stop (for loos- ening and unscrewing screws and nuts).

Impact Stop Switch

■Operate the impact stop switch 5 only when at a standstill.

Set the impact stop switch 5 to the desired posi- tion:

Drilling

Hammer drilling

Change the SDS-plus Tool Holder (GBH 24 VF)

The SDS-plus tool holder can easily be replaced by the keyless chuck supplied with the machine. The keyless chuck serves for rapid insertion of the tools without the SDS-plus (e. g. round shaft drill, screwdriver bits).

Do not hold the machine by the chuck!

Removal

■Danger of injury! Before removing the chuck, make sure to remove the tools or bits.

Tightly grip the chuck locking ring 15 and pull strongly in the direction of the arrow. Remove the chuck.

Mounting

Using the whole hand, tightly grip the chuck. Twist it onto the taper shaft of the chuck until it is clearly heard to latch. The chuck automatically locks.

Check the locking function by pulling at the chuck.

Electric Brake

When releasing the On/Off switch 6 the speed of the drill chuck is reduced to a stop, thus prevent- ing the run-on of the tool.

Any sparking occurring during this process in the area of the upper ventilation slots is normal and does not damage the machine.

For screwdriving applications, wait until the screw is flush with the material and then release the On/Off switch 6. The screw head does not pene- trate into the material then.

Keyless Chuck for Tools with a Cylindrical Shaft (GBH 24 VF)

Tools with a cylindrical shaft can be clamped us- ing the keyless chuck.

☞The keyless chuck is not suitable for hammer drilling.

Mounting the Keyless Chuck

Remove the SDS-plus tool holder. Mount the keyless chuck in the same way as the SDS-plus tool holder.
