(2)Tightening wood screws

Prior to tightening wood screws, make pilot holes suitable for them in the wooden board. Apply the bit to the screw head grooves and gently drive the

screws in the holes.

CAUTION

Exercise care in preparing a pilot hole suitable for the wood screw taking the hardness of the wood into consideration. Should the hole be excessively small or shallow, requiring much power to drive the screw into it, the thread of the wood screw may sometimes be damaged.

5. Using depth gauge (Fig. 14)

(1)Loosen the knob on the side handle, and insert the depth gauge into the mounting hole on the side handle.

(2)Adjust the depth gauge position according to the

depth of the hole and tighten the knob bolt securely.

6.How to use the drill bit (taper shank) and the taper shank adapter

(1)Mount the taper shank adapter to the rotary hammer. (Fig. 15)

(2)Mount the drill bit (taper shank) to the taper shank adapter. (Fig. 15)

(3)Turn the switch ON, and drill a hole to prescribed depth.

(4)To remove the drill bit (taper shank), insert the cotter into the slot of the taper shank adapter and strike the head of the cotter with a hammer

supporting on the rest. (Fig. 16)

7.Switching between the “SAVE“ and the “POWER“ modes

The hammering force of the hammer can be increased or decreased to conform with intended usage, by operating the shift knob as per Fig. 17.

Adjust the force to match the usage intended.

(1)“SAVE“ mode ... decreased hammering force This can prevent thin drill bits which are less than

4.3mm in diameter, from being bent or broken.

(2)“POWER“ mode ... increased hammering force ￿ This can be used to speedily and efficiently drill

holes when the drill bits which are being used are greater than 4 mm in diameter.

￿ This can be used to drill holes into wood or metal.

CAUTION

Do not drill holes in wood with the “SAVE“ mode. There is a likelihood that the motor will burn out

because it can easily lock up due to the low power.

8.About Remaining Battery Indicator

When pressing the remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights and the battery remaining power can be checked. (Fig. 18) When releasing your finger from the remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp goes off. The Table 5 shows the state of remaining battery indicator lamp and the battery remaining power.

Table 5

State of lamp Battery Remaining Power

The battery remaining power is enough.

The battery remaining power is a half.

The battery remaining power is nearly empty.

Re-charge the battery soonest possible.

As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat differently depending on ambient temperature and battery characteristics, read it as a reference.

NOTE:

￿Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or break it.It may lead to a trouble.

￿To save the battery power consumption, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights while

pressing the remaining battery indicator switch.

9.How to use the LED light

Every time you press the light switch on the switch panel, the LED light lights or goes off. (Fig. 19)

To prevent the battery power consumption, turn

off the LED light frequently.

CAUTION

￿Do not expose directly your eye to the light by

looking into the light.

If your eye is continuously exposed to the light, your eye will be hurt.

NOTE:

￿To prevent the battery power consumption caused by forgetting to turn off the LED light, the light goes off automatically in about 15 minutes.

LUBRICATION

Low viscosity grease is applied to this rotary hammer so that it can be used for a long period without replacing the grease. Please contact the nearest service center for grease replacement when any grease is leaking form loosened screw.

Further use of the rotary hammer despite the grease shortage causes damage to reduce the service life.

CAUTION

A specific grease (FG-6A) is used with this machine, therefore, the normal performance of the machine may be badly affected by use of different grease. Please be sure to let one of our service centers to undertake replacement of the grease.
