the lock button and rotate the change lever so that the pointer points to the symbol. Use a bull point, cold chisel, scaling chisel, etc.

CAUTION:

Do not rotate the change lever and/or shift lever when the tool is running under load. The tool will be damaged.

To avoid rapid wear on the mode change mechanism, be sure that the change lever and/or shift lever is always positively located in one of the three action mode positions.

The action mode cannot be changed directly from "hammering only" to "rotation only" or from "rotation only" to "hammering only". First set the change lever and the shift lever to "rotation with hammering" mode position shown in figure. Then set them to the position for "hammering only" or "rotation only".

The green power-ON indicator lamp lights up when the tool is switched ON. If the indicator lamp is lit but the tool does not start, the carbon brushes may be worn out, or the electric circuit or the motor may be defective. If the indicator lamp does not light up and the tool does not start, the ON/OFF switch or the mains cord may be defective.

The red service indicator lamp lights up when the carbon brushes are nearly worn out to indicate that the tool needs servicing. After approx. 8 hours of use, the motor will automatically be shut off.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

CAUTION:

Torque limiter

The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached. The motor will disengage from the output shaft. When this happens, the bit will stop turning.

CAUTION:

As soon as the torque limiter actuates, switch off the tool immediately. This will help prevent premature wear of the tool.

Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety when drilling in concrete, masonry, etc.

When the bit begins to break through concrete or if

the bit strikes reinforcing rods embedded in concrete, the tool may react dangerously. Maintain good balance and safe footing while holding the tool firmly with both hands to prevent dangerous reaction.

The side grip swings around to either side, allowing easy handling of the tool in any position. Loosen the side grip by turning it counterclockwise, swing it to the desired position and then tighten it by turning clockwise.
