OPERATION

Hammer drilling operation

003198

Set the change lever and the shift lever to thesymbol. Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light pressure gives best results. Keep the tool in position and prevent it from slipping away from the hole.

Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an idle, then remove the bit partially from the hole. By repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling may be resumed.

CAUTION:

•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.

Blow-out bulb (optional accessory)

1. Blow-out bulb

After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the dust out of the hole.

Chipping/Scaling/Demolition

003204

Set the change lever and the shift lever to the symbol. Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Turn the tool on and apply slight pressure on the tool so that the tool will not bounce around, uncontrolled. Pressing very hard on the tool will not increase the efficiency.

Drilling in wood or metal

1. Drill chuck assembly

003221

Use the optional drill chuck assembly. When installing it, refer to "Installing or removing the bit" described on the previous page.

Set the change lever and the shift lever to the symbol. You can drill up to 13 mm diameter in metal and up to 30 mm diameter in wood.

CAUTION:

•Never use "rotation with hammering" when the drill chuck assembly is installed on the tool. The drill

chuck assembly may be damaged.

Drilling in wood

•When drilling in wood, best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The

guide screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.

Drilling in metal

•To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an indentation with a centerpunch and hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the indentation and start drilling. Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exception is brass which should be drilled dry.

CAUTION:

•Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only
