OPERATION

INSTALLING DEPTH GAUGE ROD

See Figure 11 - 12.

A depth gauge rod has been packed with your hammer drill to assist you in controlling the depth of drilled holes.

When drilling holes with the depth gauge rod installed, the desired hole depth has been reached when the end of the rod comes in contact with the surface of the material being drilled.

Follow these steps to install and adjust the depth gauge rod.

nLoosen the auxiliary handle.

nInsert the depth gauge rod through hole on the auxiliary handle.

nAdjust the depth gauge rod so that the drill bit extends beyond the end of the rod to the required drilling depth.

nTighten the auxiliary handle securely. This secures the depth gauge rod at the desired depth of cut. It also se- cures the auxiliary handle.
