FEATURES

Before using the hammer drill, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements. However, do not let familiarity with the tool make you careless.

Your new hammer drill is equipped with the following features. See Figure 1.

SWITCH

Your hammer drill has a conveniently located trigger switch.

TWO-SPEED GEAR TRAIN

The hammer drill has a two-speed gear train designed for drilling or driving at LO (1) or HI (2) speeds. A slide switch is located on top of the drill to select either LO (1) or HI (2) speed. When using the drill in the LO (1) speed range, the speed decreases and the tool has more power and torque. When using the drill in the HI (2) speed range, the speed increases and the tool has less power and torque. Use LO

(1)speed for high power and torque applications and HI (2) speed for fast drilling or driving applications.
