6. To adjust the drilling speed, rotate
the speed control knob located in the
center of the Trigger. Turn clockwise to
increase speed and counterclockwise to
decrease speed. See Figure 2.
7. For continuous drilling, press Trigger,
then Trigger lock button on side of
handle, and release Trigger. To release
lock, depress Trigger. See Figure 2.
8. WARNING! Use both hands during use.
9. Use the Depth Gauge for controlled
depth drilling. The Depth Gauge has two
sets of markings on opposite ends of the
gauge. One is in half inch increments
and the other in one-centimeter
increments (increments are not precise
values, only general guides).
10. Insert bit and tighten Chuck. Loosen
Side Handle, place tip of bit against solid
surface and extend Depth Gauge until
it is against same surface. Determine
required hole-depth and retract Gauge
accordingly. Tighten Side Handle.
11. To switch between plain drilling and
hammering mode (drilling with an
oscillating hammer motion), slide the
Mode Selector (26) to left or right. The
“drill” symbol indicates plain drilling while
the “hammer” symbol indicates hammer
drilling. See Figure 3.

WARNING! Use this continuous drill
function ONLY when drilling soft
materials. Do not drill or hammer
drill hard materials such as steel or
concrete with Lock Button pressed
(ON). If drill bit catches on material, the
high torque will cause the tool to twist
around without stopping. This violent
action could cause injury to your hands
and arms. It could also damage the
Hammer Drill.
13. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool
and disconnect its power supply after
use. Clean, then store the tool indoors
out of children’s reach.
Metal Drilling Tips
1. Use high speed steel, carbide or
specialty bits for metal drilling.
2. Secure work piece to keep it from
moving during the drilling operation.
3. Use a center punch (not included) to
create a dimple for the bit to start.
4. Remove Key from Chuck.
5. Start by drilling slowly to keep bit from
wandering/skating away from your
starting point.
6. As hole is established, increase speed.
Do not use so much pressure that bit
heats up. This can damage bit and
create irregular hole. For hard metal, use
cutting oil to keep bit cool.
7. When drilling large holes in metal, start
by drilling a smaller pilot hole, then using
a larger bit for the nal size hole.
Wood Drilling Tips
1. Use high speed bits or bits specially
designed for wood drilling, such as brad
point, spade bits, forstner bits, etc.
2. Secure work piece to keep it from
moving during the drilling operation.
