OPERATION
Hammer drilling operation
010167
Set the action mode changing knob to the symbol.
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:
There is tremendous and sudden twisting force
exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole
break-through, when the hole becomes clogged
with chips and particles, or when striking reinforcing
rods embedded in the concrete. Always use the
side grip (auxiliary handle) and firmly hold the tool
by both side grip and switch handle during
operations. Failure to do so may result in the loss of
control of the tool and potentially severe injury.
Blow-out bulb
1
001302
Use the blow-out bulb to clean out the hole.
Chipping/Scaling/Demolition
010168
Set the action mode changing knob 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
010157
Use the optional drill chuck assembly. When installing it,
refer to "Installing or removing drill bit" described on the
previous page.
Set the action mode changing knob to the
symbol.
You can drill up to 13 mm diameter in metal and up to 32
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.
Also, the drill chuck will come off when reversing
the tool.
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up
the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only
serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the
tool performance and shorten the service life of the
tool.
There is a tremendous twisting force exerted on the
tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough. Hold the
tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to
break through the workpiece.
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back
out. However, the tool may back out abruptly if you
do not hold it firmly.
