The depth gauge is convenient for drilling holes of
uniform depth. Loosen the clamp screw and adjust the
depth gauge to the desired depth. After adjusting, tighten
the clamp screw firmly.
NOTE:
The depth gauge cannot be used at the position
•
where the depth gauge strikes against the gear
housing/motor housing.

Set the change lever to the
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.
