Bits/Crown
Make sure:
• The bit/crow you are intending to use is the correct
one for this specific material.
• The bit/crown is in perfect working conditions (not
buckled/correctly sharpened).
Assembly
Open the chuck and insert the accessory's shank until it
reaches the botton of the chuck.
Use chuck key 8 to tighten it up through the three holes
of the chuck.
Warning!
An accessory shank that has only the tip fastened:
• will damage the chuck's jaws
• will destroy the accessory's shank thus making it
buckle due to the centrifugal force
• may cause an accident due to the wrong assembly.

Working instructions

Check the material to be drilled and select the correct
bit. Do not drill with a bit that is inadequate for the job,
because this will damage either your workpiece or the
bit itself.
Small workpieces
Use a vise or clamps to hold your workpiece.
Loose pieces could grip int the bit and cause acci-
dents.
Wall tiles and ceramics
Begin to drill without impact and activate the impact sys-
tem after drilling through the enamel surface. By doing
this, you prevent the bit to slide or the material to split.
