changing SDS Type or SDS plus Type Drill Bits
cAUTION! Wear heavy-duty work gloves when
inserting and removing drill bits. Drill bits become very
hot during use. Do not remove drill bits until the bit
has cooled. Do not strike stuck bits with a hammer.
1. Grease the drill bit shank before installing.
2. Pull back on the Chuck and insert the
drill bit (sold separately). Make sure it
slides all the way into the opening.
Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the power cord along a safe route to reach
the work area without creating a tripping hazard or
exposing the power cord to possible damage. The
power cord must reach the work area with enough
extra length to allow free movement while working.
