The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool.
To install the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool
housing on either side and then secure it with a screw.
To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.

OPERATION

CAUTION:
Always use the side grip (auxiliary
handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side grip
and switch handle during operations.
CAUTION:
Always make sure that the work-
piece is secured before operation.
NOTE: If the battery cartridge is in low temperature,
the tool's capability may not be fully obtained. In this
case, warm up the battery cartridge by using the
tool with no load for a while to fully obtain the tool's
capability.
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
twisting force exerted on the tool/drill 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 opera-
tions. Failure to do so may result in the loss of control
of the tool and potentially severe injury.

Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes
clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at
an idle, then remove the drill bit partially from the hole.
By repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned
out and normal drilling may be resumed.
NOTE: Eccentricity in the drill bit rotation may occur
while operating the tool with no load. The tool auto-
matically centers itself during operation. This does not
affect the drilling precision.
Drilling in wood or metal
CAUTION:
when the drill bit begins to break through the
workpiece. There is a tremendous force exerted on
the tool/drill bit at the time of hole break through.
CAUTION:
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.
CAUTION:
