The green power-ON indicator lamp lights up when the tool is
switched ON. If the indicator lamp is lit but the tool does not
start, the carbon brushes may be worn out, or the electric cir-
cuit or the motor may be defective. If the indicator lamp does
not light up and the tool does not start, the ON/OFF switch or
the mains cord may be defective.
The red service indicator lamp lights up when the carbon
brushes are nearly worn out to indicate that the tool needs
servicing. After approx. 8 hours of use, the motor will auto-
matically be shut off.
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

• Use the side handle only when chipping, scaling or
demolishing. Do not use it when drilling in concrete,
masonry, etc. The tool cannot be held properly with this

secured at any desired position. It also secures at eight dif-

CAUTION:
• Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety
when drilling in concrete, masonry, etc.
The side grip swings around to either side, allowing easy
handling of the tool in any position. Loosen the side grip by
turning it counterclockwise, swing it to the desired position
and then tighten it by turning clockwise.
