Dust/Chip Extraction
The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of
wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health.
Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reac-
tions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in
people in the near vicinity.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as
carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-
terial wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
Dust extraction with GDE 16 Plus/GDE 68
(accessory)
A GDE 16 Plus (accessory) or GDE 68 (accessory) is re-
quired for dust extraction.
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being
worked on.
1 609 92A 81G | (30.06.2022)
When extracting dry dust or dust that is especially detri-
mental to health or carcinogenic, use a special dust ex-
tractor.
Dust collection cap (accessory)
To collect dust easily without using extraction, a dust collec-
tion cap is required.
Operation
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
Start-up

Position for drilling without impact in wood,
metal, ceramic and plastic and for screwdriv-
ing
Vario-Lock position for adjusting the chisel po-
sition
The impact/mode selector switch (10) will not
engage in this position.
Position for chiselling
Setting the rotational direction (see figure G)
The rotational direction switch (6) is used to change the ro-

sible while the on/off switch (8) is being pressed.
Only operate the rotational direction switch (6) when
u
the power tool is not in use.
Always set the rotational direction to clockwise rotation for
hammer drilling, drilling and chiselling.
