This product is intended for the purposes listed below:
You may use this product with a chuck adaptor (not included) for the purposes listed below:
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed with increased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased trigger pressure.
NOTE: A whistling or ringing noise coming from the switch during use is a normal part of the switch function.
NOTE: Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause the tool to become overheated. If this occurs, cool the tool by running it without a load and at full speed.
The LED emits light from the front of the tool when the switch trigger is depressed.
If the tool is not in use, the time-out feature will cause the light to start fading and then shut off.
The LED light illuminates only when there is a charged battery pack in the tool.
(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)
Set the direction of rotation selector in the OFF (center lock) position to lock the switch trigger and help prevent accidental starting when not in use.
Position the direction of rotation selector to the left of the switch trigger for forward operation. Position the selector to the right of the switch trigger to reverse the direction.
NOTE: The tool will not run unless the direction of rotation selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
NOTICE:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.
For complete charging instructions, see the operator's manuals for your battery pack and charger.
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Lock the switch when not in use or carrying at your side, when installing or removing the battery pack, and when installing or removing bits.
The depth stop rod helps control the depth of drilled holes.
To adjust the depth stop rod:
NOTE: When properly installed, the teeth on the depth stop rod should be aligned with the teeth indicator on the depth stop rod holder.
This tool is equipped with an SDS-Plus connection system. Only use bits designed for use with the SDS-Plus connection system.
To install bits:
To remove bits:
NOTE: When hammer drilling, use only bits with hard metal and SDS Plus shaft.
For drilling in metal, wood, and plastic with non-SDS Plus drill bits, a chuck adaptor may be used.
NOTE: Use with Rotational Drilling Mode only. Use of Rotary Hammer mode or Chisel Only mode will damage the tool's mechanism when used for fastening or drilling with non-SDS-Plus bits.
A new hammer drill may require up to five hours of operation for break-in. When stored for long periods or in low temperatures, a warm-up period of a few seconds to a couple of minutes may be required in hammer mode.
The hammer drill features an internal clutch that is preset to allow a sufficient amount of force for most drilling operations. It may slip when the bit binds in the hole or the tool is overloaded. Be aware that an instant before the clutch slips, a torque reaction can occur allowing the hammer drill body to twist in the opposite direction of the turning bit. The clutch will automatically reset when the binding force of the bit is removed.
NOTE: It is normal during the drilling process for the bit to momentarily stop rotating when the clutch is slipping. Continued drilling will not damage the tool.
The mode selector gives the operator four options.
Rotary Hammer Mode Hammering action plus drill bit rotation. Use for hammer drilling. | |
Rotational Drilling Mode Drill bit rotation only; no hammering action. Use for drilling and other heavy duty applications. | |
Chisel Adjust Mode Position allows the user to rotate the bit to the optimum position for chiseling applications. | |
Chisel Only Mode Hammering action only for chipping concrete, tile, and masonry. |
NOTE: If the product has not been operated recently, the mode selector may be difficult to turn. If you cannot change modes, turn the tool on and allow it to run for a few seconds. This should free the gears and allow you to change modes normally.
NOTE: This tool has an electric brake. When the switch trigger is released, the chuck stops turning. When the brake is functioning properly, sparks will be visible through the vent slots on the housing. This is normal and is the action of the brake.
NOTICE:
During extended periods of use, it is possible that lubrication may leak from the gearbox. This is a normal occurrence and does not indicate a problem with the tool. Avoid placing the tool on an unprotected surface to avoid possible property damage.
For maximum performance, use carbide-tipped masonry impact bits or designated hammer drill bits when drilling holes in brick, tile, concrete, etc.
WOOD, METAL, AND STEEL DRILLING
For maximum performance, use high speed steel bits for wood or metal drilling. Select Rotational Drilling Mode. Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit from slipping off the starting point.
NOTICE:
When using the tool, do not apply too much pressure. Too much pressure will place unnecessary load on the motor.
TOOL STATUS | LED LIGHT SCENARIO | ACTION REQUIRED |
Normal | Solid Light (No Flashes) | No Action Needed |
Low Battery | 3 Flashes | Replace Battery |
Excessive Force | 6 Flashes | Wait 5 Seconds |
Over Temperature | 9 Flashes | Let Tool Cool Off |
*More than 9 flashes will result in the need to remove the battery and reinsert a few minutes later.
