ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS


WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start‑up can cause injury.

Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows the impact rate to build up more
slowly, thus preventing the chisel or point from "bouncing"
around on the masonry when starting up.
Active Vibration Control
The active vibration control neutralizes rebound vibration from
the hammer mechanism. Lowering hand and arm vibration,
it allows more comfortable use for longer periods of time and
extends the life of the unit.
