CAUTION:
• Always insert the battery cartridge all the way until it
locks in place. If you can see the red part on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely. Insert it
fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it may
accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or
someone around you.
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
• There is a tremendous and sudden twisting force
exerted on the tool/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 operations. Failure to do so may result in
the loss of control of the tool and potentially severe
injury.
First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the arrow on
the tool body points to the
be aligned in any torque levels for this operation.
Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped bit.
Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then pull
the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light pressure gives
best results. Keep the tool in position and prevent it from slip-
ping away from the hole.
Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged
with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an idle, then
remove the bit partially from the hole. By repeating this sev-
eral times, the hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling
may be resumed.
