(3) Pushing the rotary hammer forcibly is not necessary
at all. Pushing slightly so that drill dust comes out
gradually is just sufficient.
CAUTION:
When the drill bit touches construction iron bar,
the bit will stop immediately and the rotary
hammer will react to revolve. Therefore please grip
the side handle and handle tightly as shown in
Fig. 11.
3. Rotation only
Turn the change lever fully in the direction of the
" " mark to set "rotation only". (Fig. 10)
To drill a wood or metal material using the optional
drill chuck and chuck adapter, proceed as follows.
Installing drill chuck and chuck adapter : (Fig. 12)
(1) Attach the drill chuck to the chuck adaptor.
(2) The part of the SDS-plus shank is the same as the
drill bit. Therefore, refer to the item of "Mounting
the drill bit" for attaching it.

CAUTION:
●
Application of force more than necessary will not
only expedite work at all, but will deteriorate the
tip edge of the drill bit and reduce the service life
of the rotary hammer in addition.
●
Drill bit may snap off while withdrawing the rotary
hammer from the drilled hole. For withdrawing,
it is important to use a pushing motion.
●
Do not attempt to use the rotary hammer in the
rotation and striking mode with the drill chuck and
chuck adapter attached. This would seriously
shorten the service life of every component of the
machine.
4. When driving wood screws (Fig. 13)
(1) Selecting a suitable driver bit
Employ plus-head screws, if possible, since the
driver bit easily slips off the heads of slotted-head
screws.
(2) Tightening wood screws
Prior to tightening wood screws, make pilot holes
suitable for them in the wooden board. Apply the
bit to the screw head grooves and gently drive the
screws in the holes.

CAUTION:
Exercise care in preparing a pilot hole suitable for
the wood screw taking the hardness of the wood
into consideration. Should the hole be excessively
small or shallow, requiring much power to drive
the screw into it, the thread of the wood screw
may sometimes be damaged.
