Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows you to build up speed slowly,
thus preventing the drill bit from walking off the intended
hole position when starting. The soft start feature also
reduces the immediate torque reaction transmitted to the
gearing and the operator if the hammer is started with the
drill bit in an existing hole.

bit after about 1 cm of penetration. If so, remove and
continue hammerdrilling.
8. When hammerdrilling through a structure thicker than
the depth of the core bit, break away the round cylinder
of concrete or core inside the bit at regular intervals. To
avoid unwanted breaking away of concrete around the
hole, first drill a hole the diameter of the centering bit
completely through the structure. Then drill the cored
hole halfway from each side of the structure.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of
the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into a liquid.
