Maintenance - SPARKY BR 9,6E Notice Originale

▪ For maximum performance use carbide-tipped ma-
sonry impact bits when drilling holes in brick, tile, con-
crete etc.
▪ Turn the speed selector (3) to position "2", then rotate
the torque collar to the drill position.
▪ Apply light pressure and medium speed for best re-
sults in brick.
▪ Apply additional pressure and high speed for hard ma-
terials such as concrete.
▪ When drilling holes in tile, practice on a scrap piece to
determine the best speed and pressure.
Drilling wood
▪ For maximum performance, use high speed steel bits
for wood drilling.
▪ Ensure that the torque adjustment collar (2) is at posi-
tion "drill bit".
▪ Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit
from slipping off the starting point. Increase the speed
as the drill bites into the material.
▪ When drilling through holes, place a block of wood
behind the work piece to prevent ragged or splintered
edges on the back side of the hole.
All drilling operations
▪ Use only sharp drill bits.
▪ Mark off the centre of the hole using a centre punch or
nail.
SCREWING / UNSCREWING
Select the appropriate torque by placing one of the num-
bers, marked on the torque adjustment collar (2), against
the arrow on the tool body.
Insert the necessary bit.
WARNING: Over-tightening can result in the
screw breaking or damage to the end of the driver bit.
WARNING: If the machine is held at an angle
to the screw being tightened, the head of the screw
may be damaged, or the specified torque may not be
transmitted to the screw. Always keep the machine
and the screw being tightened in a straight line.
CHUCK REPLACEMENT
Chuck removal
WARNING: Always wear eye protection.
Turn the torque adjustment collar (2) to the "drill bit" posi-
tion and select low gear, on the speed selector switch (3).
Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key
(not supplied) of 5 mm or greater size. Using a wooden
mallet or similar object, strike the longer end in the clock-
wise direction. This will loosen the left-threaded screw
inside the chuck.
Original instructions
1. Open chuck jaws fully.
2. Insert a 5 mm hex key into front of chuck between
jaws to engage screw head. Remove screw by turning
clockwise.
3. Place the hex key in chuck and tighten. Using a wood-
en mallet or similar object, strike key sharply in the
anti-clockwise direction. This will loosen the chuck so
that it can be unscrewed by hand.
Chuck installation
1. Screw the chuck on by hand as far as it will go and
insert screw (left-threaded).
2. Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of hex key
(not supplied) strike the longer end in the clockwise
direction with a wooden mallet.
3. Remove the hex key and open the jaws fully. Tighten
the screw in the centre of the chuck with the hex key in
an anti-clockwise direction.
ACCESSORIES
Charger, two Ni-Cd battery packs and two double-ended
screwdriver bits.

Maintenance

WARNING: Always switch the tool off and re-

If the body of the tool needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft
damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used.
WARNING: Never use alcohol, petrol or other
cleaning agent. Never use caustic agents to clean
plastic parts.
WARNING: Water must never come into con-
tact with the tool.
