OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Two-Speed Gear Box
The hammer drill has a two-speed gear box designed
for drilling or driving at two different variable-speed
ranges. A gear selector (C) is located on the top of the
hammer drill to select either 1 (Low) speed range or 2
(High) speed range.
a. Setting 1 will deliver lower speeds and increased
power and torque. Use setting 1 for heavy-duty
work or driving screws.
b. Setting 2 will deliver higher speeds and reduced
power and torque. Use setting 2 for drilling wood
and wood composites and for using abrasive and
polishing accessories.
NOTICE: Never change gears while the tool is
running. Failure to obey this caution could result in
serious damage to the hammer drill.
4. Direction-of-Rotation Selector
(Forward/Center-Lock/Reverse)
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is
controlled by a selector located above the variable-
speed trigger switch (E). With the hammer drill held in
the normal operating position, pointing away from you:
a. Position the direction-of-rotation selector (F) to
the left of the tool for forward rotation.
b. Position the direction-of-rotation selector to the
right of the tool for reverse rotation.
c. Setting the selector in the center (lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting
when not in use.
NOTICE: To prevent gear damage, always allow the
hammer drill to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.
NOTICE: The hammer drill will not run unless the direction-of-rotation selector is engaged fully to
the left or right.
