Always hold the tool only by the handle when performing
an operation. Do not touch the metal part.
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
There is 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 toll and potentially serve injury.
When drilling in concrete, granite, tile, etc., slide the
action mode change lever to the position of
to use "rotation with hammering" action. Be sure to use a
tungsten-carbide tipped bit. 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 several times,
the hole will be cleaned out.
