Safety and operating instructions

Rotation mechanism

Impact stroke
The drill steel is turned slightly with each blow by the
ratchet wheel rotation. The rotation is anti-clockwise
and is applied on the return stroke of the piston.
Flushing
Flushing is ducted through a hole in the piston. This
means that flushing air is provided as soon as the
compressed air is switched on.
