Operation - Hilti SFC 14-A Mode D'emploi

7. Operation

CAUTION
The tool may get hot during use. Wear protective
gloves.
CAUTION
When drilling and screwdriving, the grip of the tool
may be deflected laterally (the tool tends to pivot
about its own axis).
CAUTION
To avoid injuries caused by the insert tool, wear
protective gloves when changing insert tools.
7.1 Setting forward or reverse rotation 4
NOTE
The forward / reverse switch is used to select the
direction of rotation of the drive spindle. An interlock
prevents switching while the motor is running. The
control switch is locked when the forward / reverse
switch is in the middle position. Push the forward /
reverse switch to the right (power tool held in working
direction) to select forward rotation. Push the forward
/ reverse switch to the left (power tool held in working
direction) to select reverse rotation.
7.2 Speed selection using the 2-speed gear
switch 5
NOTE
The mechanical 2-speed gear switch can be used to
select the speed range required. Speed with fully-
charged battery: 1st gear: 0 500 /min, 2nd gear:
0 1700 /min
7.3 Switching on / off
Speed of rotation can be controlled smoothly up
to maximum speed by pressing the control switch
slowly.
