009669
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction
of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A
side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for
counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position,
the switch trigger cannot be pulled.
CAUTION:
Always check the direction of rotation before
•
operation.
Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes
•
to a complete stop. Changing the direction of
rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.
When not operating the tool, always set the
•
reversing switch lever to the neutral position.

For chipping, scaling or demolition operations, depress
the lock button and rotate the action mode changing
knob to the symbol. Use a bull point, cold chisel,
scaling chisel, etc.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate the action mode changing knob when
•
the tool is running. The tool will be damaged.
To avoid rapid wear on the mode change
•
mechanism, be sure that the action mode
changing knob is always positively located in one
of the three action mode positions.
Torque limiter
The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque
level is reached. The motor will disengage from the
output shaft. When this happens, the bit will stop turning.
CAUTION:
As soon as the torque limiter actuates, switch off
•
the tool immediately. This will help prevent
premature wear of the tool.
Hole saws cannot be used with this tool. They tend
•
to pinch or catch easily in the hole. This will cause
the torque limiter to actuate too frequently.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out
any work on the tool.
