Selecting action mode

Rotation with hammering (Fig. 5 & 6)

For drilling in concrete, masonry, etc., depress the lock

button and rotate the change lever so that the pointer

points to the

h symbol. Use a tungsten- carbide tipped

bit.

Hammering only (Fig. 5 & 7)

For chipping, scaling or demolition operations, depress

the lock button and rotate the change lever so that the

pointer points to the

symbol. Use a bull point, cold

chisel, scaling chisel, etc.

CAUTION:

• Do not rotate the change lever when the tool is running

under load. The tool will be damaged.

• To avoid rapid wear on the mode change mechanism,

be sure that the change lever is always positively

located in one of the two action mode positions.

Bit angle

(when chipping, scaling or demolishing)

Important:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before changing the bit angle.

The bit can be secured at 12 different angles. To change

the bit angle, depress the lock button and rotate the

change lever so that the pointer points to the

symbol.

Turn the bit to the desired angle. (Fig. 8)

Depress the lock button and rotate the change lever so

that the pointer points to the

symbol. (Fig. 9)

Then make sure that the bit is securely held in place by

turning it slightly.

Side handle (Fig. 10)

CAUTION:

Use the side handle only when chipping, scaling or

demolishing. Do not use it when drilling in concrete,

masonry, etc. The tool cannot be held properly with this

side handle when drilling.

The side handle can be swung 360° on the vertical and

secured at any desired position. It also secures at eight

different positions back and forth on the horizontal. Just

loosen the clamp nut to swing the side handle to a

desired position. Then tighten the clamp nut securely.

Side grip (Fig. 11)

CAUTION:

Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety when

drilling in concrete, masonry, etc.

The side grip swings around to either side, allowing easy

handling of the tool in any position. Loosen the side grip

by turning it counterclockwise, swing it to the desired

position and then tighten it by turning clockwise.

Switch action (Fig. 12)

CAUTION:

Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the

switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF”

position when released.

To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the trig-

ger to stop.

Speed change (Fig. 12)

The revolutions and blows per minute can be adjusted

just by turning the adjusting dial. The dial is marked 1

(lowest speed) to 6 (full speed). Refer to the table below

for the relationship between the number settings on the

adjusting dial and the revolutions/blows per minute.

Hammer drilling operation (Fig. 13)

Set the change lever to the

symbol. Position the bit

at the location for the hole, then pull the trigger. Do not

force the tool. Light pressure gives best results. Keep the

tool in position and prevent it from slipping away from the

hole.

Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes

clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an

idle, then remove from the hole. By repeating this several

times, the hole will be cleaned out.

CAUTION:

When the bit begins to break through concrete or if the

bit strikes reinforcing rods embedded in concrete, the tool

may react dangerously. Maintain good balance and safe

footing while holding the tool firmly with both hands to

prevent dangerous reaction.

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.

Chipping/Scaling/Demolition (Fig. 14)

Set the change lever to the g symbol. Hold the tool

firmly with both hands. Turn the tool on and apply slight

pressure on the tool so that the tool will not bounce

around, uncontrolled. Pressing very hard on the tool will

not increase the efficiency.

Depth gauge (Fig. 15)

The depth gauge is convenient for drilling holes of uni-

form depth. Loosen the clamp screw and adjust the

depth gauge to the desired depth. After adjusting, tighten

the clamp screw firmly.

NOTE:

The depth gauge cannot be used at the position where

the depth gauge strikes against the gear housing/motor

housing.
