Important!
The vibration value changes according to the area of
application of the electric tool and may exceed the
specified value in exceptional circumstances.
5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
5.1. Fitting the additional handle (Fig. 2-3/Item 8)
The additional handle (8) enables you to achieve
better stability whilst using the hammer drill. Do not
use the tool without the additional handle.
The additional handle (8) is secured to the hammer
drill by a clamp. During the handle clockwise tightens
this clamp. Turning it anti-clockwise will release the
clamp.
The supplied additional handle (8) must first be
fitted. To do this, the clamp must be opened by
turning the handle until it is wide enough for the
additional handle to be slid over the chuck (1)
and on to the hammer drill.
After you have positioned the additional handle
(8), turn it to the most comfortable working
position for you.
Now turn the handle in the opposite direction
again until the additional handle is secure.
The additional handle (8) is suitable for both left-
handed and right-handed users.
5.2 Fitting and adjusting the depth stop
(Fig. 4/Item 2)
The depth stop (2) is held in place by the additional
handle (8) by clamping. The clamp can be released
and tightened by turning the handle.
Release the clamp and fit the depth stop (2) in
the recess provided for it in the additional handle.
Set the depth stop (2) to the same level as the
drill bit.
Pull the depth stop back by the required drilling
depth.
Turn the handle on the additional handle (8) until
it is secure.
Now drill the hole until the depth stop (2) touches
the workpiece.
5.3 Fitting the drill bit (Fig. 5)
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
Release the depth stop (2) as described in 5.2
and push it towards the drill handle. This provides
free access to the chuck (1).
Undo the chuck by turning it anti-clockwise with
the supplied chuck key (9).
To ensure that it is perfectly positioned the drill bit
or tool should be inserted as far as possible into
the chuck. After inserting the drill bit or tool,
tighten the chuck (1) by turning the chuck key (9)
clockwise until the drill bit or tool is secure. Check
that the drill bit is secure in the chuck (1).
Check at regular intervals that the drill bit or tool is
secure (pull the mains plug).
6. Operation
6.1 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 6/Item 5)
First fit a suitable drill bit into the tool (see 5.3).
Connect the mains plug to a suitable socket.
Position the drill in the position you wish to drill.
To switch on:
Press the ON/OFF switch (5)
Continuous operation:
Secure the ON/OFF switch (5) with the locking
button (4).
To switch off:
Press the ON/OFF switch (5) briefly.
6.2 Adjusting the speed (Fig. 6/Item 5)
You can infinitely vary the speed whilst using the
tool.
Select the speed by applying a greater or lesser
pressure to the ON/OFF switch (5).
Select the correct speed: The most suitable
speed depends on the workpiece, the type of use
and the drill bit used.
Low pressure on the ON/OFF switch (5): Lower
speed (suitable for: small screws and soft
materials)
Greater pressure on the ON/OFF switch (5):
Higher speed (suitable for large/long screws and
hard materials)
Tip: Start drilling holes at low speed. Then increase
the speed in stages.
Benefits:
The drill bit is easier to control when starting the
hole and will not slide away.
