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 dust extraction system (Fig. 5-9)
The dust extraction system (9) is fitted on the
additional handle (8). It can also be used in
combination with the depth stop (2). This prevents
the work area becoming very dirty.
Release the cover (A) and the sealing cap (B) by
turning the additional handle (8). Several drill bits
can be stored in the sealing cap (B) to save
space (Fig. 5-6).
Screw the dust extractor adapter (10) on to the
additional handle (8) from underneath.
Now place the dust extraction system (9) on to
the additional handle (8) as shown in Fig. 7 – 8
and secure it by turning it.
Important. There are detents on the cover (A)
and the dust extraction system (9) which
must be engaged in the corresponding
recesses on the additional handle (8) before
the cover (A) or dust extraction system (9)
can be turned and locked.
Remove the dust extraction system (9) by
following the above in reverse.
Fit the additional handle (8) on the machine as
described in 5.1. Please note that the additional
handle (8) must be fitted to the left-hand side of
the machine if the dust extraction system (9) is
also fitted (Fig. 9).
The dust extraction system (9) can be fitted to
the machine even if the additional handle (8) is
fitted.
If the dust extraction system (9) is not required,
the cover (A) and the sealing cap (B) must be
fitted to the additional handle (8).
5.4 Fitting the drill bit (Fig. 10)
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
Release the depth stop as described in 5.2 and
push it towards the additional handle. In addition
the dust extraction system (9) should be
removed (see 5.3). This provides free access to
the chuck (1).
This hammer drill is fitted with a keyless chuck
(1).
Open the chuck (1). The drill bit opening must be
large enough to fit the drill bit into.
Select a suitable drill bit. Push the drill bit as far
as possible into the chuck opening.
Close the chuck (1). 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).

6.2 Adjusting the speed (Fig. 11/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.
You avoid drilling messy holes (for example in
tiles).
6.3 Preselecting the speed (Fig. 11/Item 6)
The speed setting ring (6) enables you to define
the maximum speed. The ON/OFF switch (5) can
only be pressed to the defined maximum speed
setting.
Set the speed using the setting ring (6) on the
ON/OFF switch (5).
Do not attempt to make this setting whilst the drill
is in use.

6.6 Drilling with the dust extraction system (9)
Use the dust extraction system only for drilling into
concrete, bricks and masonry since wood or plastic
chips may block the extraction system. Do not drill
into metallic materials since hot metal chips can
damage the dust extraction system.
Fit the dust extraction system (9); see point 5.3.
Connect the dust extractor adapter (10) to the
suction hose of a suitable vacuum cleaner. The
vacuum cleaner must be suitable for handling the
substance that will be extracted. Harmful dust
must not be extracted using the dust extraction
system (9). Use on materials containing
asbestos is prohibited!
Set the required drilling depth (see point 5.2).
Mark the drilling position.
Tip: To prevent the wall being soiled, you can
mask the area around the transparent extraction
opening with masking tape. Before you use the
masking tape, test whether the tape can be
removed easily from the wall again in a place
that it not easily visible.
Switch on the vacuum cleaner and place the
transparent cover on the front of the dust
extraction system (9) over the drilling point so
that the drill bit is in front of the mark. Ensure that
the transparent cover is in contact with the
workpiece or wall.

Press the drill bit and machine gently against the
mark whilst the ON/OFF switch (5) is still set to
off.
Then drill the hole. See the instructions in point
6.7 for more details.
The dust extraction system (9) must be cleaned
after at least every 15 holes. For this purpose
remove the dust extraction system (9) and the
additional handle (8) as described in points 5.3
and 5.1. Clean the dust extraction system (9)
and the interior of the additional handle (8) by
carefully tapping them or blowing them through
with low pressure compressed air.
If the extraction performance is poor, check the
dust extraction system (9) for possible blockages
or dirt.
The transparent cover is enclosed in a protective
ring to prevent it from suffering damage. This
protective ring should be replaced as soon as it
is damaged or worn.
