GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
For your personal safety, READ and UNDERSTAND before using. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING:
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed
below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work area safety
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical safety
4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
8. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
9. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
10. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
11. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
12. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key

ROTARY HAMMER
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
14. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
15. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
Power tool use and care
16. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
17. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
18. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
19. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20. Maintain power tools, check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
21. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
22. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
23. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
24. Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.
25. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict
adherence to rotary hammer safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can
suffer serious personal injury.
1. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
2. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
3. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

ROTARY HAMMER
4. Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield. Ordinary eye or sun
glasses are NOT safety glasses. It is also highly recommended that you wear a dust mask
and thickly padded gloves.
5. Be sure the bit is secured in place before operation.
6. Under normal operation, the tool is designed to produce vibration. The screws can come
loose easily, causing a breakdown or accident. Check tightness of screws carefully before
operation.
7. In cold weather or when the tool has not been used for a long time, let the tool warm up
for a while by operating it under no load. This will loosen up the lubrication. Without
proper warm-up, hammering operation is difficult.
8. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
9. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
10. Keep hands away from moving parts.
11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
12. Do not point the tool at any one in the area when operating. The bit could fly out and
injure someone seriously.
13. Do not touch the bit or parts close to the bit immediately after operation; they may be
extremely hot and could burn your skin.
14. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust
inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.

Intended Use
The tool is intended for hammer drilling in concrete, brick and stone as well as for light chiseling
work. It is also suitable for drilling without impact in wood, metal, ceramic and plastic.
WARNING:
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious
personal injury.
Switching On and Off
WARNING:
•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, press the On/Off switch 6and keep it depressed.
To switch off the tool, release the On/Off switch 6.
For low temperatures, the tool reaches the full hammer/impact
capacity only after a certain time.
This start-up time can be shortened by striking the drill/chisel
against the floor one time.
Overload Clutch
If the tool insert becomes caught or jammed, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted. Because
of the forces that occur, always hold the power tool firmly with both hands and provide for a
secure stance.
If the power tool jams, switch the tool off and loosen the tool insert. When switching the tool
on with the drilling tool jammed, high reaction torques can occur!
WARNING:
•As soon as the power tool jams, switch the tool off immediately. This will help prevent
premature wear of the tool.
Changing the Speed/Impact Rate
The rated speed and impact rate can be adjusted just by turning the adjusting dial 10. The dial
is marked MIN (lowest speed) to MAX (full speed).

Depth gauge (see figure 6)
The depth gauge 9 is convenient for drilling holes of uniform depth. Insert the depth gauge into
the hole in the grip base. Adjust the depth gauge to the desired depth and then tighten the
clamp screw 8 to secure the depth gauge.
Note: The depth gauge cannot be used at the position where the
depth gauge strikes against the tool body.
Bit grease
Coat the bit shank head beforehand with a small amount of bit grease (about 0.5 -1 g; 0.02 -
0.04 oz.). This chuck lubrication assures smooth action and longer service life
Changing the bit
Before any work on the tool itself, pull the mains plug.
With the SDS-plus tool holder, simpler and easier tool changing is possible without additional
aides.
The dust cap 1largely prevents the entry of drilling dust into the tool holder during operation.
When inserting the tool, take care that the dust cap 1is not damaged.
A damaged dust protection cap should be changed immediately. We recommend having this
carried out by an after-sales service.
Inserting the bit (see figure 7)
Clean and lightly grease the shank end of the tool.
Push back the locking sleeve 2 and Insert the bit in a twisting manner into the tool holder until
it locks itself.
After installing, always make sure that the bit is securely held in place by trying to pull it out.
Removing the bit (see figure 8)
Push back the locking sleeve 2all the way and pull the bit out.

Dust cup
Use the dust cup to prevent dust from falling over the tool and on yourself when performing
overhead drilling operations.
Grease feeding
Caution: Prior to grease feeding, always disconnect the plug from the power supply receptacle.
Since a grease chamber is built in this Rotary Hammer, it can be used for approximately 30 days
without supplying lubricating grease, assuming that the hammer is used continuously 2 hours
daily. Feeding grease into the grease tank as described below before using this hammer.
1. Just before no grease is visible in the grease tank window, when the device is held upright
feed grease to warm it up.
2. Before feeding grease, use the wrench to remove the grease cover. Be careful not to lose
the rubber packing attached below the grease cover.
3. Check the grease level weekly, confirming that grease is filled.
4. After feeding grease, securely clamp the grease cover.
OPERATION
Hammer drilling operation
First set the mode selector switch 4and the mode selector switch 5to the position shown in the
figure 3.
Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then pull the switch 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 the bit partially from the hole. By repeating this several times,
the hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling may be resumed.
WARNING:
•There is a tremendous and sudden twisting force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of
hole break-through, when the hole becomes clogged with chips and particles, or when
striking reinforcing rods embedded in the concrete. Always use the auxiliary handle and
firmly hold the tool by both auxiliary handle and switch handle during operations. Failure
to do so may result in the loss of control of the tool and potentially severe injury.

Chiseling operation
First set the mode selector switch 4 and the mode selector switch 5 to the position shown in the
figure 4.
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.
Drilling operation
First set the mode selector switch 4and the mode selector switch 5 to the position shown in the
figure 5.
Use the drill chuck assembly, you can drill up to 13 mm (1/2”) diameter in metal and up to 40
mm (1-9/16”) diameter in wood.
WARNING:
•Never use “Hammer drilling” when the drill chuck assembly is installed on the tool. The
drill chuck assembly may be damaged.
•Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive
pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performance and
shorten the service life of the tool.
•There is a tremendous twisting force exerted on the tool/ bit at the
•time of hole breakthrough. Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break
through the workpiece.
•Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold down device.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform
inspection or maintenance.
•For safe and proper working, always keep the tool and ventilation slots clean.
•The tool may be cleaned most effectively with compressed dry air. Always wear safety
goggles when cleaning tools with compressed air.
