FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Spline shank hammer bit can be accepted.
Hammer bits for HR3520B, HR3850B and HR5000
can be used also with this HR4040C.
In case of employing as a demolition hammer,
the BOSCH type shank bit of 3/4" hex / 21/32"round can be
used also with HR4040C.
Simple slide locking chuck
Simple slide lock for securing inserted bit
Chisels can be locked at 12 positions through 360
°
.
By turning change ring while pushing it forward, the angle of chisel can be adjusted without taking
out inserted chisels.
Full resin covered body to protect the user from the electric shock.
The followings are the same features and benefits as those of HR4000C, HR5001C etc.
Simple slide lock for securing inserted tools
Its color tells how your machine is.
Green: On with no problem
Red : Approx. 8 hours before carbon brushes wear out
Off : Possibly trouble in switch or power supply cord
New dust sealing front cap prevents particles of dust from coming in
through the front of machine.
Electronic Speed Control Dial Optimum hammering speed can be selected in accordance with materials or tools.
Setting at low speed, ideal for such a light chipping works as scraping tiles,
removing bricks joint.
New Torque Limiting System Thanks to the Ball Clutch, stable torque control is assured even after long term use.
Large Rear Handle
Convenient Indicator Lamp
Auto Shut-off Carbon Brushes
Simple Slide Locking Chuck
Further Improvement in Dust proof Structure
Replaceable without removing rear cover of machine.
(HILTI's model requires removal of rear cover.)
Easy Replacement of Power Supply Cord
Body Wholly Covered with Resin No electric shock to operator, even if bit accidentally hits against laid electric cables.
Barrel is also covered with resin, and so, it is possible to do chipping operations while
holding barrel with your hand.
Easy-to-Operate Large Trigger Fatigue-free in fingers even in a long continuous operation.
Can be gripped with both hands - convenient in downward chipping operations.
Big Action Mode Change Lever For easy shift of action mode
Thick Commutator The effective thickness of is segments has been enlarged.
Zig-Zag Varnish on Armature Coil For effective radiation from coil while protecting coil from dusts
