GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
6
Warning! Read 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
1) Work area
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) 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.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) 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.
e) 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.
3) Personal safety
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

7
GENERAL SAFETY RULES (cont.)
f) 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.
g) 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.
4) Power tool use and care
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) 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 those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) 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.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROTARY HAMMER DRILLS
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Recommendations for the use of a residual current device with a rated residual
current of 30mA or less.
Before drilling into walls, ceilings etc, ensure there are no concealed power cables
or pipes in the cavity.
Always use the side handle, this gives you greater control if the accessory should
become jammed.
Keep the cord clear of the accessory being used, do not wrap the cord around your
arm or wrist.
Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the exposure time by taking frequent breaks.
Vibration caused by the hammer action may be harmful to your hands and arms.
When removing an accessory from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the bit or accessory. Accessories may be hot after
prolonged use.
Warning! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints;
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products, and;
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated timber.
The risk from such exposures vary depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals; work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Always wear eye protection and a dust mask for dusty applications and when
drilling/chiselling overhead. Sanding particles can be absorbed by your eyes and
inhaled easily and may cause health complications.

drill bit currently assembled to the tool extends beyond the end of the metal depth rod
(2) to the required drilling depth. To secure the metal depth rod (2) into position, tighten
the depth rod locking knob (3) clockwise until tight. Once the metal depth rod (2) has
been set, proceed to drill the hole until the end of the metal depth rod (2) touches the
work piece, then remove the drill bit from the hole. The depth of the hole will be the
same as the depth the metal depth rod (2) was set to.
SDS+ Accessories
SDS+ accessories (13,14,15,16, 17 & 18) should only be secured into the SDS+
accessory holder (1) of the tool.
Important: The 13mm keyed chuck (18) is not intended for use with SDS+
accessories. SDS+ accessories should be fitted directly into the tools
accessory holder (1). Using SDS+ accessories in the 13mm keyed chuck (18) may
result in permanent damage to the chuck. Such damage will not be covered
under warranty.
Fitting a SDS+ accessory
Prior to fitting a SDS+ accessory, remove any dust or
debris from the SDS+ shank of the accessory.
Pull the tools accessory locking sleeve (12) back towards
the body of the tool (away from the SDS+ Accessory
holder (1). Insert the desired SDS+ accessory into the
SDS+ accessory holder (1); rotate the accessory to
make sure it has been inserted as far as it will go, then
release the accessory locking sleeve (12).
With the tools accessory locking sleeve (12) having been released, check the
assembled SDS+ accessory has locked in place by trying to pull it out. SDS+
accessories will have a small amount of back and forth movement from the accessory
holder (1); this is normal.
Note: You may notice some “wobble” of the accessory when the tool is run in a no
load condition. This is due to the assembly of the quick change SDS+ tool holder. This
is normal; the bit automatically centres itself and produces accurate holes as soon as
load is placed upon the tool.
SDS+ Shank

Warning! Accessories may be hot after use. Avoid direct contact with skin, use
gloves or a cloth to remove.
Removing a SDS+ accessory
To remove the SDS+ accessory, pull the accessory locking sleeve (12) back towards the

The chuck and adaptor (18) is a SDS+ shank combined with a 13mm keyed chuck. This
is ONLY intended for use with normal drill bits and with the hammer function turned off.
Important: The 13mm keyed chuck (18) is not intended for use with SDS+
accessories. SDS+ accessories should be fitted directly into the tools accessory holder
(1). Using SDS+ accessories in the 13mm keyed chuck (18) may result in permanent
damage to the chuck. Such damage will not be covered under warranty.
To use the chuck and adaptor first ensure the SDS+ accessory holder (of the tool) is
empty (no other accessories currently fitted). Insert the SDS+ shank of the chuck
into the accessory holder (1) as previously described under SDS+ Accessories.
SDS+ Accessory shank lubrication
It is recommended to lubricate your accessories
when they become dry or the lubrication becomes
dirty from the debris & dust created during
operation. Using a cloth, simply apply a small
amount of grease (supplied in your kit box) to the
SDS+ accessory shank.
Inserting drill bits into the 13mm keyed chuck

Chiseling
Rotate the mode selector on the side of the drill to the hammer icon, and rotate
the rear mode selector to the drill and hammer icon. This setting is recommended
for use when desiring a hammer action without the accessory rotating which is
ideal for “chiseling or chipping” away at masonry products or files, point or chisel
accessory bits should be used.
Drilling
Rotate the mode selector on the side of the drill to the hammer and drill icon, and
rotate the rear mode selector to the drill icon. This setting is recommended for use
when you desire the accessory to rotate without hammer action. Ideal for drilling
into timber or steel when correct accessories for such materials are used.
• Keep the ventilation vents of the tool clean at all times, if possible, prevent
foreign matter from entering the vents.
• After each use, blow air through the tool housing to ensure it is free from all
dust particles which may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the
tool to overheat and fail.
•If the enclosure of the tool requires cleaning do not use solvents but a moist
soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part
of the tool into a liquid.
Gear box grease replenishment
The grease in the gearbox will require replenishment after approximately 50 hours
accumulative use. After this time add approximately 50 grams (approx 2 – 3 tea
spoons) of the grease (supplied), into the gearbox. First remove the grease cap (5)
from the tool by using the pin spanner (21). Once removed, add the grease
through this hole. Ensure the grease cap (5) is secured back into position prior to
operation. Further grease (normal ball bearing grease) can be purchased through

MAINTENANCE

Carbon brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the tool will spark and/or
stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens. They should
be replaced prior to recommencing use of the tool. Carbon
brushes are a wearing component of the tool therefore not
covered under warranty. Continuing to use the tool when
carbon brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent
damage to the tool. Carbon brushes will wear out after many
uses but when the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take
the tool to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost
replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by
the repair of the tool by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
Hammer function not impacting
On initial use & after repacking grease (every 50 hours accumulative use) of a rotary
hammer, it may be found the hammer mode does not impact.
During the manufacturing process, grease is packed into the hammer function for
lubrication. If there is excess grease, you may find the rotary hammer will not activate
when the product is first used.
To activate, first insert a SDS+ chisel or point accessory and then set to the modes to
hammer function. Hold the rotary hammer securely with both hands and squeeze the
on/off switch (8) to start the drill.
With the tool turned on, firmly tap the chisel or drill bit up and down onto a scrap piece
of material and the hammer function will engage.
Sparking visible through the housing air vents
A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is normal
and does not indicate a problem.
Excessive sparking visible through the housing air vents and/or the tool failing
to operate
May indicate the carbon brushes have worn down and need to
be replaced. Carbon brushes should only be replaced by
a qualified electrician or power tool repairer.
