GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term "power tool'' in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA
■Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
■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.
■Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
■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.
■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.
■Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
■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.
■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.
■ If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
■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.
■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.
■Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
■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.
■Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
■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.
■If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
■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.
■Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that can not be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
■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.
■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.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
■Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
bindling 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.
■Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
■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.
■Recommended for the use of a residual current
device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
SERVICE
■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.
SPECIAL RULES
■Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
■Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
■Hold the power tool by the insulated grips when
performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. A cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.
■This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(includingchildren)withreduced physical,sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervi-
sionor instruction concerninguse ofthe appliance
by a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
■Thisappliance isnot intendedfor useby youngchildren
or infirm persons.Adequate supervision by a responsi-
ble person must be provided to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
■Keepchildren andvisitors away.Visitorsshould wear
safety glasses and be kept a safe distance from work
area. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
■Complies with AS/NZS 60745.2.1 and 60745.1.

CHANGING BETWEEN DRILLING AND IMPACT
DRILLING MODE
See Figure 5.
The drilling mode shift knob (6) for changing between
the drilling mode and impact drilling mode is positioned
on the top of the tool.
DRILLING MODE: Shift the knob to the " " and
showing " " symbol for drilling.
IMPACT DRILLING MODE: Shift the knob to the " "
and showing " " symbol for impact drilling.
OPERATING
NEVER COVER THE AIR VENTS (9) SINCE THEY MUST
ALWAYS BE OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR COOLING.
DRILLING IN WOOD
To prevent ugly splits around the drill hole on the reverse
side of the workpiece, put a piece of scrap timber under
the work piece.
DRILLING IN METAL
Metals such as steel, brass, aluminum sheets, stainless
steel, and pipe may also be drilled. Mark the point to be
drilled with a nail or punch.
Do not use impact drilling mode on these materials.
DRILLING IN CONCRETE
Stone and masonry are generally drilled in the impact
drilling mode.
When drilling in delicate materials such as wall tiles,
it is essential to start with ordinary drilling and, once the
tile is pierced, to continue with impact drilling.
In deep bore holes the drill bit should be pulled out
occasionally in order to remove the debris from the
drill and hole.
AUXILIARY HANDLE
See Figure 6.
Auxiliary handle
The auxiliary handle (7) can be rotated 360º.
Loosen the handle grip by turning in direction (14),
and tighten it at an easy to use position by turning
the grip in direction (13).
Recommendation: Always be supplied via a residual
current device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or
less.
LIVETOOL INDICATOR™
This tool features a Livetool Indicator™ (10) which
illuminates as soon as the tool is connected to the power
supply. This warns the user that the tool is connected and
will operate when the switch is pressed.
