The purpose of safety rules is to attract your attention to
possible dangers. The safety symbols and the explanations with
them, require your careful attention and understanding. The
safety warnings do not by themselves eliminate any danger.
The instruction or warnings they give are not substitutes for
proper accident prevention measures.

the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
2. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY PREVENTING
BODY CONTACT WITH GROUNDED SURFACES. For
example, pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches
invite accidents.

DRILLING IN WOOD
To prevent ugly splits around the drill hole on
the reverse side of the work piece, put a piece
of scrap timber under the work piece.

stainless steel and pipe may also be drilled. Mark
the point to be drilled with a nail or punch.

When drilling in delicate materials such as wall,
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 dust and
chips from the hole.

The gear setting button (10) is on the left side
of the housing. When the botton is in position

torque for large diameter drilling and high
torque screwdriving.
When the botton is in position “2” the tool is in
the high gear which produces a higher speed
for more efficient drilling.
