CLEANING
CAUTION! Excessive build up of dust
particles may cause the tool to overheat and
fail.
1. Keep the ventilation slots of the tool clean at all times.
If possible prevent foreign matter from entering the
vents.
2. After each use, blow air through the tool housing to
ensure it is free from all dust particles that may build
up.
3. If the enclosure of the tool requires cleaning, use a
soft, moist cloth only. Do not use solvents.
CAUTION! Never immerse any part of the
tool in liquid.
Checking the Oil Level
The oil level should be checked before each use.
1. Lay the tool on its side with the base facing you.
2. Inspect the oil view window. The level should be half
way up the view window.
3. If the level is lower than this then you must add more
oil following the procedure below.
Adding Oil
The oil tank is approximately 45ml, therefore you should
add oil in small amounts.
Recommended Oil: SAE 15W/40 or an alternative
of the same quality.
1. Lay the tool upside down so that the view window is
facing up.
2. Unscrew the view window anti-clockwise using the

3. Add a small amount of oil through the view window
hole.
4. Screw the view window back in and tighten using the
supplied spanner in a clockwise direction.
5. Recheck the oil level and repeat this process if
necessary.
Carbon Brushes
Carbon brushes will wear out after many uses, causing
the sander to spark and/or stop. The brushes are
a wearing component of the sander and should be
replaced prior to the carbon wearing out completely.
Take the sander to a suitably qualied electrician or
power tool repairer for replacement. Always replace
both brushes at the same time.

TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Not chiselling or low breaking power:
- Tool temperature is low;
- Accessories are not lubricated;
- Refer to the section ‘Cold Hammering’ below on how
to resolve this issue.
2. Accessory is jammed/stuck in concrete
during use:
- Release the accessory locking mechanism, allowing
the demolition breaker to be separated from the
accessory. The accessory should be easily removed
from the concrete once it is detached from the
demolition hammer.
3. Accessory repeatedly becomes stuck
while in use:
- Free the accessory as described above. Refrain
from penetrating too deeply with the chisel bit, as it
is prone to becoming stuck when demolishing large
pieces of concrete.
4. A small amount of sparking is visible
through the housing air vents:
- This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
5. Excessive sparking is visible through
the housing air vents and/or the
demolition breaker is failing to operate:
- This may indicate the carbon brushes have worn out
and need to be replaced. Carbon brushes should
only be replaced by a qualied electrician or power
tool repairer.
Cold Hammering
If the demolition hammer is stored for long periods
of time of at cold temperatures, the lubrication may
become stiff and the demolition hammer may not
hammer initially or the hammering may be weak.
Should this occur, insert an accessory into the
demolition hammer, turn the demolition hammer on
and apply the end of the accessory against a scrap
piece of concrete or timber. Turn the demolition
hammer on and off every few seconds. After 15
seconds to 2 minutes, the demolition hammer should
have started to hammer normally. The colder the
demolition hammer, the longer it may take to warm up
and function like normal.
Note: Always wait until the accessory has stopped
moving before putting down the demolition hammer.

When operating the tool
Keep the mains cable away from any moving parts or
accessories.
Never cover the ventilation slots in the tool.
Electrical safety
The electric motor has been designed for 230-240V
only. Always check that the power supply corresponds
to the voltage on the rating plate.
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required.
The power supply for this product should be protected
by a residual current device (rated at 30mA or less).
A residual current device reduces the risk of electric
shock.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Using an extension lead
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for
the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect the
extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing.
Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always
unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead
not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is
damaged or defective may result in a risk of re and
electric shock.
It is recommended that the extension lead is a
maximum of 25m in length. DO not use multiple
extension leads.
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety
warnings and all instructions. Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, re and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and instructions
for future reference. The term “power
tool” in all of the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
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 ammable 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. Unmodied
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.
f) 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.
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
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Personal
protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the o󰀨-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energising 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.
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 dust
collection 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 o󰀨. 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 a󰀨ect 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.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
