Operating Instructions
INSTALLING SDS-plus
®
ACCESSORIES
Clean the insert shank end of the accessory to
remove any debris, then lightly grease with a
light oil or lubricant
Insert accessory into the bit holder through the
dust shield, while twisting and pushing inward
until it locks automatically into place. Pull
outward on the accessory to be certain it is
locked into the bit holder (Fig. 2).
NOTE:
The high efficiency available from the
rotary hammers can only be obtained if sharp
and undamaged accessories are used. The
"cost" to maintain sharp and undamaged
accessories is more than offset by the "time
saved" in operating the tool with sharp
accessories.
REMOVING SDS-plus
®
ACCESSORIES

use. Avoid contact with skin
and use proper protective gloves or cloth to
remove.

VARIABLE SPEED CONTROLLED
TRIGGER SWITCH
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
trigger switch. The tool can be turned "ON" or
"OFF" by squeezing or releasing the trigger.
The speed can be adjusted from the minimum
to maximum nameplate RPM by the pressure
you apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure
to increase the speed and release pressure to
decrease speed Fig. 1).
To reduce the risk of injury
immediately discontinue use
of the tool if the variable speed control ceases
to function. Subsequent loss of on/off control
of the trigger switch is likely.
FORWARD/REVERSING LEVER &
TRIGGER LOCK
Your tool is equipped with a forward/
reversing lever and trigger lock located above
the trigger (Fig. 4). This lever was designed
for changing rotation of the chuck, and for
locking the trigger in an “OFF” position to help
prevent accidental starts and accidental
battery discharge.
For forward rotation, (with chuck pointed away
from you) move the lever to the far left. For
reverse rotation move the lever to the far right.
To activate trigger lock move lever to the
center off position.
Do not change direction of
rotation until the tool comes
to a complete stop. Shifting during rotation of
the chuck can cause damage to the tool.
