Torque limiting clutch
All Rotary Hammer Drills are equipped with a torque
limiting clutch that reduces the maximum torque
reaction transmitted to the operator in case of jamming
of a drill bit. This feature also prevents the gearing and
electric motor from stalling. The torque limiting clutch
has been factory-set and cannot be adjusted.
Electrical safety
The electric motor has been designed for one
voltage only. Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Your D
E
WALT tool is double insulated in
accordance with EN 50144; therefore no
earth wire is required.
Mains plug replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you
are competent to do this, proceed as instructed
below. If you are in doubt, contact an authorized
D

WALT repair agent or a qualified electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug
with bared copper conductors is dangerous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.

fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality

in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)
and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
