Electronic Speed and Impact Control (Fig. A)
The electronic speed and impact control allows the use of
optimal tool control for precise chiseling.
To set the electronic speed and impact control dial
10
, turn the
dial to the desired level. The higher the number, the greater the
speed and impact energy. Dial settings make the tool extremely
flexible and adaptable for many different appli cations. The
required setting depends on the chisel size and hardness of
material being chiselled.
• When chiselling in soft, brittle materials or when minimum
break‑out is required, set the dial to a low setting;
• When breaking in harder materials, set the dial to a
high setting.

Active Vibration Control (AVC) System
For best vibration control, hold the tool as described in
Proper
Hand Position
and apply just enough pressure so the damping
device on the main handle is approximately mid stroke.
The active vibration control neutralises rebound vibration from
the hammer mechanism. Lowering hand and arm vibration,
it allows more comfortable use for longer periods of time and
extends the life of the unit.
The hammer only needs enough pressure to engage the active
vibraton control. Applying too much pressure will not make
the tool drill or chip faster and active vibration control will
not engage.
Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows the impact rate to build up more
slowly, thus preventing the chisel or point from “bouncing”
around on the masonry when starting up.
