Check the product as well as accessories for damage before each
use. Do not use the product if it is damaged or shows wear.
Double check that the accessories and attachments are properly
fixed.
Always hold the product on its main handle as well as auxiliary
for operation. Keep the handle dry to ensure safe support.
Switch the product off immediately if you are disturbed while
working by other people entering the working area. Always let the
product come to complete stop before putting it down.
Do not overwork yourself. Take regular breaks to ensure you can
concentrate on the work and have full control over the product.
Set the mode adjustment knob to ‘hammer-drilling’ position for
concrete and masonry drilling operations.
Always hold the product perpendicular to the point to be drilled.
Holding at an angle may cause slipping/jamming of the drill bit.
Always place the drill tip directly on the point to be drilled first
and then switch the product on.
Pre-drill larger holes with a small diameter drill bit first. Doing so
makes drilling with a larger diameter drill bit easier.
Do not ‘always’ drill at top speed. This unnecessarily increases
the wear and tear of the product and drill bit.
Remove blocked and stuck drill bits by changing the rotational
direction.
Adjust the auxiliary handle as required. If necessary, set the
depth rod.
Always switch off the tool when work is finished and before
unplugging.
