Instruction & User Manual
m
If loose, clamp the work piece. The work
piece should lie flat on a workbench, and/or
be securely fixed.
m
Mark out the position of the hole by suitable
means.
m
Use a suitable drill bit for your material.
m
Ensure all drill bits are sharp.
m
When drilling in metal, make sure that the
drill bit is always sufficiently cooled with a
non-flammable liquid.
m
Start drilling at low speed.
m
If you are drilling large holes, pre drill with a
small drill bit and then finish off with a large
drill bit.
m
Do not force the power tool - do not press
too hard on the drill bit.
Hammer Drilling Mode
m
Set the selector ring in hammer mode to
connect the hammer function. The hammer
function allows more effective drilling into
hard, brittle materials such as concrete, brick
and stone.
Screw Driving Mode
m
Do not over-tighten screws.
This risks
damaging the screw head or thread.
To tighten screws:
m
Set the rotation selector to clockwise
rotation.
m
Place the bit into the screw head in line with
the screw. Otherwise the screw can be
damaged.
m
Press the bit firmly against the screw and
drive in the screw.
m
Once the screw is sufficiently tightened,
release the power switch
before
you stop
pressing in the screw, otherwise you can
damage the screw or screw head. The bit
or power tool can be damaged if you do
not release the power switch immediately.
To unscrew/loosen screws:
m
Set the rotation selector to anticlockwise
rotation.
m
Place the bit into the screw head in line with
the screw. Otherwise the screw can be
damaged.
m
Press the bit firmly against the screw and
loosen the screw.
Speed Control
Only use the speed control switch when the
power tool is stopped and the chuck is not
rotating. Otherwise the tool can be dam-
aged.
WARNING!
m
Move the speed control switch away from
the chuck to position 1 for low speed (0 to
450rpm).
m
Use the low speed mode for screw driving
and for drilling holes with a large diameter.
m
Move the speed control forwards towards
the chuck to position 2 for high speed (0 to
1600 rpm).
The drill bit can jam in deep holes. Release
the power switch immediately if the drill bit
jams. Switch to anticlockwise rotation and
run the drill bit loose at low speed.
NOTE
Check that the drill bit is correctly inserted
and the chuck is properly tightened before
starting the tool.
