Selecting the Gear Speed
1.
Set the rotational direction switch to the middle position.
Caution:
To minimize the risk of accidental activation,
always ensure the rotational direction switch is in the
neutral (middle) position before performing any
maintenance work on the hammer drill, as well as
during transportation and storage.
2.
Do one of the following:
Push the gear selector toward the keyless chuck to select
low speed.
Push the gear selector away from the keyless chuck to
select high speed.
Caution:
If the gear selector cannot be pushed all the
way, lightly turn the chuck. The hammer drill has a
speed gear clutch, and the gear teeth sometimes hit
together, causing the gear selector to stick. Turning the
chuck releases the teeth and frees the gear selector. Do
not force the gear selector when it is stuck, as this may
break the gears.
Switching the Hammer Drill On or Off
♦
Press the On/Off trigger, and keep it pressed. You can increase
the speed of the hammer drill by increasing the pressure on
the switch. To switch off the hammer drill, release the On/Off
trigger.
Note:
When the On/Off trigger is not pressed, the
spindle and the tool holder are locked. This allows the
hammer drill to be used as a screwdriver, even when
the battery is dead.
