OPERATION
■
When the reverse selector is pushed in, the bit rotates
counterclockwise.
MOUNTING AND REMOVING THE BIT
See Figure 4.
■
Insert the drill bit (9) into the chuck as far as the plain
part of its shank will go.
■
Tighten the chuck securely by rotating the chuck head
in a clockwise direction (12).
■
The bit can be removed by rotating the chuck in a
counterclockwise direction (13).
CHANGING BETWEEN DRILLING AND IMPACT
DRILLING MODE
See Figure 5.
The drilling mode shift knob (6) for changing between
the drilling mode and impact drilling mode is positioned
on the top of the tool.
DRILLING MODE: Shift the knob to the "
" and
showing "
" symbol for drilling.
IMPACT DRILLING MODE: Shift the knob to the "
"
and showing "
" symbol for impact drilling.
OPERATING
NEVER COVER THE AIR VENTS (10) SINCE THEY
MUST ALWAYS BE OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR
COOLING.
DRILLING IN WOOD
To prevent ugly splits around the drill hole on the reverse
side of the workpiece, put a piece of scrap timber under
the work piece.
DRILLING IN METAL
Metals such as steel, brass, aluminum sheets, stainless
steel, and pipe may also be drilled. Mark the point to be
drilled with a nail or punch.
Do not use impact drilling mode on these materials.
DRILLING IN CONCRETE
Stone and masonry are generally drilled in the impact
drilling mode.
When drilling in delicate materials such as wall tiles,
it is essential to start with ordinary drilling and, once the
tile is pierced, to continue with impact drilling.
In deep bore holes the drill bit should be pulled out
occasionally in order to remove the debris from the
drill and hole.
AUXILIARY HANDLE AND DEPTH GAUGE
See Figure 6.
Auxiliary handle
The auxiliary handle (8) can be rotated 360º.
Loosen the handle grip by turning in direction (15),
and tighten it at an easy to use position by turning
the grip in direction (14).
Depth gauge
Holes of a fixed depth can be accurately bored by using
the depth gauge (7).
The depth of the hole will be the distance from the end
of the bit to the end of the depth gauge.
By turning the handle grip in direction (14), the depth
gauge can be released and the depth adjusted. After
adjusting the depth, fix the depth gauge again by turning
the handle grip in direction (15).
BIT STORAGE
See Figure 7.
The auxiliary handle also contains a compartment to
store drill bits. To access this compartment unscrew
the end cap below the grey trim on the handle in an
anticlockwise direction.
SPINDLE LOCK
See Figure 8.
For easy changing of the drill bit this drill is equipped with
an automatic spindle lock (17) which holds the spindle
stationary when loosening and tightening the chuck.
CHANGING THE ROTATION SPEED
See Figure 6.
The rotation speed can only be changed when the tool is
at a standstill.
The gear setting switch (19) is on the left side of the
housing.
■
When the switch is in position “1” the tool is in the low
gear.
■
When the switch is in position “2” the tool is in the
high gear.
