APPLICATIONS
(use only for the purposes listed below).
1. Drilling wood, metal and resin boards
2. Drilling concrete
MOUNTING OF BIT
(Fig 1.)
When mounting the bit, first pulling open rear half of the chuck
to release the lock, insert the bit into the chuck as far as it will go
and hand tighten the chuck to secure the bit, then pushing rear
half of the chuck to lock it. The bit can be removed by reversing
above procedure.
SWITCHES
(Fig 2.)
Your drill starts and stops by squeezing and releasing the trigger
switch. For continuous operation, press the lock-on button while
the trigger switch is fully depressed. To release the lock, squeeze
the trigger switch again.
FORWARD REVERSE SWITCH
(Fig 3.)
Your Impact Drill is fitted with a reversing lever which allows the
removal of screws.
Forward Rotation:
Situate the lever in the “R” (forward) position
indicated on your drill.
Reverse Rotation:
Situate the lever in the “L” (reverse) position
indicated on your drill.
VARIABLE SPEED
(Fig 4.)
Your drill has a variable speed control mechanism designed to
allow the operator control and adjustment of speed and torque
limits. The speed and torque of your drill can be increased by
rotating the variable speed control button.
HAMMER MECHANISM
(Fig 5.)
The hammer mechanism can be operated with the machine
running. When drilling materials that are liable to break, such as
tiles, it is advisable to start the drill without impact. For deep
holes, frequently remove the tool to exhaust chips from the hole.
To drill with impact, only use drills with carbide tip and negative
cut angle on the lip. Carbide tip drills should only be sharpened
with silicone carbide wheels.
To work WITHOUT HAMMER, as a normal drill, turn the lever to
the point where a drill is printed. To work WITH HAMMER, push
the lever to the position where a hammer is printed.
