Inserting and removing a bit (fig. A,D)
Keyless chuck
The STDH8013C features a keyless chuck (8) for greater
convenience.
To Insert A Drill Bit Or Other Accessory.
• Grasp the rear half of the chuck with one hand and use
your other hand to rotate the front half counter clockwise,
as shown in Figure D. Rotate far enough so that the chuck
opens sufficiently to accept the desired accessory.
• Insert the bit or other accessory about 19 mm (3/4") into
the chuck and tighten securely by holding the rear half of
the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise
direction. When the chuck is nearly tightened, you will hear
a clicking sound. After 4–6 clicks, the chuck is securely
tightened around the accessory.
• To release the accessory, repeat step 1 listed above.
Warning! Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other
accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck and turning
the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may
result.
Keyless Chuck Removal (Fig. D)
Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not
supplied). Using a soft hammer or piece of wood, strike the
longer end in the counterclockwise direction. This will loosen
the chuck so that it can be unscrewed by hand.
Keyless Chuck Installation (Fig. D)
Screw the chuck on by hand as far as it will go. Tighten the
chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not supplied) and
strike the longer end in the clockwise direction with a soft
hammer.
Fitting the side handle (fig. A)
The side handle (6) can be fitted to suit both RH- and
LH-users.
Always use the drill with the side handle properly
assembled.
• Loosen the side handle.
• For RH-users, slide the side handle clamp overthe collar
behind the chuck, handle at the left.
• For LH-users, slide the side handle clamp colar behind the
chuck, handle at the right.
• Rotate the side handle to the desired positionand tighten
the handle.
Setting the drilling depth (fig. C)
• Insert the required drill bit into the chuck.
• Slacken the side handle (6).
• Fit the depth adjustment rod (7) through the hole in the
side handle clamp.
• Adjust the drilling depth as shown.
• Tighten the side handle.
Forward/reverse slider (fig. A)
• To select forward or reverse rotation, use the
forward/reverse-switch (3) (see arrow on tool).
Always wait until the motor has come to a complete
standstill before changing the direction of rotation.
Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions and applicable
regulations.
• Be aware of the location of pipework and wiring.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool. Excessive force
does not speed up drilling but decreases tool performance
and may shorten tool life.
• Wear ear protectors with impact drills.Exposure to noise
can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
