WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR 

DRILL (HAMMER)

If your power tool becomes over heated, set 

the speed to maximum and run no load for 2-3 

minutes to cool the motor. SDS-plus tungsten 

carbide drill bits should always be used for 

concrete and masonry. 

When drilling in metal, only use HSS drill bits 

in good condition. Where possible use a pilot 

hole before drilling a large diameter hole.

MAINTENANcE

Remove the plug from the socket before 

carrying out any adjustment, servicing or 

maintenance.

There are no user serviceable parts in your 

power tool. Never use water or chemical 

cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean 

with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool 

in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots 

clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. 

Occasionally you may see sparks through the 

ventilation slots. This is normal and will not 

damage your power tool.                                  

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be 

replaced by the manufacturer, its service 

agent or similarly qualified persons in order to 

avoid a hazard.
