For rotation with hammering, turn the ring so that the
arrow points toward the mark on the ring.
For rotation with clutch, turn the ring so that the arrow
points toward the mark on the ring.
Adjusting the fastening torque
(screwdriver mode “ ”) (Fig. 10)
The fastening torque can be adjusted in 21 steps by
turning the adjusting ring so that its graduations are
aligned with the pointer on the tool body.
First, slide the action mode change lever to the position of
symbol.
The fastening torque is minimum when the number 1 is
aligned with the pointer, and maximum when the marking
is aligned with the pointer. The clutch will slip at various
torque levels when set at the number 1 to 21. Before
actual operation, drive a trial screw into your material or a
piece of duplicate material to determine which torque level
is required for a particular application.
NOTE:
• The adjusting ring does not lock when the pointer is
positioned only halfway between the graduations.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any
work on the tool.
Installing side grip (auxiliary handle)
(Fig. 11)
Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety.
Insert the side grip so that the groove on the arm fit in one
of the counter parts on the tool. Then tighten the grip by
turning clockwise.
Depending the operations, you can install the side grip
either right or left side of the tool.
Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit
(Fig. 12)
Turn the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck jaws.
Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Turn the
sleeve clockwise to tighten the chuck. To remove the bit,
turn the sleeve counterclockwise.
Installing bit holder (Fig. 13)
Fit the bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot on
either right or left side and secure it with a screw.
When not using the driver bit, keep it in the bit holders.
Bits 45 mm long can be kept there.
Adjustable depth rod (Fig. 14)
The adjustable depth rod is used to drill holes of uniform
depth. Loosen the clamp screw, set to desired position,
then tighten the clamp screw.
Hook (Fig. 15)
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool.
To install the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool
housing on either side and then secure it with a screw. To
remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.
OPERATION (Fig. 16)
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
• There is a tremendous and sudden twisting force
exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole break-
through, when the hole becomes clogged with chips
and particles, or when striking reinforcing rods
embedded in the concrete. Always use the side grip
(auxiliary handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side
grip and switch handle during operations. Failure to do
so may result in the loss of control of the tool and
potentially severe injury.
First, slide the action mode change lever so that it points
to the marking. The adjusting ring can be aligned in any
torque levels for this operation.
Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped bit.
Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then
pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light pressure
gives best results. Keep the tool in position and prevent it
from slipping away from the hole.
Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes
clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an
idle, then remove the bit partially from the hole. By
repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out
and normal drilling may be resumed.
Blow-out bulb (optional accessory)
(Fig. 17)
After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the
dust out of the hole.
Screwdriving operation
First, slide the action mode change lever so that it points
to the marking. Adjust the adjusting ring to the proper
torque level for your work. Then proceed as follows.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then
increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger
as soon as the clutch cuts in.
NOTE:
• Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the
screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.
• When driving wood screw, predrill a pilot hole 2/3 the
diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier and
prevents splitting of the workpiece.
• If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for
15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
Drilling operation
CAUTION:
• Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the
drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve
to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool
performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
