Auxiliary handle
The auxiliary handle (7) can be rotated 360˚.
Loosen the handle grip by turning in direction L, and tigh-
en it at an easy to-use position by turning the grip in ditec-
tion M.
By using the depth gauge (6) holes of a fixed depth can be
accurately bored.
The depth of the hole will be the distance from the end of
the bit to the end of the stopper pole.
By turning the handle grip in direction L, the stopper pole
can be released and the depth adjusted. After adjusting
the depth, fix the stopper pole again by turning the handle
grip in direction M.
After use, check the tool to make sure that it is in top
condition. It is recommended that you take this tool to a
RYOBI Authorized Service Center for a thorough cleaning
and lubrication at least once a year.
DO NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS WHILE THE
MOTOR IS IN MOTION.
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM THE
RECEPTACLE BEFORE CHANGING REMOVABLE OR
EXPENDABLE PARTS (BLADE, BIT, SANDING PAPER
ETC.), LUBRICATING OR WORKING ON THE UNIT.
WARNING
To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should
be performed by an AUTHORIZED SERVICE
CENTER or other QUALIFIED SERVICE
ORGANIZATION.

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 lumber 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.
DRILLING IN CONCRETE
Rock and masonry are generally drilled in the impact drilling
mode.
When drilling in delicate materials such as tiled wall, 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 dust and chips from the
hole.
