Vibration level
The vibration emission level stated in this instruction manual has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it may be used to compare one tool with another and as a preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration when using the tool for the applications mentioned
- using the tool for different applications, or with different or poorly maintained accessories, may significantly increase the exposure level
- the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job, may significantly reduce the exposure level
Protect yourself against the effects of vibration by maintaining the tool and its accessories, keeping your hands warm, and organizing your work patterns

2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Explanation of the symbols

Denotes risk of personal injury, loss of life or damage to the tool in case of non-observance of the instructions in this manual.

Indicates electrical shock hazard.

Wear ear and eye protection.

Wear a dust mask. Working with wood, metals and other materials may produce dust that is harmful to health. Do not work with material containing asbestos.
Specific safety instructions
For use of this machine/tool:
- Inspect the surface to be drilled for hidden electrical wiring, gas pipes or other obstacles (for example, using a metal detector).
-
Check the following points:
-
Does the appliance's voltage correspond with the mains power supply voltage?
- Are power cords, insulation and plug in good order: sound, not loose or damaged?
- Is there a good, firm connection at the mains socket?
- Does the drill show any sign of abnormal running, overheating or excessive sparking?
-
Whenever any of the problems mentioned above appear, immediately cease using the machine and have it repaired by an expert.
-
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
- Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and give the operator an electric shock.
Electrical safety
When using electric machines always observe the safety regulations applicable in your country to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Read the following safety instructions and also the enclosed safety instructions.

Always check that the mains voltage is the same as on the type plate of the machine.

Class II machine - Double insulation - You don't need any earthed plug.
Replacement of power cords or plugs
Immediately dispose of old cords and plugs once they have been replaced.
It is dangerous to plug a loose power cord into a mains power socket.
Use of extension leads
Only ever use approved extension leads that are suitable for the power rating of the machine. The minimum core thickness is 1.5 mm^2 . Whenever using a reel extension lead, always fully unroll the lead.
Immediately switch off the machine when:
- Excessive sparking of the carbon brushes and verticiliosis in the collector.
- Interruption of the mains plug, mains lead or mains lead damage.
- Defect switch
- Smoke or stench of scorched isolation
3. OPERATING

Hammer drills require very little operator pressure. Excessive pressure on the tool can lead to unnecessary overheating of the motor, and burning of the driven tool.
Auxiliary handgrip
The auxiliary handgrip can be rotated 360° around the drill head, enabling safe and comfortable operation, for both left and right-handed users.
- Loosen the handgrip by turning it anticlockwise.
- Rotate the handgrip to the desire position.
- Retighten the handgrip in the new position.
Exchanging and removing drill bits
Fig. A + B

Before exchanging bits, first remove the power plug from the wall socket.

Inspect bits regularly during use. Blunt bits should be re-sharpened or replaced.
- Lightly oil the bit shaft before inserting it into the chuck.
- Slide the locking sleeve (7) to the rear, and insert the bit into the chuck opening. Ensure that the keyway in the bit is seated properly in the chuck, by carefully turning the bit until it clicks into place. Release the locking sleeve.
- To remove the bit, slide and hold the locking sleeve to the rear.
Setting depth gauge
Fig. A
- Loosen the handgrip by turning it anticlockwise.
- Insert the depth gauge ruler through the hole in the auxiliary handgrip.
- Slide the ruler to the desired depth. Retighten the screw firmly.
Function selection switch

D: Demolition hammer/chisel
The On/Off switch
Fig. A
- Switch the machine on by pressing the triggerswitch (2). When you release the triggerswitch (2) the machine will turn off.
Switch-lock
- You can lock the On/Off switch by pressing the triggerswitch (2) and then pressing knob (4). Release the switch-lock by pressing the triggerswitch (2) shortly.
Speed-control
- The rotation-speed can be continuously adjusted from 0 to 950 and 0 to 4500 rotations
per minute by pressing the switch (2) deeper or less deep.
Adjusting of the maximum rotation speed
- Switch the machine on by pressing triggerswitch (2).
- Lock the triggerswitch (2) by pressing knob (4).
- Adjust the speed by turning the small wheel (3) to the desired maximum rotation speed.
Switching the direction of rotation
- Direction of rotation counter-clockwise: shift switch to “▶”.
- Direction of rotation clockwise: shift switch to “◀”.
This function is only available when the machine is set to "drill mode".
User tips
Always use the machine with the auxiliary handgrip firmly anchored in place – you will not only work with more comfort, you will also work with more precision.
Hammer drilling in concrete or brick

Caution: Stone drills can get very hot.
It may be necessary to drill with smaller bits and re-drill to nominal size so that later the plug is firmly seated.
For large bores, for instance in very hard concrete, use a smaller bit for pilot drilling and re-drill to nominal size.
Do not apply a lot of pressure on the machine, let the machine do the work, guiding the machine with light pressure is sufficient.
Hold the machine with the auxiliary handle, the bit can jam, particularly with deep bores, and the machine will turn.
Chipping in concrete and brick
You can also use the machine for chipping.
Prior to starting work ensure that the front selection switch and handle selection switch are fully engaged. Do not operate the hammer drill with selection switches in mid position. Only change the function when the motor has come to a standstill.
Here as well: Do not apply a lot of pressure on the machine, let the machine do the work, guiding
the machine with light pressure is sufficient.
4. MAINTENANCE
