The equipment is to be used only for its prescri- bed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or inju- ries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been de- signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Warning! The specifi ed vibration value was established in accordance with a standardized testing method. It may change according to how the electric equip- ment is used and may exceed the specifi ed value in exceptional circumstances. The specifi ed vibration value can be used to compare the equipment with other electric power tools. The specifi ed vibration value can be used for initi- al assessment of a harmful eff ect. Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

Only use appliances which are in perfect wor- king order.

Service and clean the appliance regularly.

Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.

Do not overload the appliance.

Have the appliance serviced whenever ne- cessary.

Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.

Wear protective gloves. Residual risks Even if you use this electric power tool in accordance with instructions, certain resi- dual risks cannot be rules out. The following hazards may arise in connection with the equipment’s construction and layout:

3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vib-

rations if the equipment is used over a pro- longed period or is not properly guided and maintained.

5. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data. Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment. Check the drilling point for concealed electrical cables, gas and water pipes using a cable/pipe detector.

5.1 Additional handle (Fig. 2 – Item 6)

For safety reasons you must only use the hammer drill with the additional handle. The additional handle (6) enables you to achieve better stability whilst using the hammer drill. The machine must not be used without the additional handle (6) for safety reasons. The additional handle (6) is secured to the hammer drill by a clamp. Turning the handle anti- clockwise (looking from the handle) will release the clamp. Turning the handle clockwise will tigh- ten the clamp. Anleitung_A_BH_1200_Max_SPK7.indb 15Anleitung_A_BH_1200_Max_SPK7.indb 15 15.03.12 09:3715.03.12 09:37GBR

First release the additional handle clamp. You can then swing the additional handle (6) into the most comfortable working position for you. Now turn the additional handle in the opposite direction again until the additional handle is secure.

5.2 Depth stop (Fig. 3 – Item 7)

The depth stop (7) is held in place with the lo- cking screw (a) on the additional handle (6) by means of a clamp.

Undo the locking screw (a) and fit the depth stop (7).

Set the depth stop (7) to the same level as the drill bit.

Pull the depth stop (7) back by the required drilling depth.

Retighten the locking screw (a).

Now drill the hole until the depth stop (7) tou- ches the workpiece. 5.3. Tool insertion (Fig. 4)

Clean the tool before insertion and apply a thin coating of drill bit grease to the shaft of the tool.

Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (2).

Insert the dust-free tool into the tool mounting as far as it will go whilst turning it. The tool will lock itself.

Check that it is properly secure by pulling the tool.

5.4 Tool removal (Fig. 5)

Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (2) and re- move the tool.

5.5 Dust collection device (Fig. 6)

Slide the dust collection device (a) over the drill bit before carrying out any hammer drilling verti- cally above your head.

Important. To prevent all danger, the machine must only be held using the two handles (6/8). Otherwise there may be a risk of suff ering an electric shock if you drill into cables.

6.1 Status indicator (Fig. 1/Item 9)

The status indicator (9) lights up when the power plug is connected.

6.2 Switching on and off (Fig. 1)

You can use the speed controller (5) to pre-select the required speed of rotation and blow rate. Turn the speed controller (5) in the PLUS direction to increase the speed of rotation and blow rate, or turn the speed controller in the MINUS direction to reduce the speed of rotation and blow rate. The most suitable speed of rotation and blow rate depend on the particular material and working conditions.

6.4 Rotation stop facility (Fig. 7)

For hammer drilling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position A.

For chiseling, press the button (E) on the rota- ry switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rota- ry switch (3) to position B. In switch position B the chisel is not locked.

For chiseling, press the button (E) on the rotary switch (3) and simultaneously turn the rotary switch (3) to position C. The chisel is locked in position C. Important. Only low pressure is required for hammer drilling. Excessive pressure will exert an unnecessary force on the motor. Check the drill bits at regular intervals. Sharpen or replace blunt drill bits.

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

8. Cleaning, maintenance and

ordering of spare parts Always pull out the mains power plug before star- ting any cleaning work.

Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.

We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.

Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could at- tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu- re that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician. Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.

There are no parts inside the equipment which require additional maintenance.

For EU countries only Never place any electric power tools in your household refuse. To comply with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning old electric and electronic equipment and its implementation in national laws, old electric power tools have to be separated from other waste and disposed of in an environment-friendly fashion, e.g. by taking to a recycling depot. Recycling alternative to the return request: As an alternative to returning the equipment to the manufacturer, the owner of the electrical equipment must make sure that the equipment is properly disposed of if he no longer wants to keep the equipment. The old equipment can be returned to a suitable collection point that will dispose of the equipment in accordance with the national recycling and waste disposal regulations. This does not apply to any ac- cessories or aids without electrical components supplied with the old equipment.
