General safety warnings

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, nonskid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may aff ect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories, tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations diff erent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Hammer safety warnings

• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing operations where the application tool or the screw could contact hidden wiring or its own power cord. Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
• Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to an explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.
• When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide a secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
• Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
• Your product is fitted with a BS 1363/A approved electric plug with an internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an authorized customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a main socket elsewhere. Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.

Preparation and adjustment

Turning the support handle
The support handle (7) can be rotated around the drill chuck to a position to suit – e.g. vertically under the machine, horizontal out to either side.
Changing bits
Insert the chuck key in one of the three holes on the side of the chuck (8), and turn to open.
Insert the desired bit in the chuck and turn the chuck key the opposite way until the chuck has a grip on the bit.
Check that the bit is in the center of the chuck and is secure.

Adjustment of depth guide
To drill several holes to the same depth, use the depth guide (9). Loosen the depth adjustment screw (10), set the guide to the required depth and tighten the screw again.
Drill/hammer drill selection
Select drill or impact drill using the toggle switch (6). Select impact drill for masonry, stone and cement. Select standard drill for wood, metals, marble, tiles, lime cement or man-made materials.
Selecting direction
Select direction (left (L) or right (R)) using the direction selector switch (5). The impact drill function can only be used when the switch is pushed to the right.
Setting drill speed
Drill speed is highly variable depending on how far the on/off switch (2) is depressed. The maximum speed can be set by turning the speed adjustment button (3). Turning it towards + increases speed, turning it towards – decreases speed.
Use
Fit a suitable bit for the job and adjust the depth guide again if required.
Select the appropriate speed on the speed adjustment button, select drill or hammer drill and check that the direction setting is correct.
Start the drill by pressing the on/off button. For continuous use over extended periods, the on/off button can be held down by pressing the lock button (1) in at the same time the on/off button is depressed. The lock button can be released by pressing the on/off button in as far as it will go.
Let the drill achieve full speed before applying it to the item or surface to be drilled.
Do not press the drill too hard. Select a slow drill speed for large bits or hard materials, and a faster speed for small bits or softer materials.
Stop the drill by releasing the on/off button.
Good tips for drilling
When drilling smooth surfaces, e.g. tiles, stick a piece of strong tape on the drill site before drilling to prevent the bit slipping.
Always punch the drill site when drilling steel. Place a piece of scrap wood under the item when drilling thin sheet metal to avoid deforming the sheet.
Lubricate the drill site with oil when drilling metal. Use machine oil for steel and paraffi n oil for aluminium.
To avoid splinters when drilling wood, place a piece of waste timber under the item, or drill from both sides
For large diameter holes, start with a small diameter drill and then use the desired diameter.
Cleaning and maintenance
Wipe the drill using a well-wrung cloth after use, and always keep the surface and ventilation holes (4) free of dirt.
Never use corrosive or abrasive detergents, as they may attack the plastic parts of the machine.
Replacing the carbon brushes
The hammer drill uses carbon brushes, which wear down. Therefore check them regularly and replace both of them when one or both are worn down to the wear limit, which is mm.
1. Disconnect the hammer drill from the mains. Remove the black plastic section (b). Take the hammer drill apart by unscrewing the screws in all the screw holes (a) and  emoving the top of the casing (c).
2. Lift out the brush holders (d) and remove the worn brushes (e). Insert a new brush in the brush holders and connect the cord with the copper plate (f ) to the spring. Replace the brush holders.
3. Replace the casing and the plastic section and check that the hammer drill is correctly assembled before using it again.
