OPERATION

OPERATING MODES

WARNING! ENSURE THE DRILL IS NO LONGER ROTATING AND HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE MODES.

Changing Modes
The operating modes are controlled by changing the positions of the side and rear mode dials.
Note: To adjust the side mode dial, press the locking button while rotating the mode dial to the desired setting.

Drilling
Use this setting when you want the accessory to rotate without hammer action. Ideal for drilling into timber or steel when correct accessories for such materials are used. Rotate the side mode selector to the hammer/drill icon and the rear mode lever to the drill icon.

Hammer Drilling
Use this setting when drilling holes in concrete and other masonry products. The hammer action will be in operation while the drill bit rotates. Rotate the side mode selector to the hammer/drill icon and the rear mode lever to the hammer drill icon.|

Chiselling
Use this when you want the hammer action without the drill action which is ideal for “chiselling or chipping” away at masonry products. Pick or chisel accessory bits should be used. Rotate the mode selector to the chisel icon and the rear mode lever to the hammer drill icon.

USING THE HAMMER DRILL

On/Off Trigger

To start the tool, squeeze the on/off trigger.
Note: The further you press the on/off trigger, the fast the tool will operate.
To stop the tool, release the on/off trigger.

Using The Hammer Drill

Depress and release the trigger to ensure it is not locked on.
Ensure the workpiece is clamped and secured where possible.
Hold the drill firmly in the position you want to drill
Start the tool and move the tool into the workpiece.
Note: Do not force the drill or apply side pressure. Let the tool do all the work.
To drill to a pre-determined depth, adjust the depth rod so that the drill bit protrudes past by the depth of the hole required.
Then drill as normal until the depth rod touches the surface of the workpiece.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING! BEFORE CLEANING THE APPLIANCE OR CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE, MAKE SURE THAT IT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL STARTING.

Cleaning

We recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after you use it.
Keep the safety devices free of dirt and dust as much as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth.
Clean the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in the appliance. Ensure that no water can get into the interior of the appliance.

Gear Box Grease Replenishment

WARNING! WEAR GLOVES WHEN HANDLING GREASE.
The grease in the gearbox will require replenishment after approximately 50 hours accumulative use. After this time, add approximately 50 grams (approximately 2 – 3 teaspoons) of the grease (supplied), into the gearbox. First remove the grease cap from the drill by using the pin spanner. Once removed, add the grease through this hole. Ensure the grease cap is secured back into position prior to operation. If additional grease is required, please contact Ozito Customer Service.

Carbon Brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the drill will spark and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens. They should be replaced prior to recommencing use of the drill. Carbon brushes are a wearing component of the drill therefore not covered under warranty. Continuing to use the drill when carbon brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent damage to the drill. Carbon brushes will wear out after many uses but when the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the drill to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.

Storage
Pull the mains plug out of the socket, switch off the tool and make sure that it is secured in such a way that it cannot be started up again by any unauthorised person. Store the tool in a dry location which is not accessible to unauthorized persons.

Supply Cords
If replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by a certified electrician in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the repair of the tool by an unauthorized person or by mishandling of the tool.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

WARNING! When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury and material damage.
Read the whole manual carefully and make sure you know how to switch the tool off in an emergency, before operating the tool. Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for future reference.
This tool has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Note: The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for Australia and New Zealand. This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required.
Note: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Using an Extension Lead
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing. Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
The power supply for this product should be protected by a residual current device (rated at 30mA or less). A residual current device reduces the risk of electric shock.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING! 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 the 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 or 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.
3. 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 mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, 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 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 jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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.
- Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4. 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 affect 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 and 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 different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
- Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. 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.

ROTARY HAMMER DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS

The appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
WARNING! Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

Wear ear protectors when impact drilling Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces a high output torque and without properly bracing the tool during operation, loss of control may occur resulting in 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 could give the operator an electric shock.
Before drilling into walls, ceilings etc, ensure that there are no concealed power cables or pipes in the cavity.
Keep the cord clear of the drill accessory, do not wrap the cord around your arm or wrist.
Prolonged use of a tool can cause injuries. Ensure you take regular breaks when using any tool for prolonged periods.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the exposure time by taking frequent breaks.
Vibration caused by the hammer action may be harmful to your hands and arms.
Do not use the tool while on an unstable surface.
Handling grease
- Avoid contact with eyes. When exposure is likely wear suitable eye protection.
- Wear gloves of impervious material if handling material for prolonged periods.
- Avoid breathing vapors or mists and use in well ventilated area.
  Contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone 131126 from anywhere in Australia or 0800 764 766 in New Zealand.

Safety instructions when using long drill bits

Never operate at higher speed than the maximum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints,
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber.
Asbestos-containing materials (Asbestos cement sheeting, fences, walls etc.

Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
