accordance with EN 60745.
Hammer drilling in concrete
Vibration emission value ah = 12.889 m/s2
K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s2
Chiseling
Vibration emission value ah = 15.939 m/s2
K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s2
Important!
The vibration value changes according to the area of application of the
electric tool and may exceed the specified value in exceptional circumstances.
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.
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
tighten the clamp. 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.
Depth stop (Fig. 3 – Item 7)
The depth stop (7) is held in place with the locking 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) touches the workpiece.
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.
Tool removal (Fig. 5)
Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (2) and remove the tool.
Dust collection device (Fig. 6)
Slide the dust collection device (9) over the drill bit before carrying out
any hammer drilling vertically above your head.
Starting up
Important.
To prevent all danger, the machine must only be held using the two handles (6
/ 11). Otherwise there may be a risk of suffering an electric shock if you
drill into cables.
Switching on and off (Fig. 1)
To switch on:
Press the control switch (4).
To switch off:
Release the control switch (4).
Hammer stop facility (Fig. 7)
The hammer drill has a hammer stop facility for gentle initial drilling.
- Turn the rotary switch for the hammer stop facility (5) to position (B) to switch off the hammer facility.
- To switch on the hammer facility again the rotary switch for the hammer stop facility (5) must be turned back to position (A).
Rotation stop facility (Fig. 8 / 9) The rotation function of the hammer drill can be switched off for chiseling jobs.
- To do this, press the button (C) on the rotary switch (3) whilst at the same time turning the rotary switch (3) into position A (see Fig. 8).
- To switch on the rotation facility again, press button (C) on the rotary switch (3) whilst at the same time turning the rotary switch (3) into position B (see Fig. 9).
Important.
Please note that it is not possible to operate the hammer drill with the
hammer stop and rotation stop facilities both active at the same time.
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.
