The following symbols are used in the user manual or on the product:

case of nonobservance of the instructions in this manual.
| Risk of electric shock.
| Immediately remove the mains plug from the mains if the mains cable becomes damaged during cleaning and maintenance.
| Always wear eye protection!
| Wear hearing protection.
| Wear safety gloves.
| Do not dispose of the product in unsuitable containers.
| Variable electronic speed.
| The product is in accordance with the applicable safety standards in the European directives.

Additional safety warnings for rotary hammers
a) Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
b) Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
c) 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.

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 voltage of the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate label.
---|---
| Class II machine – Double insulation – You don’t need any earthed plug.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Replacement of power cords or plugs
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

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 mm². Whenever using a reel extension lead,  always fully unroll the lead.

Immediately switch off the machine when:

• Excessive sparking of the carbon brushes.
• Interruption of the mains plug, mains lead, or mains leads to damage.
• Defect switch.
• Smoke or stench of scorched isolation.

Vibration level
The vibration emission level stated in this instruction manual has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN60745. 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.

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. It also may happen that the drill bit deforms and cannot be removed from the machine again.

Side handle
Fig. A
The side handle (6) 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 desired position.
• Retighten the handgrip in the new position by turning it clockwise.

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.

• SDS drills can be inserted by pushing the drill into the chuck until a click can be heard. If needed rotate the SDS drill a little to ensure the keyway in the bit fits the chuck well.
  DO NOT slide the locking sleeve (7) to the rear when inserting bets.

• To remove the SDS drill, slide the locking sleeve (7) to the rear and remove the SDS drill while keeping the sleeve (7) in this position.

Setting depth stops Fig. A

• The depth stop ruler can be added to the side handle by pushing the dept stop button (9).
•  Keep pushing the depth stop button (9) and insert the depth stop ruler (8) through the hole on the side handle ring.
•  Slide the ruler to the desired depth.
• Loosen the depth stop button (9).

The On/Off switch Fig. A

• Switch the machine on by pressing the On/Off switch (2). When releasing the On/Off switch (2) the machine will turn off.
• The rotation speed can be continuously adjusted by pressing the On/Off switch (2) deeper or less deep.

Lock-on button Fig. A

• Lock the On/Off switch (2) by pressing the On/Off switch (2) and then press the lock-on button (4).
• Release the switch-lock by shortly pressing the On/Off switch (2) again.

Switching the direction of rotation Fig. A.

• Direction of rotation counter-clockwise: shift left/right switch (1) to .
• The direction of rotation clockwise: shift left/right switch (1) to .
  This function is only available when the machine is set to “drill mode” (As shown in fig. D function A & B).

Function selection switch

 In order to avoid damage to the machine, adjusting the function selection switch (5) shall only be done when the machine is not running. Fig. C

Fig. D
The correct position of the function selection switch (5) for each function is shown in the pictures in fig. D. Always make sure the function switch clicks in the desired position.
A) Drilling (without hammer function): for drilling in several materials.
B) Hammer Drilling (with hammer function): for drilling in masonries such as brick, concrete, and similar material.
C) Chisel angle adjustment: for changing the angle of the chisel. When set under right angle switch back to position D. before using the tool.
D) Chipping (chisel function): for chipping and small demolition jobs.

User tips
Always use the machine with the side handle firmly anchored in place – you will not only work with more comfort, but you will also work with more precision.
Caution: drills and chisels can get very hot.

Drilling and hammer drilling (functions A and B)

• For large holes, for instance in very hard concrete, start using a smaller bit for pilot drilling first, then drill to nominal size.

• Hold the machine firmly with 2 hands. Be aware the drill can jam and because of that machine might suddenly turn (especially when drilling deep holes).

• Do not apply a lot of pressure on the machine, let the machine do the work.
  Chipping in concrete and brick (function C & D)

• It’s also possible to use the machine for chipping.

• Only change the function when the motor has come to a standstill.

• Do not apply a lot of pressure on the machine, let the machine do the work.

MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the machine and remove the main plug from the mains.
Clean the machine casings regularly with a soft cloth, preferably after each use. Make sure that the ventilation openings are free of dust and dirt. Remove very persistent dirt using a soft cloth moistened with soapsuds. Do not use any solvents such as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia, etc. Chemicals such as these will damage the synthetic components.

Defects
The machine should be regularly inspected for the following possible defects and repaired if necessary.

• Damage to the power cord.
• Broken on/off trigger assembly.
• Short-circuiting.
• Damaged moving parts.

Faults
Should a fault occur, e.g. after wearing of a part, please contact your seller or the service address on the warranty card. Separate you find an exploded view showing the parts that can be ordered.

WARRANTY

The warranty conditions can be found on the separately enclosed warranty card.

ENVIRONMENT

Faulty and/or discarded electrical or electronic apparatus have to be collected at the appropriate recycling locations.

Only EC countries
