BEFORE USE

INSERTING A DRILL BIT / CHISEL
The chuck clamps SDS+ drill bits and chisels without the need for a chuck key.

Pull back the collar.
Insert the bit
Turn the bit in the chuck until it latches.
Release the collar to lock in place.
Check by pulling the bit to see if it is locked in place.

IMPORTANT: Always clean the shaft of the drill bit before inserting it into the chuck.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow dust or debris inside the chuck as this will cause problems in the future.

REMOVING A BIT

Slide the collar to the rear and pull the bit out of the chuck.

CAUTION: WHEN REMOVING A BIT FROM THE DRILL, REMEMBER THAT IT MAY BE EXTREMELY HOT. EITHER ALLOW IT TO COOL DOWN FIRST OR USE INDUSTRIAL GLOVES TO REMOVE THE BIT.

USING THE DRILL CHUCK ADAPTOR (DRILL MODE ONLY)
When drilling with non-SDS+ drill bits, a 13mm chuck (supplied) can be inserted into the SDS+ chuck as shown. IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THE CHUCK ADAPTER IN HAMMER ACTION MODE.

POSITIONING THE FRONT HANDLE
The front handle can be positioned left, right, or center as required.

Loosen the handle by twisting it clockwise (when viewed from above).
Rotate the handle to the required position.
Secure the handle by twisting it anticlockwise (when viewed from above).

SELECTING THE OPERATING MODE

Mode	Hammer Action selector	Rotation selector
Drill Only	Drill Only	ON
Hammer Drill	Hammer Assisted Drilling	ON
Hammer only (no rotation)	Hammer Assisted Drilling	OFF

HAMMER ACTION SELECTOR

With the drill not operating, set the hammer action selector to the required setting.

Left – Hammer Assisted Drilling
Right – Drill Only

IMPORTANT: When using the “hammer action” you only need to apply light pressure. Too much pressure will place an unnecessary load on the motor. Check the drill bits regularly, re-sharpen, or replace if required.

ROTATION ON/OFF SELECTOR
Some jobs require the chuck to remain stationary yet still have the hammer effect, such as chiseling concrete, plaster, etc.

Set the rotation selector to the right for “no rotation”.
Set the rotation selector to the left for “normal rotation”.

USING THE DRILL

BEFORE STARTING WORK

Before drilling into walls and floors etc., check first that there are no hidden electrical cables, gas or water pipes, etc.
Check the mains voltage before plugging in and switching on.
Ensure the work area is as hazard-free as possible.

STARTING WORK

Select and install the bit to be used. See page 8.
If required, adjust the support handle attachment for the most comfortable position. See page 9.
|• For safety, always use the hammer drill with the front handle attached.
Set the required operating mode. See page 9.
When drilling vertically overhead, fit the rubber dust shield cup shown onto the drill bit.
Position the tool against the surface to be drilled and pull the trigger switch.
• If using the hammer action do not start the drill until the tool is in contact with the work surface.

STOPPING WORK

Release the trigger and wait until the bit has stopped before placing the drill on any surface

DRILLING TIPS

Always use sharp, good-quality drill bits. The performance of your drill is dependent on the quality of the bits used.
After drilling material to the full depth, do not simply pull out the drill but maintain chuck rotation to ease withdrawal.
Reduce the pressure on the drill bit when it is about to breakthrough. This will prevent the drill from jamming.
If drilling a large hole, first drill a pilot hole using a smaller drill bit.
Always apply pressure to your drill bit in a straight line and, where possible, at right angles to the workpiece.
When drilling in metal, the materials being drilled can become hot. To reduce overheating use a suitable cooling lubricant. No cooling lubricant is necessary when drilling cast iron or brass as they should be drilled dry.
When drilling metal, the harder the metal the slower the drill speed. Similarly, the bigger the drill bit the slower the speed.
To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting to drill a hole in metal, use a center punch to make an indentation at the start point.
Always start drilling at a slow speed to prevent the drill from slipping out of the top mark or indent, gradually increasing speed until the optimum cutting speed is achieved whilst maintaining a MODERATE pressure NEVER force the drill bit into the work. This will overheat the tip and cause it to dull very quickly.
When drilling in wood, clamp a piece of scrap wood to the underside of the material to avoid splintering.
Large holes should be drilled with wood augers, flat wood bits, or hole

DRILL BITS

A Wide choice of SDS+ and standard drill bits are readily available for this drill.
Please contact your local stockist or visit the Clarke website at: www.clarkeinternational.com

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING

After use, remove the drill bit and tap the side of the chuck to remove any dust or chippings, etc.
Keep the handle clean and free from oil and grease.
Worn or damaged parts must be replaced by qualified personnel.
Clean the tool regularly, use a soft brush and or soft cleaning cloth. DO NOT use any chemicals or harsh abrasives to clean the tool.
At the end of work, to prevent dust deposits you should use compressed air (max.3 bar) to clean out the ventilation holes.

GEARBOX GREASE

Check gearbox occasionally and top up if necessary with a good quality high melting point grease.

Remove the 4 hex bolts from the grease cover.
Remove the cover.
Apply sufficient grease to cover all visible moving parts.
• DO NOT overfill the gearbox.
Replace the cover and hex bolts before using the drill again.
