OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. 

Adjust the Selector Knob (part #37) to either the Drill only, Hammer only, or  

 

 

Drill/Hammer mode.  Adjust the RPM Selector Knob on the Power Switch

 

(part #51) to the desired speed.  If drilling/hammering overhead, attach the Dust    

 

Cup (part #74) to the front portion of the tool’s Housing (parts #40, #53).  

2. 

Whenever possible, secure the workpiece in place, using a vise or clamps (not 
included).

.

3. 

Mark the center of the hole to be drilled/hammered with a center punch to give    

 

the Bit/Chisel (parts #66 thru #70) a start and to prevent it from “walking”.  Also,

 

lubricate the Bit with cutting oil when drilling iron or steel.  Use a coolant when 
drilling nonferrous metals such as copper, brass, or aluminum.

4. 

Plug the Power Cord (part #47) into the nearest 110 Volt AC electrical outlet.

5. 

Make sure to hold the Industrial Rotary Hammer firmly with both hands while 
turning it 

ON

, as torque from the Motor will cause the tool to twist.

6. 

Drill/hammer only as deep as necessary.  Do not drill/hammer deeper than 
necessary into walls or other areas where you cannot identify any possible 
hazards behind the drilling/hammering surface.

7. 

To reduce jamming as the Bit/Chisel (parts #66 thru #70) breaks through the 
workpiece, decrease the drilling pressure when the point of the Bit/Chisel breaks 
through the workpiece.  When you have drilled/hammered the hole, remove the 
Bit/Chisel (parts #66 thru #70) from the hole while the Industrial Rotary Hammer 
is still running.  This prevents the Bit/Chisel from getting caught in the hole and 
causing damage.

8. 

Release the Power Switch (part #51) to stop the Industrial Rotary Hammer.  
Then, unplug the Power Cord (part #47) from its electrical outlet.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

1.

 

CAUTION: Always unplug the Industrial Rotary Hammer from its 110 volt electrical 
outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning.

2. 

BEFORE EACH USE,

 inspect the general condition of the Industrial Rotary Hammer.  

Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken 
parts, damaged electrical wiring, cracked or broken Masonry Bits and Chisels, and any 
other condition that may affect its safe operation.  If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, 
have the problem corrected before further use.  

Do not use damaged equipment.

3. 

DAILY:

 With a soft brush, cloth, or vacuum, remove all debris from the Industrial Rotary

 

Hammer.
