Before drilling into walls, ceilings etc, ensure that there are no concealed power cables
or pipes in the cavity.
Always use the side handle. This gives you greater control if the drill accessory should
become jammed.
Keep the cord clear of the drill accessory. Do not wrap the cord around your arm or wrist.
•
Wear ear protectors with impact drills.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause
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
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.
BEFORE ATTACHING OR REMOVING ANY ACCESSORIES BE SURE TO
DISCONNECT THE HAMMER DRILL FROM THE POWER SUPPLY
Attaching the Side Handle
The side handle will provide additional control, support and guidance for the drill.
The handle is adjustable to any position around the 360º handle collar mount.
Loosen the handle grip by rotating it anti clockwise to the handle collar. Slide the collar of
the handle over the chuck and onto the handle collar mount of the drill. Fasten and
secure the handle grip back to the handle collar by turning the handle grip clockwise.
Adjusting the Depth Rod
Loosen the side handle by turning it anti clockwise. Adjust the depth rod so that the
drill bit extends beyond the end of the rod to the required drilling depth. Tighten the
side handle by turning it clockwise.
