InSTRUCTIOn FOR USE

Always observe the safety 

instructions and applicable 

regulations. Be aware of the 

location of pipe work and wiring. 

Apply only a gentle pressure to the 

tool (approx. 5Kg).

Excessive force does not speed 

up drilling but decreases tool 

performance and may shorten 

tool life. Do not drill or drive too 

deep to prevent damage to the 

dust cover.
