"VARIO-LOCK"
The Vario-Lock position is intended for use
with chipping bits such as bull points, spades,
gouges, etc. Choose a position which is best
suited for your operation.
Turn the mode selector dial, to the "vario-
lock" setting. Next, rotate the locking sleeve,
along with the accessory, to the desired
position. Then turn the mode selector dial to
the "hammer only" setting and slightly turn
the locking sleeve to have it automatically
lock into a definite position (Fig. 10).
SLIP CLUTCH
The tool has a internal pre-set slip clutch. The
output spindle will stop rotating if the accessory
binds and overloads the tool.
When the trigger is released it activates the
electrical brake to stop the chuck quickly. This
is especially useful in the repetitive driving and
removal of screws.
Electronic Precision Control (EPC)
EPC assists you when working with impact in
sensitive materials by ensuring slow start-up
and reduced operating speed.
Set Forward/Reversing lever to the center (off
position). Slide charged battery pack into the
housing until the battery pack locks into
position.
Your tool is equipped with a secondary locking
latch to prevent the battery pack from
completely falling out of the handle, should it
become loose due to vibration.
To remove the battery pack, press the battery
pack release button and slide the battery pack
completely out of tool housing (Fig. 12).

INSERTING AND RELEASING BATTERY PACK
Slide the EPC switch to the desired position:
Position for maximum operating
speed
Position for slow start-up and
reduced operating speed
KICKBACK CONTROL
The rapid shut-off feature enables better
control and improves user's comfort. The
power tool automatically shuts off in case of
sudden and unexpected rotation of the power
tool around the drilling axis (for example
jamming of the drill bit in reinforcing steel or
wedging application tool).To restart the
machine, release the On/Off switch and then
actuate again.
Kickack Control can activate only when the
power tool is running at maximum operating
speed and can rotate freely around the drill bit
axis.
