Changing the Tool

The dust protection cap 4 largely prevents the entry of drilling
dust into the tool holder during operation. When inserting the
tool, take care that the dust protection cap 4 is not damaged.
 A damaged dust protection cap should be changed im-
mediately. We recommend having this carried out by
an after-sales service.
Inserting SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure F)
The SDS-plus drill chuck allows for simple and convenient
changing of drilling tools without the use of additional tools.
– GBH 36 VF-LI: Insert the SDS-plus quick change chuck 2.
– Clean and lightly grease the shank end of the tool.
– Insert the tool in a twisting manner into the tool holder until
it latches itself.
– Check the latching by pulling the tool.
As a requirement of the system, the SDS-plus drilling tool can
move freely. This causes a certain radial run-out at no-load,
which has no effect on the accuracy of the drill hole, as the
drill bit centres itself upon drilling.
Removing SDS-plus Drilling Tools (see figure G)
– Push back the locking sleeve 5 and remove the tool.
Inserting Drilling Tools without SDS-plus (GBH 36 V-LI)

ened).

Dust Extraction with GDE 16 Plus (Accessory)
 Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable
for the material.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
