g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HAMMERS
Wear ear protectors with hammer drills (exposure to
●
noise can cause hearing loss)
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool (loss of
●
control can cause personal injury)
Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and
●
other elements in your workpiece; remove them before
you start working
Always keep the cord away from moving parts of the tool
●
When you put away the tool, switch off the motor and
●
ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete
standstill
Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a
●
capacity of 16 Amps (UK 13 Amps)
In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,
●
immediately switch off the tool and disconnect the plug
SKIL can assure flawless functioning of the tool only
●
when original accessories are used
Use only accessories with an allowable speed matching
●
at least the highest no-load speed of the tool
This tool should not be used by people under the age of
●
16 years
Be careful not to drill or drive into areas where electrical
●
wires may be contacted; always use auxiliary handle
G 2
Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos
●
is considered carcinogenic)
Take protective measures when during work dust
●
can develop that is harmful to one's health,
combustible or explosive (some dusts are considered
carcinogenic); wear a dust mask and work with dust/chip
extraction when connectable
If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do
●
not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug
Never use tool when cord is damaged; have it replaced
●
by a qualified person
Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the
●
voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools with
a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to a
220V supply)
If the drill bit becomes unexpectedly jammed (causing a
●
sudden, dangerous reaction), immediately switch off the
tool
Be aware of the forces that occur as a result of jamming
●
(especially when drilling metals); always use auxiliary
handle G 2 and take a secure stance
Always disconnect plug from power source before
●
making any adjustment or changing any accessory
WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):
Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire
●
in the cord of this tool to the earth terminal of the plug
If for any reason the old plug is cut off the cord of this
●
tool, it must be disposed of safely and not left
unattended

A Switch for on/off and speed control
B Wheel for maximum speed control
C Button for switch locking
D Lever for changing direction of rotation
E Switch for selecting operating mode
F Locking sleeve
G Auxiliary handle
USE
On/Off 3
●
Switch locking for continuous use 4
●
Speed control for smooth starting 5
●
Maximum speed control 6
●
With wheel B 2 the maximum speed can be adjusted
steplessly from minimum to maximum
Changing direction of rotation 7
●
- when not properly set in left/right position, switch A
cannot be activated
! change direction of rotation only when tool is at a
complete standstill
Selecting operating mode 8
●
1 = normal drilling/screwdriving
2 = hammer drilling
3 = chiseling
! select operating mode only when tool is switched
off
- for drilling in wood, metal and plastic as well as for
screwdriving the ring gear chuck and the
corresponding adapter should be used (see:
Application Advice)
- the hammer mechanism is activated by applying a
slight pressure on the tool when the drill bit is in
contact with the workpiece
- best hammer drilling results can be obtained by only
a slight pressure on the tool needed to keep the
automatic clutch engaged; drilling performance will
not improve by applying more pressure on the tool:
SKIL LETS THE TOOL WORK FOR YOU
Changing bits 9
●
- clean and lightly lubricate accessory before insertion
- pull back locking sleeve F and insert accessory in
SDS+ chuck while turning and pushing it until it
engages; the accessory locks in position
automatically
- pull accessory to check that it is locked correctly
- remove accessory by pulling back locking sleeve F
! the SDS+ accessory requires freedom of
movement which causes eccentricity when tool is
off-load; however, the accessory automatically
centres itself during operation without affecting
drilling precision
! do not use bits/chisels with a damaged shank
