5. To minimize stalling or breaking through the
material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the
bit through the last fractional part of the hole.
6. Keep the motor running when pulling the bit
back out of a drilled hole. This will help prevent
jamming.
7. With variable speed drills there is no need to
center punch the point to be drilled. Use a
slow speed to start the hole and accelerate by
squeezing the trigger harder when the hole is
deep enough to drill without the bit skipping
out.
DRILLING IN METAL
An SDS Plus
®
to round shank adapter chuck is
required. Ensure that tool is in drill-only mode. Start
drilling with slow speed and increase to full power
while applying firm pressure on the tool. A smooth
even flow of metal chips indicates the proper drilling
rate. Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals.
The exceptions are cast iron and brass which should
be drilled dry.
NOTE: Large [7.9 mm to 12.7 mm (5/16" to 1/2")]
holes in steel can be made easier if a pilot hole
[4 mm to 4.8 mm (5/32" to 3/16")] is drilled first.
DRILLING IN WOOD
An SDS Plus
to round shank adapter chuck is
®
required. Ensure that tool is in drill-only mode. Start
drilling with slow speed and increase to full power
while applying firm pressure on the tool. Holes in
wood can be made with the same twist drills used
for metal. These bits may overheat unless pulled out
frequently to clear chips from the flutes. For larger
holes, use spade bits, power auger bits, or hole
saws. Work that is apt to splinter should be backed
up with a block of wood.
Screwdriving (fig. 1)
1. Set the mode selector switch (g) to the rotary
drilling position.
2. Select the direction of rotation.
3. Insert the special SDS Plus
adaptor for use with hexagonal screwdriver bits.
4. Insert the appropriate screwdriver bit. When
driving slotted head screws always use bits with
a finder sleeve.
5. Gently press the variable speed switch (a) to
prevent damage to the screw head. In reverse
(LH) rotation the tool speed is automatically
reduced for easy screw removal.
6. When the screw is flush with the workpiece,
release the variable speed switch to prevent
the screw head from penetrating into the
workpiece.

WARNING:
• The hammer is only for light chiselling
applications.
• The forward/reverse switch must be in
the forward position when chiselling
