NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the
ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly
from the actual capacity.
NOTE: The first (far left) indicator lamp will blink when
the battery protection system works.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
When the battery is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool automat-
ically stops without any indication. In this situation, turn
the tool off and stop the application that caused the tool
to become overloaded. Then turn the tool on to restart.
Overheat protection
When the tool or battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, let the tool and battery cool
before turning the tool on again.
NOTE: When the tool is overheated, the lamp blinks.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, remove the battery from the
tool and charge the battery.

switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool
speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch
trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
Speed change
The revolutions and blows per minute can be adjusted by turning the
adjusting dial. The dial is marked 1 (lowest speed) to 5 (full speed).
► Fig.4: 1. Adjusting dial
Refer to the table below for the relationship between the number
on the adjusting dial and the revolutions and blows per minute.

CAUTION:
Do not turn the adjusting dial when
the tool is running. Failure to do so may result in
the loss of control of the tool and cause an injury.
NOTICE:
If the tool is operated continuously at
low speed for a long time, the motor will get over-
loaded, resulting in tool malfunction.
NOTICE:
The speed adjusting dial can be turned
only as far as 5 and back to 1. Do not force it past
5 or 1, or the speed adjusting function may no
longer work.
NOTE: Soft no-load rotation function (For
DHR282/DHR283)
When the speed adjusting dial is set to "3" or higher, the
tool automatically reduces the speed at no-load to reduce
the vibration under no-load. Once operation starts with a
bit against concrete, blows per minute increase and reach
the numbers as shown in the table. When temperature is
low and there is less fluidity in grease, the tool may not
have this function even with the motor rotating.
This function is not available when the dust collection
system is installed.
Lighting up the front lamp
► Fig.5: 1. Lamp
CAUTION:
Do not look in the light or see the
source of light directly.
Pull the switch trigger to light up the lamp. The lamp
keeps on lighting while the switch trigger is being pulled.
The lamp goes out approximately 10 seconds after
releasing the switch trigger.
