Hammering only with spindle lock:
impacting only - for light chipping,
chiselling and demolition applications.

different positions (also refer to fig. D2):
• Turn the option lever (4) so that it points
upwards.
• Turn the cutter to the desired position.
• Rotate the mode selector (4) until it points to
the
-symbol.
• In this mode the Rotary Hammer can also be
used as a lever to free a jammed drill bit.
• Turn the cutter till it snaps in its position.
Inserting and removing SDS-max
accessories (fig. C1 & C2)
These models use SDS-max
(refer to the inset in fig. C2 for a cross-section of
®
an SDS-max
bit shank).
• Unplug the tool.
• Insert the bit shank into the tool holder locking
sleeve (6) and turn the bit slightly until the
sleeve snaps in position.
• Pull on the bit to check if it is properly locked.
The hammering function requires the bit to be
able to move axially several centimetres when
locked in the tool holder.
• To remove a bit pull back the tool holder locking
sleeve (6) and pull the bit out of the tool holder.
Assembling and fitting the side handle (fig.
E1-E4)
The side handle (8) can be mounted in front or in
rear position on either side of the Rotary Hammer to
suit both RH- and LH-users.
Always operate the Rotary Hammer with
the side handle properly assembled.
Mounting in front position (fig. E1 & E2)
• Snap the steel ring (16) over the collar (7)
behind the tool holder (6). Squeeze both ends
together, mount the bush (14) and insert the
pin (15).
• Place the side handle clamp (13) and screw
on the clamp wheel (9). Do not tighten.
• Screw the side handle (8) into the clamp wheel
and tighten it.

drill bits and chisels
• Rotate the side handle mounting assembly to
the desired position. For drilling horizontally
with a heavy drill bit, place the side handle at
an angle of approx. 20° (refer to fig. E2) for
optimum control.
• Lock the side handle mounting assembly in
place by tightening the clamp wheel (9).
Mounting in rear position (fig. E3 & E4)
The rear position is particularly useful when drilling
overhead or down into a floor. Refer to fig. D4.
• Unscrew the side handle (8) and remove it from
the front position. Leave the side handle
mounting assembly in front position so that the
depth adjustment rod can still be used.
• Screw the side handle directly into one of the rear
side handle positions (10) on either side of the tool.
Setting the drilling depth (fig. F)
• Insert the required drill bit.
• Loosen the clamp nut (17) and fit the depth
adjustment rod (11) through the hole in the
side handle clamp.
• Push the drill bit into a surface at a right angle
and adjust the depth adjustment rod (11) as
shown.
• Tighten the clamp nut (17).
Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Be aware of the location of pipework and
wiring.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool
(approx. 20 kg). Excessive force does
not speed up drilling or chiselling but
decreases tool performance and may
shorten tool life.
Drilling with a solid bit (fig. A)
• Set the electronic speed and impact control dial
(2).
• Set the mode selector lever (4) to the
„hammer drilling" position.
• Insert the appropriate drill bit.
• Fit and adjust the side handle (8).
• If necessary, set the drilling depth.
