Operation
Working advice
Never use the dust extraction attachment without a
u
filter. If the dust extraction attachment is used without a
filter, larger particles of drilling dust can be flung towards
the user and the power tool can be damaged.
Do not use damaged filters (e.g. no cracks, small
u
holes, etc.). Replace any damaged filters immedi-
ately.
Never carry the power tool by the dust extraction at-
u
tachment.
During operation, hold the power tool with fitted dust
u
extraction attachment not on the dust extraction at-
tachment, but always on the handle and auxiliary
handle of the power tool.
Note: The guide (4) is spring-loaded. The guide can spring
forward when the button (5) for drill bit length adjustment is
pressed.
Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and make
u
sure you have a stable footing. The power tool is more
securely guided with both hands.
