Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
• There is a tremendous and sudden twisting
force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole
break-through, when the hole becomes clogged
with chips and particles, or when striking rein-
forcing rods embedded in the concrete.
First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the
arrow on the tool body points to the
adjusting ring can be aligned in any torque levels for
this operation.
Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped bit.
Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then
pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light pres-
sure gives best results. Keep the tool in position and
prevent it from slipping away from the hole.
Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes
clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at
an idle, then remove the bit partially from the hole. By
repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out
and normal drilling may be resumed.
Blow-out bulb (optional accessory)
► 1. Blow-out bulb
After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the
dust out of the hole.
Screwdriving operation
First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the
arrow on the tool body points to the
the adjusting ring to the proper torque level for your
work. Then proceed as follows.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then
increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger
as soon as the clutch cuts in.

Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained
with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide
screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the
workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting to make
a hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and
hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the
bit in the indentation and start drilling.

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.

CAUTION:
Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight
in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may
be damaged.
When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes
to make driving easier and to prevent splitting of
the workpiece. See the chart.

marking. Then proceed as follows.
CAUTION:
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed
up the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure
will only serve to damage the tip of your bit,
decrease the tool performance and shorten the
service life of the tool.
There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/
bit at the time of hole break through. Hold the
tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to
break through the workpiece.
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting
the reversing switch to reverse rotation in order
to back out. However, the tool may back out
abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or
with a similar hold-down device.
If the tool is operated continuously until the
battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool
to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with a
fresh battery.
