This annotated image highlights essential components such as the metal chuck, comfortable main handle, pure copper motor housing, cooling system vents, and the mechanical adjustment for speed or mode selection.

1. Metal Chuck: For securely holding SDS-Plus bits.
2. Auxiliary Handle: Provides additional grip and control.
3. Mode Selector Switch: To select between drilling and hammering functions.
4. Main Handle: Ergonomically designed for comfortable grip.
5. Trigger Switch: Activates the tool.
6. Cooling System Vents: Ensures proper motor cooling during operation.
7. Depth Gauge: For precise drilling depth control (not explicitly shown but implied by typical rotary hammer features).

5. Setup and Assembly

5.1 Attaching the Auxiliary Handle

The auxiliary handle can be rotated 360° to suit various working positions. Loosen the handle grip, slide it onto the tool, adjust to the desired position, and tighten securely.

5.2 Inserting SDS-Plus Bits

1. Clean the shank of the SDS-Plus bit and apply a small amount of grease to it.
2. Pull back the chuck sleeve and insert the bit into the chuck.
3. Rotate the bit slightly until it engages with the locking mechanism.
4. Release the chuck sleeve. Pull the bit to ensure it is securely locked. A slight axial play is normal for SDS-Plus systems.

5.3 Removing SDS-Plus Bits

1. Pull back the chuck sleeve completely.
2. Remove the bit from the chuck.

6. Operating Modes

The Ingco RH10506 Rotary Hammer features a mode selector switch to choose between different operating functions:

Figure 3: Mode selector switch for two functions.

This diagram illustrates the mode selector switch, allowing users to choose between the electric hammer mode for drilling and the hammer mode for chiseling and demolition tasks.

• Electric Hammer Mode (Drill with Hammer Action): This mode combines rotation with hammering action, ideal for drilling into concrete, stone, and masonry.
• Hammer Mode (Chiseling/Demolition): This mode provides hammering action without rotation, suitable for chiseling, breaking, and demolition work.

To change modes, rotate the mode selector switch to the desired icon. Ensure the tool is unplugged before changing modes to prevent accidental activation.

7. Operation

7.1 Before Starting

• Ensure the correct bit is installed for the task.
• Select the appropriate operating mode.
• Adjust the auxiliary handle for comfortable and secure grip.
• Set the depth gauge if a specific drilling depth is required.

7.2 Using the Rotary Hammer

1. Plug the tool into a suitable power outlet (240 Volts AC).
2. Hold the tool firmly with both hands, using the main handle and the auxiliary handle.
3. Position the bit on the workpiece.
4. Press the trigger switch to start the tool. Apply steady, even pressure. Do not force the tool.
5. When finished, release the trigger switch and wait for the bit to stop rotating before setting the tool down.

Safety Clutch: The tool is equipped with a safety clutch designed to protect the user's wrist if the drill bit jams. If the bit jams, the clutch will disengage the drive, preventing sudden torque reaction. Immediately release the trigger switch if this occurs.

8. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your Ingco RH10506 Rotary Hammer. Always disconnect the tool from the power supply before performing any maintenance.

8.1 Cleaning

• Keep the ventilation openings clean to prevent motor overheating.
• Regularly clean the tool housing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Clean the chuck regularly to ensure smooth bit insertion and removal.

8.2 Lubrication

Apply a small amount of grease to the SDS-Plus bit shanks before insertion to reduce wear and improve performance.

8.3 Carbon Brush Replacement

The carbon brushes are wear parts and will need replacement over time. When the motor performance decreases or the tool stops working, the carbon brushes may need to be replaced. This should ideally be performed by a qualified service technician. Refer to the included replaceable carbon brush set.
