4. Operating Instructions
Selecting Operating Mode
The rotary hammer drill offers four functions, selected via the mode switch on the side of the tool.
Image Description: A visual guide to the four operating modes: Hammer Drilling (for concrete), Hammer (for chiseling), Drilling (for metal, wood, concrete), and Chisel Adjust (for angle adjustment). The central dial indicates the selected mode.
- Hammer Drilling: For drilling into concrete, masonry, and stone with impact.
- Hammer (Chiseling): For chiseling, chipping, and demolition work without rotation.
- Drilling: For drilling into wood, metal, plastic, and other materials without impact.
- Chisel Adjust (Vario-Lock): Allows the chisel bit to be rotated and locked into various positions for optimal working angles.
Speed Control and Reversing Switch
The tool features variable speed control and a reversing switch for enhanced versatility.
Image Description: This image highlights four operational features: the anti-dust cover for debris protection, the speed control dial for precise RPM adjustment, the reversing switch lever to change rotation direction, and the heat outlet for motor cooling.
Variable Speed Control:
The ON/OFF switch acts as a variable speed trigger. Pressing the switch further increases the speed. For continuous operation, press the ON/OFF switch and then engage the lock-on button.
Image Description: A close-up of the trigger, demonstrating the stepless speed control where pressure on the on/off switch varies the speed from minimum (MIN) to maximum (MAX).
Speed Control Dial:
Use the speed control dial to pre-set the maximum speed for specific applications. Once the speed is set, the tool will operate within that range when the trigger is fully depressed and the lock-on button is engaged.
Reversing Switch Lever:
The reversing switch lever changes the direction of rotation. Depress the lever for counter-clockwise rotation, and depress the opposite side for clockwise rotation. Always ensure the tool has come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.
Applications
This rotary hammer drill is suitable for a wide range of tasks, including:
- Drilling into concrete, brick, wood, and steel.
- Chiseling and light demolition of concrete and masonry.
