2. Setup and Assembly

2.1 Chisel Installation and Adjustment

To install a chisel, ensure the tool is unplugged. Insert the 5/8" Hex shank chisel into the tool-free chuck. The chisel bit will rotate and is inserted into the machine. It is normal for the chisel to move up and down slightly after installation, as this allows for the hammering action. This hammer does not feature a specific "chisel position adjustment" mechanism, but three different angles can be achieved by rotating the chisel within the chuck before locking it in place, allowing for versatile use.

2.2 Adjustable Handle

The auxiliary handle can be adjusted 360 degrees around the tool's body. Loosen the handle, rotate it to the desired position for optimal comfort and control, and then tighten it securely.
