Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
trigger switch. The tool speed can be
controlled from the minimum to the maximum
nameplate RPM by the pressure you apply to
the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase
the speed and release pressure to decrease
speed. This accurate speed control enables
you to drill without center punching. It also
permits you to use as a power screwdriver.
Bits are available for driving screws as well
as running bolts and nuts.
!
This tool is equipped with a rotating brush
reversing system. This results in longer brush
life while maximizing power in both forward and
re verse directions. The reverse switch can be
oper ated from either the right or left side of the
tool (Fig. 1).
FOR FORWARD ROTATION: slide switch to
arrow marked forward.
FOR REVERSE RO TATION: slide the slide
switch to arrow marked re verse. NOTE: Tool
will not operate in middle position.
The tool has an internal preset clutch. The
clutch is set such that sufficient force is
transmitted to the bit for most drilling
conditions but it will slip when bit binds in the
hole or the tool is overloaded. Be aware that
due to required clutch setting, you may
experience a torque reaction an instant
before the clutch slips. This torque reaction
will twist the body of the rotary hammer in the
opposite direction as the bit rotates, i.e.,
counterclockwise. As clutch is slipping, the
bit will most likely stop rotating. When the
binding force on the bit is removed the clutch
automatically resets. If you experience bit
binding and clutch begins to slip, immediately
turn the tool "OFF" and correct the condition
leading to the bit binding.
Your drilling depth can be pre-set and/or
repeated by using the depth gauge.
Setting depth: After the auxiliary handle is
installed, make sure the accessory has been
fully inserted into the tool holder before setting
the depth gauge.
To adjust depth, push the depth gauge release
button, slide the depth gauge to desired depth
and release pressure on button to lock the
d
epth gauge in place(Fig. 5).

be set in any one of 40 (9˚ increments)
positions. Choose a position which is best
suited for your operation.
Depress release button and turn the selector
dial, to the “vario-lock” setting. Next, rotate
the locking sleeve, along with the accessory,
to the desired position. Then turn the selector
dial to the “hammer only” setting and slightly
turn the locking sleeve to have it
automatically lock into a definite position.

Following a few simple tips will reduce wear on
the tool and the chance of injury to the
operator.
The high efficiency available from the
rotary hammers can only be obtained if sharp
and undamaged accessories are used. The
“cost” to maintain sharp and undamaged
accessories is more than offset by the “time
saved” in operating the tool with sharp
accessories.
All hammers require a short period of time to
warm up. Depending on the room temperature,
this time may vary from approximately 15
seconds (90˚F) to 2 minutes (32˚F).
A new hammer requires a break-in period
before full performance is realized. This period
may require up to 5 hours of operation.
You will extend the life of your bits and do
neater work if you always put the bit in contact
with the workpiece BEFORE pulling the trigger.
During operation, hold the drill firmly and exert
moderate, steady pressure. Too much
pressure at low speed will stall the hammer.
Too little pressure will keep the bit from cutting
and cause excess friction by sliding over the
surface. This can be damaging to the drill and
bit.

1. All work must be supported or secured
before drilling and steady, even pressure
applied in line with the drill bit.
2
. As the drill bit cuts through the opposite
side, reduce the pressure and continue
running the drill as the bit is withdrawn.
3. Some materials require slow drilling
speeds; whereas, others require higher speed
to produce the best results. Materials such as
glass, porcelain, ceramics, tiles, plastics, etc.,
should be drilled at low speeds with specially
designed drill bits and lubricants.
!
6-00320=13()
If backing block is not used, ease up on the
pressure just before the bit breaks through the
wood to avoid splintering. Complete the hole
from the opposite side immediately after the
point breaks through. If bit binds, reverse the
drilling operation to help remove the bit from
the work.
6-00320=13()
There are two rules for drilling hard materials.
First, the harder the material, the greater the
pres sure you need to apply to the tool.
Second, the harder the material, the slower the
speed. Here are a couple of tips for drilling in
metal. Make a center punch in the material for
easier starting. Lubri cate the tip of the bit
occasionally with cutting oil except when
drilling soft metals such as alu minum, cop per
or cast iron. If the hole to be drilled is fairly
large, drill a smaller hole first, then enlarge to
the required size, it’s often faster in the long
run. Main tain enough pressure to assure that
the bit does not just spin in the hole. This will
dull the bit and greatly shorten its life.
#
Use carbide-tipped masonry bit for cinder
block, mortar, common brick, soft stone and
other materials. The amount of pressure to be
used is dependent upon the type of material
being drilled. Soft materials require less
pressure while the hard materials need more
pressure to prevent the drill bit from spinning.
