Adjusting the Side Handle Position

1. Loosen the side handle by unscrewing the side

handle grip until the side handle rotates freely.

2. Rotate the side handle to the desired position.

3. Tighten the side handle grip securely.
Setting the Depth Gauge

1. Press in the clamping lever.

2. Slide the depth gauge rod backward or forward

until it is set for the desired depth.

NOTE: The drilling depth is the distance between

the tip of the bit and the tip of the rod.

3. Release the clamping lever.

Installing Drill Bits and Chisels

Only use accessories with SDS or SDS Plus shanks.

Be sure that the shank of the bit is clean. Dirt par-

ticles may cause the bit to line up improperly. Do not

use bits larger than the maximum recommended

capacity of the drill because gear damage or mo-

tor overloading may result. For best performance,

be sure that the bit is properly sharpened and the

shank is lightly greased before use.

1. Insert the bit or chisel into the nose of the tool.

2. Rotate bit slowly until it aligns with the locking

mechanism.

3. Push bit into tool until it locks.

4. Check that the bit is locked properly; it should

be possible to pull the bit back and forth slightly

(about 1/4").

5. To remove bits and chisels,

pull bit holder release collar

toward the rear of tool and

remove bit.

NOTE: Use caution when

handling hot bits and chis-

els.
