Instructions for Use
Preparation:
Check the drill for damage (cracks, chips on the cutting edge).
Clean the working surface of the material from dirt and dust.
Secure the workpiece if necessary to prevent shifting.
Installation:
Insert the drill into the hammer/drill chuck with the SDS-Plus shank, ensuring secure fastening.
Ensure the hammer/drill is set to the drilling mode with impact.
Operation:
Mark the drilling spot.
Apply moderate pressure, allowing the drill to work with the hammer’s impact.
Periodically pull out the drill to remove dust and debris.
For prolonged drilling, use a lubricating-cooling liquid (e.g., water) to reduce heat.
Cleaning and Storage:
After use, clean the drill of dust and construction debris with a dry cloth or brush.
Store in a dry place at temperatures from -10°C to +50°C, in protective packaging.
Safety Precautions:
Work in safety goggles and gloves to protect against dust and debris.
Do not use the drill for materials not matching its purpose (e.g., metal).
Avoid excessive pressure to prevent damage to the drill or hammer/drill.
Store out of reach of children.
