6.4 Power adjustment (Fig. 10)
A suitable speed, blow rate and impact energy
are selected by turning the power controller (8).
The constant electronics keeps the speed, blow
rate and impact energy constant regardless of
the load, thus ensuring smooth performance. The
following values are recommended.
Adjusting wheel A-B
Plaster / lightweight materials
Adjusting wheel C-D
Bricks / removing tiles
Adjusting wheel E-F
Drilling in concrete
Adjusting wheel G
Chiseling in concrete
The speed, blow rate and impact energy are in-
creased by turning the power controller (8) from A
to F. While this is happening, the power indicator
(10) will blink green. The highest power is set by
turning the power controller (8) into position G.
This setting is characterized by a higher impact
energy of up to 11 J. The power indicator (10) is
then lit green continuously.
Warning: Use of the highest power setting G is
recommended only for chiseling and for short
periods in hammer drilling mode. Working for long
periods in the highest setting will cause the user
to tire quickly and will subject the electric tool to
greater wear.
6.5 Brush wear / overload indicator
•
The brush wear / overload indicator (10) will
light up red if the equipment is overloaded.
Check the equipment settings. During chise-
ling work, the operating mode selector switch
(3) must be in the position „Hammer" (Fig. 8 /
Item A).
•
If the brush wear / overload indicator (10)
begins to flicker and the electric tool conti-
nues to work normally, you must change the
brushes. The brushes will be totally worn after
approx. 8 hours more work. The electric tool
will then turn off automatically and the indica-
tor will continue to flicker with a red light. For
information about changing the brushes, refer
to section 8.2 „Carbon brushes".
•
If the electric tool fails to work before the
8-hour warning period is over and the red
brush wear / overload indicator (10) flickers,

this means that the electric motor is probably
damaged.

7. Replacing the power cable

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
after-sales service or similarly trained personnel
to avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

8.2 Carbon brushes

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
8.3 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
