NOTE:
Pay attention to the spring orientation. Install the
spring with larger diameter away from you. (Fig.
12)
(3) Using as an auxiliary light
(a) Press the switch to turn off the light.
If forgotten, the light will turn off automatically
after 15 minutes.
(b) The direction of the light can be adjusted within
the range of hook positions 1 - 5. (Fig. 13)
Lighting time
AAAA manganese batteries: approx. 15 hrs.
AAAA alkali batteries: approx. 30 hrs.
CAUTION:
Do not look directly into the light.
Such actions could result in eye injury.
(4) Replacing the batteries
(a) Loosen the hook screw with a phillips-head
screwdriver (No. 1). (Fig. 14)
Remove the hook cover by pushing in the
direction of the arrow. (Fig. 15)
(b) Remove the old batteries and insert the new
batteries. Align with the hook indications and
position the plus (+) and minus (–) terminals
correctly. (Fig. 16)
(c) Align the indentation in the hook main body
with the protuberance of the hook cover, press
the hook cover in the direction opposite to that
of the arrow shown in Fig. 15 and then tighten
the screw.
Use commercially available AAAA batteries
(1.5 V).
NOTE:
Do not tighten the screw excessively. Such action
could strip the screw threads.
CAUTION:
Failure to observe the following can result in battery
leakage, rust or malfunction.
Position the plus (+) and minus (–) terminals
correctly.
Replace both batteries at the same time. Do not mix
old and new batteries.
Remove exhausted batteries from the hook
immediately.
Do not discard batteries together with normal trash
and do not throw batteries into fire.
Store batteries out of the reach of children.
Use batteries correctly in accordance with the battery
specifications and indications.
2. Switch operation
When the switch trigger is depressed, the tool
rotates. When the switch trigger is released, the tool
stops.
The rotational speed of the rotary hammer can be
controlled by varying the amount that the switch
trigger is pulled. Speed is low when the switch
trigger is pulled slightly and increases as the switch
trigger is pulled more.
When releasing the switch trigger, the brake will
be applied for immediate stopping.
3. Rotation + Hammering
Turn the change lever fully in the direction of the
" " mark to set "rotation + hammering".
(1) Mount the drill bit.
(2) Pull the trigger switch after applying the drill bit
tip to the drilling position. (Fig. 17)
17
(3) Pushing the rotary hammer forcibly is not necessary
at all. Pushing slightly so that drill dust comes out
gradually is just sufficient.
CAUTION:
When the drill bit touches construction iron bar, the
bit will stop immediately and the rotary hammer
will react to revolve. Therefore please grip the side
handle and handle tightly as shown in Fig. 18.
4. Rotation only
Turn the change lever fully in the direction of the
" " mark to set "rotation only". (Fig. 17)
To drill a wood or metal material using the optional
drill chuck and chuck adapter, proceed as follows.
Installing drill chuck and chuck adapter: (Fig. 19)
(1) Attach the drill chuck to the chuck adaptor.
(2) The part of the SDS-plus shank is the same as the
drill bit. Therefore, refer to the item of "Mounting
the drill bit" for attaching it.
CAUTION:
Application of force more than necessary will
not only expedite work at all, but will deteriorate
the tip edge of the drill bit and reduce the
service life of the rotary hammer in addition.
Drill bit may snap off while withdrawing the
rotary hammer from the drilled hole. For
withdrawing, it is important to use a pushing
motion.
Do not attempt to use the rotary hammer in the
rotation and striking mode with the drill chuck
and chuck adapter attached. This would seriously
shorten the service life of every component of
the machine.
5. When driving wood screws (Fig. 20)
(1) Selecting a suitable driver bit
Employ plus-head screws, if possible, since the driver
bit easily slips off the heads of slotted-head screws.
(2) Tightening wood screws
Prior to tightening wood screws, make pilot holes
suitable for them in the wooden board. Apply the
bit to the screw head grooves and gently drive the
screws in the holes.
CAUTION:
Exercise care in preparing a pilot hole suitable for
the wood screw taking the hardness of the wood
into consideration. Should the hole be excessively
small or shallow, requiring much power to drive
the screw into it, the thread of the wood screw may
sometimes be damaged.
6. Using depth gauge (Fig. 21)
(1) Loosen the knob on the side handle, and insert the
depth gauge into the mounting hole on the side
handle.
(2) Adjust the depth gauge position according to the
depth of the hole and tighten the knob bolt securely.
7. How to use the drill bit (taper shank) and the taper
shank adapter
(1) Mount the taper shank adapter to the rotary hammer.
(Fig. 22)
(2) Mount the drill bit (taper shank) to the taper shank
adapter. (Fig. 22)
(3) Turn the switch ON, and drill a hole to prescribed
depth.
(4) To remove the drill bit (taper shank), insert the
cotter into the slot of the taper shank adapter and
strike the head of the cotter with a hammer
supporting on the rest. (Fig. 23)
