Changing the Tool

With the SDS-max tool holder, simpler and eas-
ier tool changing is possible without additional
aids.
The dust protection cap 1 largely prevents the
entry of drilling dust into the tool holder during
operation. When inserting the tool, take care
that the dust protection cap 1 is not damaged.
A damaged dust protection cap should be
changed immediately. We recommend hav-
ing this carried out by an after-sales serv-
ice.
Inserting (see figure A)
– Clean and lightly grease the shank end of the
tool.
– Push back the locking sleeve 2 and insert the
tool in a twisting manner into the tool holder.
Release the locking sleeve 2 again in order to
lock the tool.
– Check the latching by pulling the tool.
Removing (see figure B)
– Push back the locking sleeve 2 and remove
the tool.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal
can be harmful to one's health. Touching or
breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic reac-
tions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the
user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in con-
nection with wood-treatment additives (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working
place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class
respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be worked.

Operation

Starting Operation

Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
Setting the Operating Mode
The operating mode of the power tool is select-
ed with the mode selector switch 3.
Note: Change the operating mode only when the
machine is switched off! Otherwise, the ma-
chine can be damaged.
– Turn the mode selector switch 3 to the re-
quested position.
Position for hammer drilling in
concrete or stone
When the drilling tool does not im-
mediately rotate upon switching
on, allow the machine to run slowly
until the drilling tool rotates.
Vario-Lock position for adjustment
of the chiselling position
Position for chiselling
Switching On and Off
– To start the machine, press the On/Off
switch 4 and keep it pressed.
– To switch off the machine, release the
On/Off switch 4.
For low temperatures, the machine reaches the
full hammer/impact capacity only after a certain
time.
This start-up time can be shortened by striking
the inserted tool insert against the floor one
time.
