6.5 Tips for working with your hammer drill
6.5.1 Drilling concrete and masonry
n Switch the Drill/Hammer drill selector switch (3)
to position B (Hammer drill).
n Always use carbide drill bits and a high speed
setting for drilling into masonry and concrete.
6.5.2 Drilling steel
n Switch the drill / hammer drill selector switch (3)
to position A (drill).
n Always use HSS drill bits (HSS = high speed
steel) and a low speed setting for drilling steel.
n We recommend that you lubricate the hole with a
suitable cutting fluid to prevent unnecessary drill
bit wear.
6.5.3 Starting holes
If you wish to drill a deep hole in a hard material
(such as steel), we recommend that you start the
hole with a smaller drill bit.
6.5.4 Drilling tiles
n To start the hole, switch the drill / hammer drill
selector switch (3) to position A (drill).
n Switch the drill / hammer drill selector switch (3)
to position B (hammer drill) as soon as the drill
bit has passed through the tiles.

8.1 Cleaning
n 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.
n We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
n Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.
8.2 Carbon brushes

brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualified electrician.
