Position for chiselling
The rotational direction switch (9) is used to change the rotational direction of the power tool. However, this is not possible while the on/off switch (10) is being pressed.
- Only operate the rotational direction switch (9) when the power tool is not in use.
Always set the rotational direction to clockwise rotation for hammer drilling, drilling and chiselling.
- Clockwise: To drill and to drive in screws, press the rotational direction switch (9) all the way to the left.
- Anticlockwise: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts, press the rotational direction switch (9) all the way to the right.
- To switch on the power tool, press the on/off switch (10).
The worklight (13) lights up when the on/off switch (10) is lightly or fully pressed, allowing the work area to be illuminated in poor lighting conditions.
- To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (10).
For low temperatures, the power tool reaches the full hammer/impact capacity only after a certain time.
You can adjust the speed/impact rate of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (10) to varying extents.
Applying light pressure to the on/off switch (10) results in a low rotational speed/impact rate. Applying increasing pressure to the switch increases the speed/impact rate.
You can also control the speed on the user interface and/or via a smartphone app: .
You can lock the chisel in 40 different positions, so you can select the optimum working position for each task.
- Insert the chisel into the tool holder.
- Turn the impact/mode selector switch (8) to the "Vario-Lock" position.
- Turn the application tool to the required chisel position.
- Turn the impact/mode selector switch (8) to the "chiselling" position. With this, the tool holder is locked.
- Set the rotational direction for chiselling to clockwise.
