Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely control the power tool.
Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Rotary Hammer Safety Rules
Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or it own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. Do not drill, fasten or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
Use a metal detector to determine if there are gas or water pipes hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance before beginning the operation.
Striking or cutting into a gas line will result in explosion. Water entering an electrical device may cause electrocution.
Always use the side handle for maximum control over torque reaction or kick-back. Never attempt to operate this tool with one hand. The slip clutch engages if you firmly control the tool during a torque reaction or kickback.
-3-
BM 1619P00836 12-06 1/5/07 9:42 AM Page 4
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a dust mask or respirator for applications which generate dust. Safety goggles or eye protection will help deflect fragments of the material that may be thrown toward your face and eyes. Dust generated or gases released from the material you are cutting (i.e. asbestos insulated pipes, radon) may cause respiratory difficulties.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the exposure time by taking frequent rest periods. Vibration caused by hammer-drill action may be harmful to your hands and arms.
Position the cord clear of rotating bit. Do not wrap the cord around your arm or wrist.
If cord becomes entangled with the spinning bit it could entrap you causing serious personal injury.
Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool or side handle and walls or posts. Should the bit become bound or jammed in the work, the reaction torque of the tool could crush your hand or leg.
Do not strike the bit with a handheld hammer or sledge hammer when attempting to dislodge a bound or jammed bit. Fragments of metal from the bit could dislodge and strike you or bystanders.
Never place the tool down until the bit or accessory have come to a complete stop.
Do not use dull or damaged bits and accessories. Dull or damaged bits have a greater tendency to bind in the workpiece.
When removing the bit from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper protective gloves when grasping the bit or accessory.
Accessories may be hot after prolonged use.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at your side. The spinning drill bit may become entangled with clothing and injury may result.
! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,WARNINGdrilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

The tool has an internal preset clutch. The clutch is set such that sufficient force is transmitted to the bit for most drilling conditions but it will slip when bit binds in the hole or the tool is overloaded. Be aware that due to required clutch setting, you may experience a torque reaction an instant before the clutch slips. This torque reaction will twist the body of the rotary hammer in the opposite direction as the bit rotates, i.e., counterclockwise. As clutch is slipping, the bit will most likely stop rotating. When the binding force on the bit is removed

INSTALLING & REMOVING ACCESSORIES
3-JAW CHUCK
The 3 Jaw Chuck with SDS Shank can convert your tool for use with straight shank bits.
For small bits, open jaws enough to insert the bit up to the flutes. For large bits, insert the bit as far as it will go. Center the bit as you close the jaws by hand. This positions the bit properly, giving maximum contact between the chuck jaws and the bit shank (Fig. 8).
To tighten chuck, insert key into each of the three key holes in succession and tighten clockwise firmly.
The chuck can be released by using one hole only.
Note: The 3-Jaw Chuck is for use only in “Dril only” mode. The 3-Jaw Chuck is not for use when drilling with hammering action.
FIG. 8
TOOL TIPS
Following a few simple tips will reduce wear on the tool and the chance of injury to the operator.
NOTE: The high efficiency available from the rotary hammers can only be obtained if sharp and undamaged accessories are used. The “cost” to maintain sharp and undamaged accessories is more than offset by the “time saved” in operating the tool with sharp accessories.
All hammers require a short period of time to warm up. Depending on the room temperature, this time may vary from approximately 15 seconds (90˚F) to 2 minutes (32˚F). A new hammer requires a break-in period before full performance is realized. This period may require up to 5 hours of operation. Carbide tipped bits: Used for drilling stone, concrete, cement, brick, cinder block and other unusually hard non-metals. The Rotary Hammer is designed for “SDS” Carbide Tipped Bits up to 3/4 inch diameter.
-9-
BM 1619P00836 12-06 1/5/07 9:43 AM Page 10
You will extend the life of your bits and do neater work if you always put the bit in contact with the workpiece BEFORE pulling the trigger. During operation, hold the drill firmly and exert moderate, steady pressure. Too much pressure at low speed will stall the hammer. Too little pressure will keep the bit from cutting and cause excess friction by sliding over the surface. This can be damaging to the drill and bit.
Shanks of all drill bits should be wiped clean prior to using and immediately after removing.
Recall these instructions for safe operation:
1. Some materials require slow drilling speeds; whereas, others require higher speed to produce the best results.
2. All work must be supported or secured before drilling and steady, even pressure applied in line with the drill bit.
3. As the drill bit cuts through the opposite side, reduce the pressure and continue running the drill as the bit is withdrawn.
Materials such as glass, porcelain, ceramics, tiles, plastics, etc., should be drilled at low speeds with specially designed drill bits and lubricants.
DRILLING WOOD OR PLASTIC
If backing block is not used, ease up on the pressure just before the bit breaks through the wood to avoid splintering. Complete the hole from the opposite side immediately after the point breaks through. If bit binds, reverse the drilling operation to help remove the bit from the work.
DRILLING METAL
Make a center punch in the material for easier starting. Use enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. If the bit is allowed to merely spin in the hole, it will become dull within a short time. When drilling a larger hole, it is faster and easier on your power pack to first make a smaller hole and enlarge it to the required size. Lubricate the tip of the bit occasionally with CUTTING OIL for easier metal drilling. If bit binds, reverse the drilling to help remove the bit from the work.
DRILLING MASONRY
Use carbide-tipped masonry bit for cinder block, mortar, common brick, soft stone and other materials. The amount of pressure to be used is dependent upon the type of material being drilled. Soft materials require less pressure while the hard materials need more pressure to prevent the drill bit from spinning.
