,_ WARNING: Read and understand all

instructions. Failure to follow all instructions

listed below may result inelectricshock, fire,
and/or serious personalinjury.

SAVETHESEINSTRUCTIONS
Work Area

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas inviteaccidents.

• DOnot operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of flammable

liquids, gases, or dust. Power toolscreate sparks

whichmay ignite the dustor fumes.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Double insulated tools are equipped with a

polarized plug (one blade iswider than the other).

This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one

way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a

qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way. Double

insulation [] eliminates the need for the three-wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply

system.

• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,

such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if

your body is grounded.

• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet condi-

tions. Water entering a power toolwill increase the

risk of electric shock.

• DOnot abuse the cord. Never use the cord to

carry the tools or pug the plug from an outlet.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or
moving parts. Replace damaged cords immedi-

ately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric
shock.

• When operating a power tool outside, use an
outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W."

These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the
risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use tool while tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inatten-

tion while operating power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, cloth-

ing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes,jewelry, or longhair can be caughtin moving

parts.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger

on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before

turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left
attachedto a rotatingpart ofthe toolmay resultin

personalinjury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Properfooting and balance

enables better controlof thetool inunexpected

situations.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-

tion. Dust mask, nonskidsafety shoes, hard hat, or
hearingprotectionmust be used for appropriate

conditions.

Tool Use and Care

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.

Holdingthe work by handor against your bodyis
unstableand may leadto lossof control.

• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correcttoolwilldo the jobbetter

and safer at the rate for which itis designed.

• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is

dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source

before making any adjustments, changing acces-

sories, or storing the tool. Such preventivesafety

measures reduce the riskof startingthe toolacciden-

tally.

• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and

other untrained persons. Toolsare dangerous in

the hands of untrainedusers.

• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properly maintained tools withsharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control,

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition

that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged,

have the tool serviced before using. Many acci-

dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by

the manufacturer for your model. Accessoriesthat

may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used on another tool.

Service

• Tool service must be performed only by qualified

repair personnel. Service or maintenanceperformed

by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of

injury.

• When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-

ment parts. Follow instructions in the Mainte-
nance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized

parts or failureto follow Maintenance Instructions

may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

Page 3

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact
hidden wiring or its cord. Contactwith a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of thetool "live" and shockthe

operator.

Additional Rules for Safe Operation

• Know your power tool. Read operator's manual

carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this

tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric

shock, fire, or serious injury.

• Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses

have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk

of serious personal injury.

• Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the

operation is dusty. Following thisrule will reduce the
riskof serious personal injury.

• Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection dur-

ing extended periods of operation. Followingthis

rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

• Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged,

have repaired at your nearest Factory Service
Center or other Authorized Service Organiza-

tion. Constantly stay aware of cord location.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric

shock or fire.

• Check damaged parts. Before further use of the

tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should

be carefully checked to determine that it will

operate properly and perform its intended func-
tion. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding

of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized

service center. Following this rule willreduce the
riskof electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

• Don't abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the
cord or yank it to disconnect itfrom the recep-

tacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges. Followingthis rule will reduce the riskof

electric shock or fire.

• Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-

tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to

use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at

least 16 is recommended for an extension cord
100 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100

feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the

next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,

the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause

a drop in line voltage resultingin lossofpower and
overheating.

• Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before

drilling. Following this rule will reduce the risk of

serious personal injury.

• Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool

while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any
medication. Followingthis rulewill reduce the riskof

electricshock, fire, or serious personalinjury.

• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently

and use them to instruct others who may use this
tool. Ifyou loan someone this tool, loan them these

instructions also.

,_k WARNING: Some dust created by power

sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, 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 chemically-

treated 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.

• Place the loop over the cord and pull it tight.

• Mount the chuck key by inserting the geared end
through the hole in the holder. Large keys in the
larger hole, smaller keys in the small hole.

VARIABLE SPEED

See Figure 5.

Your hammer drill has a variable speed control switch
that delivers higher speed with increased trigger pres-
sure. Speed is controlled by the amount of switch
trigger depression.

Avoid running your hammer drill at low speeds for
extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under
constant usage may cause your drill to become over-

heated. If this occurs, cool your drill by running it
without a load and at full speed.

The following guidelines may be used in determining
correct speed for various applications:

• Low speed is ideal when minimum speed and power
is required. For example: starting holes without
center punching, driving screws, mixing paint, and

drilling in ceramics.

• Medium speed is suitable for drilling hard metals,
plastics, and laminates.

• High speed produces best results when maximum
power is required. For example: drilling in wood, soft

metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper, and
when using driving accessories.

_ WARNING: Your hammer drill should never be

connected to power supply when you are assem-

bling parts, making adjustments, installing or
removing drill bits, or when not in use. Discon-

necting your drill will prevent accidental starting

that could cause serious injury.

INSTALLING AUXILIARY HANDLE

DRILLING

See Figure 11.

• Depress and release switch trigger to be sure your
drill is in OFF position before connecting it to power

supply.

• Check the direction of rotation lever for correct

setting (forward or reverse). See Figure 3.

• Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with

clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.

• Plug your hammer drill into power supply source.

• Hold your drill firmly and place bit at point to be

drilled.

• Depress the switch trigger to start your drill. Do not

lock the switch ON for jobs where your drill may need
to be stopped suddenly.

• Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only

enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force
your drill or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.

Let your drill and bit do the work. See Figure 11.

,_ WARNING: Be prepared for binding or break-

through. When these situations occur, drill has a
tendency to grab and kick in the opposite direc-

tion and could cause loss of control when break-

ing through material. This loss of control can
result in possible serious injury. Do not lock the
trigger on jobs where your drill may need to be
stopped suddenly.

When drilling hard, smooth surfaces use a center punch
to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the

drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started.
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to

keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of

the bit and increase the drilling action.

If the bit jams in the workpiece or if your drill stalls, stop
the tool immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece

and determine the reason for jamming.

WOOD DRILLING

• For maximum performance use high speed steel bits
for wood drilling.

• Slide adjustment button on hammer drill down for

normal drilling action.

• Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit

from slipping off the starting point. Increase the
speed as the drill bit bites into the material.

• When drilling through holes, place a block of wood

behind the workpiece to prevent ragged or splintered
edges on the back side of the hole.

• Do not lock the trigger ON for jobs where your

hammer drill may need to be stopped suddenly.

METAL DRILLING

• For maximum performance use high speed steel bits

for metal or steel drilling.

Page 11

LEVEL

ENDVIEW

Fig. 11

• Slide adjustment button on hammer drill down for
normal drilling action (drill mode).

• Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit
from slipping off the starting point.

• Maintain a speed and pressure which allows cutting
without overheating the bit. Applying too much
pressure will:

Overheat the drill;
Wear the bearings;
Bend or burn bits; and

Produce off-center or irregular shaped holes.

• When drilling large holes in metal, we recommend
that you drill with a small bit first, then finish with a

larger bit. Also, lubricate the bit with oil to improve
drilling action and increase bit life.

MASONRY DRILLING

• For maximum performance use carbide-tipped

masonry impact bits when drilling holes in brick, tile,

concrete, etc.

• Slide adjustment button on hammer drill up for

hammer mode.

• Apply light pressure and medium speed forbest

results in brick.

• Apply additional pressure for hard materials such as

concrete.

• When drilling holes in tile, practice on a scrap piece

to determine the best speed and pressure.

CHUCKREMOVAL

See Figure 12.

The chuck must be removed in order to use some
accessories. To remove:

• Unplug your drill.

_k WARNING: Failure to unplug your drill could

result in accidental starting causing serious injury.

GENERAL

Only the parts shown on parts list, page 17, are
intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer. All

other parts represent an important part of the double
insulation system and should be serviced only at a

Sears Service Center.
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most

plastics are susceptible to damage from various types
of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their

use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.

WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids,

gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating
oils, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They

contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic.

It has been found that electric tools are subject to
accelerated wear and possible premature failure when

they are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. The chips
and grindings from these materials are highly abrasive
to electric tool parts, such as bearings, brushes,

commutators, etc. Consequently, it is not recommended
that this tool be used for extended work on any
fiberglassmaterial, wallboard, spackling compounds, or
plaster. During any use on these materials, it is

extremely important that the tool is cleaned frequently
by blowing with an air jet.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life of

the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore,

no further lubrication is required.

_1, WARNING: Always wear safety goggles or safety

glasses with side shields during power tool opera-
tion or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also

wear a dust mask.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulationis a concept in safety in electric power

tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire

grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need
to be grounded.

IMPORTANT

Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system and should
be performed only by a qualified service technician. For

service, we suggest you return the tool to your nearest
Sears store for repair. Always use original factory
replacement parts when servicing.

EXTENSION CORDS

The use of any extension cord willcause some lossof
power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent

tool overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy
enough to carry the current the tool will draw.

Awire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is

recommended for an extension cord 100 feet or less in
length. When working outdoors, use an extension cord

that is suitable for outdoor use. The cord's jacket will be

marked WA.

_, CAUTION: Keep extension cords away from the

drilling area and position the cord so that itwill not
get caught on lumber, tools, etc., during drilling
operation.

• IKWARNING: Check extension cords before each

use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use
tool with a damaged cord since touching the
damaged area could cause electrical shock result-

ing in serious injury.

Extension cords suitable for use with your drill are
available at your nearest Sears Retail Store.
