OPERATION
Instructions for Use
WARNING:
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Be aware of the location of pipework
and wiring.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to
the tool (approx. 5 kg). Excessive
force does not speed up drilling but
decreases tool performance and may
shorten tool life.
• Do not drill or drive too deep to
prevent damage to the dust cover.
• Always hold the tool firmly with both
hands and ensure a secure stance .
Always operate the tool with the side
handle properly mounted.
Proper Hand Position (fi g. A, G)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS use
proper hand position as shown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS hold
securely in anticipation of a sudden
reaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the side
handle (9), with the other hand on the main handle
(16).
Switching On and Off (fi g. A)
• To run the tool, press the variable speed switch
(1). The pressure exerted on the variable speed
switch determines the tool speed.
• To stop the tool, release the switch.
• To lock the tool in off position, move the
forward/reverse slider (2) to the central position.
Hammerdrilling (fi g. A)
• Set the mode selector switch (3) to the
“hammerdrilling” position.
• Insert the appropriate drill bit. For best results
use high quality carbide-tipped bits.
• Adjust the side handle (9) as required.
• If necessary, set the drilling depth.
• Mark the spot where the hole is to be drilled.
• Place the drill bit on the spot and switch on the
tool.
Rotary Drilling (fi g. A)
• Set the mode selector switch (3) to the “rotary
drilling” position.
• Depending on your tool, follow either of the
following instructions:
– Fit a chuck adaptor/chuck assembly (DC212/
DC213). Special SDS Plus
®
adaptors with
threaded sections are available for use with
standard 10 or 13 mm chucks to enable
straight shank bits to be used.
• Proceed as described for hammerdrilling.
WARNING: Never use standard chucks
in the hammerdrilling mode.
Screwdriving (fi g. A)
• Set the mode selector switch (3) to the “rotary
drilling” position.
• Select the direction of rotation.
• Depending on your tool, follow either of the
following instructions:
– Insert the special SDS Plus
®
screwdriving
adaptor for use with hexagonal screwdriver
bits (DC212/DC213).
• Insert the appropriate screwdriver bit. When
driving slotted head screws always use bits with
a finder sleeve.
• Gently press the variable speed switch (1) to
prevent damage to the screw head. In reverse
(LH) rotation the tool speed is automatically
reduced for easy screw removal.
• When the screw is flush with the workpiece,
release the variable speed switch to prevent the
screw head from penetrating into the workpiece.
