Water Supply
Place the adapter with the ball valve onto the tool’s
connector and turn into the direction of the arrow up to
the stop. Connect the tool to the water supply system or
a water pressure vessel using the push fit nipple.
Attention! The maximum water pressure should not
exceed 3 bars. In case of higher water pressure, a
pressure relieve valve must be used.
The connector for the tool should be a GARDENA hose connector.
You can obtain it from your local dealer. Use only pure tap water.
If water comes out of the drainage hole at the gear neck, stop your work
and have the tool repaired by an authorised service shop.
Dust Exhaustion
Dust which occurs during your work is hazardous to health.
That is why it is advisable to use a deduster and to wear a
dust mask on dry drilling. Place the adapter for the dedusting
unit onto the tool’s connector and turn into the direction of the
arrow up to the stop. As a suitable wet/dry deduster, our
DSS 25 A is available as add-on. The use of a dedusting
system is also a prerequisite for optimal cutting performance
of the bit (air cooling).
