Installing hex fitting steels
WARNING: Only use this tool with good quality 30mm or 1-1/8" diameter steel bits with hex
fitting. Do not force other types of steels to fit. Misuse of this tool could cause permanent damage,
and may invalidate your warranty.

that the tool retainer is in the unlocked position
2 . Insert the steel into the Tool Holder (7), ensuring the groove in the steel aligns with the tool
retainer
3 . Pull out the spring-loaded tool retainer and rotate 180° into the locked position to secure the
bit (Fig . A)
4 . Test that the steel has been correctly installed by trying to pull it out of the tool holder
Operation
WARNING: Always wear adequate personal protection equipment when setting up and
operating this machine .

Note: If the lock-on switch was engaged, depress the on/off trigger switch again and release, to
disengage the lock-on mechanism and switch off the machine.
Notes:
• Applying excess pressure does not result in faster or more efficient breaking
• Best breaking results can be obtained by only applying slight pressure to the tool, enough to
keep the automatic clutch engaged and the hammer action working
• If the pressure applied to the breaker has a noticeable effect on the speed, reduce the pressure
Overloading the breaker will reduce its service life

3 . Fill the reservoir with the recommended oil (see "Specifications")
WARNING: DO NOT overfill. Only top up until the level reaches about ¾ of the indicator
window.
4 . Replace the metal cover you removed previously and tighten the four screws securely
5 . Stand the machine up vertically, check for oil leaks around the metal plate, and check the oil level
after refilling. Correct the fill level if necessary.
