Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked-off posi-
tion before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Inserting and Releasing Battery Pack
Slide charged Battery Pack (Fig. 2, 11) into the
housing until the battery pack locks into position.
Your tool is equipped with a secondary locking
latch to prevent the battery pack from com-
pletely falling out of the tool housing, should it
become loose due to vibration.
To remove the Battery Pack (11), press the Bat-
tery Pack Release Button (10) and slide the bat-
tery pack forward.
Press the Battery Pack Release Button (10)
again and slide the battery pack completely out
of tool housing.
Installing SDS-max® Accessories
Clean the insert shank end of the accessory to
remove any debris, then lightly grease with a
light oil or lubricant.
Pull and hold Locking Sleeve (Fig. 3, 2) back-
ward. Insert accessory into the tool holder
through the Dust Shield (1), while twisting and
pushing inward until it sets into place. Release
locking sleeve to lock bit in place. Pull outward
on the accessory to be certain it is locked into
the tool holder.
Note: The high efficiency available from the ro-
tary 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 operat-
ing the tool with sharp accessories.
Removing SDS-max® Accessories
Accessories may be hot af-
ter use. Avoid contact with
skin and use proper protective gloves or cloth to
remove.
To remove an accessory, pull accessory Locking
Sleeve (Fig. 4, 2) backward and pull bit forward.
