How to use

Fit the bit securely into the rotary hammer's SDS-plus chuck according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Select the hammer or hammer-drill mode and position the bit perpendicular to the drilling surface. Begin drilling at low speed to create a starter point, then increase to the appropriate speed and apply steady pressure, allowing the tool's impact action to do the work. Clear dust from the hole periodically to maintain drilling efficiency and prevent bit binding.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection and dust mask. For best results, match the drill bit diameter to anchor or fixing specifications and avoid excessive side load to prolong bit life. Replace the bit if signs of significant wear or chipping appear.
