How to use

Select a rotary hammer with an SDS MAX chuck and secure the drill bit according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Mark the drilling location and, if required, set the hammer to combined hammer-and-rotation mode. Apply steady axial pressure without twisting the tool body; allow the hammer action to do the work. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear dust from the hole and maintain drilling efficiency. For deep holes, use intervals to remove debris and check alignment.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including safety goggles, hearing protection and dust mask. For reinforced concrete, use progressive drilling technique and adequate cooling intervals to avoid overheating. For precise anchor installation, verify hole diameter and depth against anchor manufacturer specifications before insertion.
