Your hammer drill is equipped with a "lock-on" feature, which is convenient when continuous drilling for extended periods of time is required. To lock-on, depress the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button located on the side of the handle, then release switch trigger. Release lock-on button and your drill will continue running. To release the lock, depress the switch trigger and release it. If you have the "lock-on" feature engaged during use and your drill becomes disconnected from power supply, disengage the "lock-on" feature immediately. SWITCH TRIGGER Fig. Next, adjust the variable speed control selector until the desired speed is reached. NOTE: If the variable speed control selector is fully turned in the counterclockwise direction (zero setting) your drill may not run. If you desire not to use the variable speed control selector, turn it in the full clockwise direction. This will allow the speed of your drill to be fully controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression. Avoid running your hammer drill at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause your drill to become overheated. If this occurs, cool your drill by running it without a load and at full speed. The following guidelines may be used in determining correct speed for various applications: LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is required. For example: starting holes without center punching, driving screws, mixing paint, and drilling in ceramics. MEDIUM speed is suitable for drilling hard metals, plastics, and laminates. HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is required. For example: drilling in wood; soft metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper; and when using driving accessories.
