ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your hammer drill has a precision built Ryobi electric motor.
It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts,
60 Hz only. Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC).
A voltage drop of more than 10 percent will cause a loss of
power and the motor will overheat. If this tool does not
operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.
KNOW YOUR HAMMER DRILL
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use your hammer drill, familiarize
yourself with all operating features and safety requirements.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with your hammer drill to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.
