See Figure 2.
Your hammer drill is equipped with a "lock-on” feature,

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.
^ WARNING: Before connecting your hammer
drill to power supply source, always check to be
sure it is not in "lock-on" position (depress and
release switch trigger). Failure to do so could
result in accidental starting of your drill resulting
in possible serious injury. Also, do not lock the
trigger on jobs where your drill may need to be
stopped suddenly.
REVERSIBLE
See Figure 3.
Your hammer drill has the feature of being reversible.
The direction ot chuck rotation is controlled by a lever
located above the switch trigger. With your drill held in
normal operating position, the rotation lever should be
positioned to the left of the switch for drilling. The
direction of rotation is reversed when the lever is to the
right of the switch.
The design of the switch will not permit changing the
direction of rotation while the drill is running. Release
the switch trigger and allow the drill to stop before
changing its direction.
Note: Your hammer drill will not run unless the switch
lever is pushed fully to the left or right.
