Inserting and Removing SDS Plus

This tool uses SDS Plus accessories (refer to the
inset in fig. 3 for a cross-section of an SDS Plus
bit shank). We recommend using professional

holder (f).
3. Push the bit down and turn it slightly until it fits

The hammering function requires the bit to be
able to move axially several centimetres when
locked in the tool holder.
5. To remove a bit, pull back the tool holder sleeve
(j) and pull out the bit.
WARNING: Always wear gloves when
you change accessories. The exposed
metal parts on the tool and accessory
may become extremly hot during
operation.
