Intended Use; Assembly And Adjustments - DeWalt D25831 Instruction Manual

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire,
the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge
has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. When using more than one extension
to make up the total length, be sure each individual
extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate
marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss
of power and overheating. D
if this tool does not operate, check power supply.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS


WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Fitting the Side Handle (Fig. B)
The side handle clamps to the mounting area
3
gear case and may be rotated 360˚ to permit right- or left-
hand use. The side handle must be tightened sufficiently to
resist the twisting action of the tool if the accessory binds
or stalls. Be sure to grip the side handle at the far end to
control the tool during a stall.
To loosen side handle, rotate counterclockwise.
Fig. B
Active Vibration Control (Fig. A)
D25601, D25604, D25831
For best vibration control, hold the tool with one hand
on the main handle and the other hand on the side
4
handle . Apply just enough pressure so the damping
3
device on the main handle is approximately midstroke. The
hammer only needs enough pressure to engage the active
vibraton control 5 . Applying too much pressure will not
make the tool drill or chip faster and active vibration control
will not engage.
