edges or moving parts. A damaged cable increases
the risk of electrical shock.

prevents damage to the extension cable.

ON/OFF switch
The ON/OFF switch is used to start and stop the
product.
To do a check of the ON/OFF switch
1. Connect the product to the power supply.
2. Set the ON/OFF switch to "1" to start the product.
3. Set the ON/OFF switch to "0" and make sure that the
product stops.
Friction clutch
The friction clutch is integrated in the gearbox of the
product. It prevents damage to the product if the drill bit
stops during operation. If the load is too high, the friction
clutch is released and stops the drill spindle but keeps
the motor on for some seconds. The friction clutch
engages again if the load is decreased and the
operation can continue. If the drill bit is caught in the
material and fully stops, the friction clutch stops the
motor immediately.
CAUTION: Make sure that the release time
of the clutch is not more than 3-4 seconds,
because if not wear and heat will increase
quickly.
