Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the chisel, ensure your rotary hammer is set to hammer-only mode. Insert the SDS+ shank into the hammer chuck until you hear a distinct click, confirming that it is locked in place. During operation, keep the shank lightly greased with high-temperature bit lubricant to reduce friction and prevent seizing in the chuck. After use, clean the chisel with a wire brush to remove masonry dust and inspect the point for wear. Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent oxidation, and avoid using the chisel as a pry bar, as lateral pressure can snap the hardened steel shank.
