How do I switch between standard drilling and impact drilling?
There is typically a mode selector switch on the drill body, often located near the chuck or on top of the gear housing, to toggle between standard drilling and impact drilling modes.
Troubleshooting
Drill not turning on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working 240V outlet. Check if the trigger switch is fully depressed. Inspect the power cord for any visible damage.
Drill bit slipping from chuck
Re-tighten the keyless chuck, ensuring the drill bit is fully inserted and centered. Make sure the chuck is clean and free of debris. If the problem persists, the chuck may need replacement.
Overheating during use
Reduce the drilling pressure and speed. Ensure ventilation slots are clear of dust. Allow the drill to cool down periodically, especially during prolonged use or when drilling hard materials.
Weak or no impact function
Verify that the impact function is engaged. Ensure you are using the correct mode for masonry or concrete. Check that the drill bit is appropriate for impact drilling.
