Troubleshooting

Tool does not start.

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check if the safety lock-off is engaged. If the issue persists, try a different battery.

Reduced hammering action.

Check if the correct mode (hammer drill or chisel) is selected. Ensure the bit is properly seated in the SDS-plus chuck. The tool may require servicing if the issue continues.

Bit gets stuck.

If drilling, switch to rotation-only mode if possible. If chiseling, gently twist the tool while applying light pressure. Avoid forcing the bit excessively.

Overheating.

Allow the tool to cool down between extended uses. Ensure air vents are clear of debris. Do not overload the tool beyond its intended capacity.
