Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Compatibility:
This set is exclusively designed for use with SDS Plus rotary hammer drills. Ensure your drill has an SDS Plus chuck system before using these bits and chisels. It will not fit standard drill chucks or other SDS systems (e.g., SDS Max).
Setup:
- Insert Drill Bit: Select the desired SDS Plus drill bit. Align the flutes on the bit shank with the corresponding grooves in the SDS Plus chuck of your rotary hammer drill. Push the bit into the chuck until it clicks securely into place. Retract the chuck sleeve to lock the bit.
- Insert Chisel: For chisels, set your rotary hammer drill to the appropriate chisel-only or hammer-only mode (refer to your drill's manual). Insert the chisel shank into the SDS Plus chuck until it locks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, clean the drill bits and chisels of dust and debris. A dry cloth is usually sufficient. For stubborn debris, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the tools are dried thoroughly afterward.
- Storage: Store the bits and chisels in the provided plastic case to protect them from damage and keep them organized. Avoid storing them in environments with high humidity.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the SDS shank ends for damage or excessive wear. Check the cutting edges of the chisels and the tips of the drill bits for any signs of dulling or chipping. Replace worn or damaged accessories promptly to maintain performance and safety.
