Your cordless rotary hammer drill DC223/DC224
has been designed for professional drilling,
hammerdrilling and screwdriving applications as well

flammable liquids or gases.
These hammer drills are professional power tools.
DO NOT let children come into contact with the
tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced
operators use this tool.

Overload Clutch

In case of jamming of a drill bit, the drive to the
drill spindle is interrupted. Because of the resulting
forces, always hold the tool with both hands and
take a firm stance.
Brake Mechanism
When the variable speed switch is released, the
spindle will stop rotating instantly.
Active Vibration Control
The active vibration control neutralises rebound
vibration from the hammer mechanism. Lowering
hand and arm vibration, it allows more comfortable
use for longer periods of time and extends the life of
the unit. In operation, a spring loaded mechanism
counterbalances the vibration forces. This can be
sensed by the cushioning effect when pressure is
applied to the tool. Make sure the spring is engaged
but not too firmly. The mechanism should be
allowed to "float".

Electrical Safety

The electric motor has been designed for one
voltage only. Always check that the battery pack
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate. Also make sure that the voltage of your
charger corresponds to that of your mains.
