Mains plug replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you
are competent to do this, proceed as instructed
below. If you are in doubt, contact an
authorized BTI repair agent or a qualified
electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug
with bared copper conductors is dangerous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs
fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points
in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)
and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the
outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the
two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal
screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N)
wires to the earth pin marked E or
For 115 V units with a power rating exceeding 1500
W, we recommend to fit a plug to BS4343 standard.

Assembly and adjustment
Prior to assembly and adjustment
always unplug the tool.
Setting the electronic speed and impact
control dial (fig. B1 & B2)
• Turn the dial (2) to the desired level. The higher
the number, the greater the speed and impact
energy. With dial settings from „1" (low) to „7"
(full power) the tool is extremely versatile and
adaptable for many different applications.
.
(BH 5-40 ME from "1" to "5")
The required setting is a matter of experience.
E.g. when using smaller diameter bits or when
drilling into ceramic or brittle materials, set the
dial to position „1" (low).
Selecting the operating mode (fig. D1 & D2 )
Your Rotary Hammer can be used in two
operating modes:
Hammer drilling: simultaneous rotating
and impacting - for all concrete and
masonry drilling operations.
