Quick guide from the manual
This document provides essential operating instructions for the Ozito 18V Brushless Hammer Drill (PXBHS-100). The tool is designed for DIY use only. Please note that the battery and charger are sold separately and are compatible with the Ozito Power X Change range.
Battery & Charging
The battery is shipped in a low charge condition and must be charged before first use. To charge, connect the charger to a mains outlet, align the battery ribs with the charger recess, and slide it on. The LED indicator will show the charging status: red indicates charging, green indicates fully charged. If both LEDs flash, the battery is defective; if both are illuminated, the battery is too hot or cold.
Battery Installation
To install, slide the battery into the base of the drill until it clicks into place. To remove, hold down the battery release button and slide the battery out.
Keyless Chuck
Ensure the tool is switched off before changing bits. Rotate the chuck collar anti-clockwise to open, insert the bit, and tighten by turning the collar clockwise. Always pull on the bit to ensure it is firmly secured.
Controls
- Forward/Reverse Lever: Push left for forward rotation, right for reverse.
- Variable Speed Trigger: Squeeze to start, release to stop. The speed increases with trigger pressure.
- Gear Selector: Slide forward for first gear (high torque, low speed) or backward for second gear (low torque, high speed).
Functions
Use the function collar to select the mode:
- Drilling: Align the arrow with the drill icon for wood, metal, or plastic.
- Screwdriving: Align with the screw icon. Use the torque collar to adjust settings to prevent over-tightening.
- Hammer Drilling: Align with the hammer icon for concrete or masonry.
Maintenance
Keep ventilation slots clean and free of debris. Use a cloth for cleaning; do not use solvents. Store in a dry, frost-free location out of reach of children. The tool features a battery protection system that cuts power if the tool is overloaded or the battery is low.
