6. Betjeningsvejledning
Valg af driftstilstande:
The DX27U offers four operating modes. Use the mode selector switch to choose the appropriate function for your task.

Image 6.1: Close-up of the mode selector, indicating the four versatile functions: Drill, Hammer Drill, Bit Rotation, and Chisel.
- Boretilstand: Til boring i træ, metal og plastik uden hammerfunktion.
- Hammerboretilstand: For drilling in concrete, masonry, and stone with combined rotation and hammer action.
- Bit Rotation Mode: Allows for adjusting the chisel angle without hammer action or rotation.
- Mejseltilstand: For chiseling, chipping, and demolition work in concrete and masonry with hammer action only.
Variabel hastighedskontrol:
The tool features a 6-position variable speed control dial. Rotate the dial to select the desired speed for your application. Lower speeds are suitable for larger bits or softer materials, while higher speeds are for smaller bits or harder materials.
Using the Lock-On Switch:
For continuous operation, depress the trigger switch and then press the lock-on button. To release, depress the trigger switch again.
Generelle retningslinjer for drift:
- Sørg for, at arbejdsemnet er sikkert klamped eller afholdt.
