Q:
What is the difference between this new demo hammer and a SDS MAX Rotary Hammer?

Q:
What are my options for dust management?
A:
This demo hammer can be used with the SDS MAX Chipping Boot (5318-DE, sold separately) which can provide OSHA compliance when used with a Table 1 Compliant dust extractor. A water supply can also be used to spray the area someone is chipping to mitigate dust.
Q:
How do I rotate the bit if my chisel is not at the right angle?
A:
Make sure the mode select knob on top is pointing to the rotate icon (left or right). Grab the area of the chuck that has ridges and an arrow icon and rotate in the direction of the arrow until in the desired position. Turn the mode select knob back into chipping mode (straight forward). See manual for further instructions.
