- Release the collar. Pull on the bit to ensure it is securely locked.
For standard drill bits, use the included SDS-Plus Adaptor and Chuck Key:
- Attach the SDS-Plus Adaptor to the drill as described above.
- Insert your standard drill bit into the adaptor's chuck.
- Tighten the chuck using the Chuck Key until the bit is firmly secured.

Figure 3: Steps for attaching the SDS-Plus adaptor and drill bits.
3.2 Réglage de la poignée auxiliaire
The auxiliary handle can be rotated 360 degrees for optimal control and comfort. Loosen the handle's locking mechanism, adjust it to your desired position, and then tighten it securely before operation.

4. Modes de fonctionnement
The RH15A offers four distinct operating modes, selectable via the side multifunction selector:
- Exercice uniquement : For drilling into wood, steel, or plastic.
- Perceuse à percussion : Combines rotation with hammering action, ideal for concrete or brick.
- Burinage (marteau uniquement) : Provides hammering action without rotation, suitable for heavy-duty demolition work.
- Réglage de la position du ciseau : Allows you to adjust the angle of the chisel before use to suit various work intensity requirements.
