pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary
estimation of vibration and noise emissions.
The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres-
ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the
power tool is used for other applications, with different ap-
plication tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration level
and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly
increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total
working period.
To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the
times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but
not actually being used should also be taken into account.
This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions
over the total working period.
Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the
power tool and application tools, keeping their hands warm,
and organising workflows correctly.
Assembly
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Auxiliary handle
Do not operate your power tool without the auxiliary
u
handle (14).
Make sure that the auxiliary handle is always
u
tightened. Otherwise you could lose control of the power
tool when working.
Swivelling the auxiliary handle (see figure A)
You can swivel the auxiliary handle (14) to any angle for a
safe work posture that minimises fatigue.
– Turn the lower gripping end of the auxiliary handle (14)
anticlockwise and swivel the auxiliary handle (14) into
the required position. Then turn the lower gripping end of
the auxiliary handle (14) clockwise to retighten it.
Make sure that the retaining strap of the auxiliary handle
slots into the corresponding groove of the housing.
Selecting drill chucks and tools
Hammer drilling and chiselling require SDS-plus application
tools that are inserted into the SDS-plus drill chuck.
For drilling without impact in wood, metal, ceramic and
plastic as well as for screwdriving, tools without SDS‑plus
are used (e.g. cylindrical shank drill bits). For these tools, a
keyless chuck or a keyed chuck are required.
GBH 2-24 DFR: The SDS plus quick-change chuck (2) can
easily be swapped with the keyless quick-change chuck (1)
supplied.

Changing the drill chuck
Inserting/removing the keyed chuck
GBH 2-24 RE, GBH 2-24 DRE
You must use a suitable drill chuck (keyed or keyless chuck,
accessories) to work with tools that do not have SDS-plus
(e.g. cylindrical shank drill bits).
Fitting the keyed chuck (see figure B)
– Screw the SDS-plus shank (20) into a keyed chuck (19).
Secure the keyed chuck (19) using the securing screw
(18). Note that the securing screw has a left-hand
thread.
Inserting the keyed chuck (see figure B)
– Clean and lightly grease the insertion end of the shank.
– Insert the keyed chuck with the adapter shank into the
tool holder with a turning motion until it automatically
locks.
– Check that it is locked by pulling the keyed chuck.
Removing the keyed chuck
– Push the locking sleeve (5) back and remove the keyed
chuck (19).
Removing/inserting the quick-change chuck
GBH 2-24 DFR
Removing the Quick-Change Chuck (see figure C)
– Pull back on the quick-change chuck locking ring (6), hold
it in this position and pull the SDS plus quick-change
chuck (2) or the keyless quick-change chuck (1) out from
the front.
– Once the quick-change chuck is removed, protect it from
dirt.
Inserting the Quick-Change Chuck (see figure D)
– Before insertion, clean the quick-change chuck and lightly
grease the shank.
– Wrap your whole hand around the SDS plus quick-change
chuck (2) or the keyless quick-change chuck (1). Use a
turning motion to push the quick-change chuck into the
drill chuck holder (21) until you hear it click into place.
– The quick-change chuck is automatically locked. Check
that it is locked by pulling on the quick-change chuck.
Changing the Tool
The dust protection cap (4) largely prevents the penetration
of drilling dust into the tool holder during operation. When
inserting the tool, make sure that the dust protection cap (4)
does not become damaged.
Replace a damaged dust protection cap immediately.
u
It is recommended that you have use an after-sales
service for this.
Changing the tool (SDS plus)
Inserting SDS plus application tools (see figure E)
The SDS-plus drill chuck enables you to change the applica-
tion tool easily and conveniently without needing to use ad-
ditional tools.
– GBH 2-24 DFR: Insert the SDS plus quick-change
chuck (2).
