Left Rotation: For loosening and unscrewing
screws and nuts, press the rotational direction
switch 5 through to the right stop.
Setting the Torque
The required torque can be preselected in 15
steps with the torque preselection ring 2. With
the correct setting, the insert tool is stopped as
soon as the screw is screwed flush into the ma-
terial or when the set torque is reached.
Select a higher setting when driving out screws,
or set to the "Drilling" symbol.
Gear Selection, Mechanical
The gear selector 3 can be actuated at stand-
still or when the machine is running. Howev-
er, this should not be done while operating
at full load or maximum speed.
Two speed ranges can be preselected with the
gear selection lever 3.
Gear I:
Low speed range; for screwdriving or working
with large drilling diameter.
Gear II:
High speed range; for working with small drilling
diameter.
If the gear selector 3 cannot be pushed through
to the stop, lightly turn the drill chuck.
Setting the Operating Mode
Drilling and Screwdriving
Set the preselection ring 2 to the "Drill-
ing without impact" symbol.
Hammer Drilling (GSB 36 V-LI)
Set the preselection ring 2 to the "Im-
pact drilling" symbol.
Switching On and Off
To start the power tool, press the On/Off switch
6 and keep it pressed.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off
switch 6.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be
variably adjusted, depending on how far the
On/Off switch 6 is pressed.
1 609 929 M42 | (26.9.07)
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 6 results in
a low rotational speed. Further pressure on the
switch results in an increase in speed.
Fully Automatic Spindle Locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 6 is not pressed, the
drill spindle and thus the tool holder are locked.
This enables screws to be screwed in, even when
the battery is empty and allows for the tool to be
used as a screwdriver.
Run-on Brake
When the On/Off switch 6 is released, the chuck
brakes to a stop, thus preventing the run-on of
the tool.
When driving in screws, wait until the screw is
screwed in flush with the material and then re-
lease the On/Off switch 6. By doing so, the head
of the screw does not penetrate into the materi-
al.
Temperature Control Indicator
The red LED of the temperature control indicator
10 signals that the battery or the electronics of
the power tool (when the battery is inserted) are
not within the optimum temperature range. In
this case, the power tool will not operate at full
capacity.
Temperature control of the battery:
– The red LED 10 lights up continuously after in-
serting the battery into the charger: The bat-
tery is not within the charging temperature
range between 0 °C and 45 °C and cannot be
charged.
– The red LED 10 flashes when pushing button
12 or pressing the On/Off switch 6 (when the
battery is inserted): The battery is not within
the temperature range for operation of
– 10 °C to +60 °C.
– The battery switches off at a temperature
above 70 °C until the optimum temperature
range is reached again.
Temperature control of the power tool electron-
ics:
– The red LED 10 lights up continuously when
pressing the On/Off switch 6: The tempera-
ture of the power tool electronics is above
75 °C.
