spindle is pushed in. This facilitates convenient
work. In order to enable automatic mode, briefly
press the trigger switch (3).
Note: The tool switches to sleep mode after 15
minutes without use. To activate again: press the
trigger switch (3) briefly.
Warning. Risk of injury from inadvertent
automatic machine start-up. In automatic
mode, do not touch any rotating parts such as
spindle, screwdriver bit or bit holder.
Impulse mode
Protruding screws can be precisely
countersunk using this function. Press
trigger switch (3) and countersink the screw with the
attached depth stop. To switch off release the
trigger switch.
7.3 Changing screwdriver bit
Prevent inadvertent starting: Set manual
mode and remove battery pack from the tool
before performing any retooling.
Inserting and removing the screwdriver bit:
See page 2, fig. 1.
- Remove the depth stop (11).
- Insert: Insert the screwdriver bit (12) in the bit
holder (13).
- Remove: Pull the screwdriver bit (12) from the bit
holder (13) using pliers.
- Attach the depth stop (11) again:
turn and engage in position when mounted.
Note: The bit holder (13) may be removed from the
spindle if the sleeve (15) is pulled back.
7.4 Working with depth stop
See page 2, fig. 2.
The depth of screw can be set by turning the setting
sleeve (17). On rotation of the knurled screw
corresponds to a drill depth of around 1.5 mm.
Adjust the setting sleeve (17) so that the screw
head is approx. 2 mm outside the stop sleeve (16)
when applying the screw.
Insert a screw as a test. Correct the screw depth if
necessary.
When screwing in crosshead screws, press
the machine with the screwdriver bit (12) firmly
against the screw until the screw is fully inserted;
otherwise the screwdriver bit could slip out of the
cross recess and damage the material.

8. Troubleshooting

8.1 Clean stiff depth stop
If the depth setting is stiff, the depth stop can be
dismantled without using tools. To do this, turn the
setting sleeve (17) clockwise until it becomes loose
from the union sleeve (18). Twist out the stop sleeve
(17) and clean thread.
Note: Only clean or vacuum mechanically. Do not
use oils or greases.

8.2 The machine's multifunctional
monitoring system
If the machine switches off automatically, the
machine electronics have activated automatic
protection mode.
In spite of this protective function, overloading
is still possible with certain applications and
can result in damage to the machine.
Causes and remedies:
1. Battery pack almost empty (the electronics
prevent the battery pack from discharging totally
and avoid irreparable damage).
If one LED (8) is flashing, the battery pack is
almost empty. If necessary, press the button (7)
and check the LED lamps (8) to see the charge
level. If the battery pack is almost empty, it must
be recharged.
2. Long continuous overloading of the machine will
activate the temperature cut-out.
Leave the machine or battery pack to cool.
Note: If the battery pack feels very warm, the
pack will cool more quickly in your "AIR
COOLED" charger.
Note: The machine will cool more quickly if you
operate it at idling speed.
3. If the current is too high (for example, if the
machine seizes continuously for long periods),
the machine switches off.
Switch off the machine at the trigger switch (3).
Then continue working as normal. Try to prevent
the machine from seizing.

9. Maintenance

Before carrying out any maintenance: remove the
battery pack from the machine.
Regularly remove and clean the depth stop (11).

Particles may become deposited inside the power
tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the
power tool.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often
and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents
using a vacuum cleaner. Prior to this operation,
separate the power tool from the power source and
wear protective goggles and a dust mask.
