1. Conformity Declaration

We, being solely responsible, hereby declare that
these drills, identified by type and serial number *1),
meet all relevant requirements of directives *2) and
standards *3). Technical documents for *4) - see
page 3.
For UK only:
We as manufacturer and authorized person to
compile the technical file, see *4) on page 3,
hereby declare under sole responsibility that these
impact drills, identified by type and serial number
*1) on page 3, fulfill all relevant provisions of
following UK Regulations S.I. 2016/1091, S.I. 2008/
1597, S.I. 2012/3032 and Designated Standards

2. Specified Conditions of Use

The drill is suitable for non-impact drilling into metal,
wood, plastic and similar materials. It is also suit-
able for thread tapping and screwdriving.
The user bears sole responsibility for any damage
caused by inappropriate use.
Generally accepted accident prevention
regulations and the enclosed safety information
must be observed.

3. General Safety Information

For your own protection and for the
protection of your electrical tool, pay
attention to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instruc-
tions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING – Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference. Pass on your electrical tool only
together with these documents.

4. Special Safety Information

4.1 Safety instructions for all operations
a) Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
b) Use the auxiliary handle. Loss of control can
cause personal injury.
c) Brace the tool properly before use. This tool
produces a high output torque and without prperly
bracing the tool during operation, loss of control
may occur resulting in personal injury.

d) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
4.2 Safety instructions when using long drill
bits:
a) Never operate at higher speed than the
maximum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher
speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate
freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
b) Always start drilling at low speed and with
the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At
higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to
rotate freely without contacting the workpiece,
resulting in personal injury.
c) Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit
and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can
bend causing breakage and loss of control,
resulting in personal injury. Pull the plug out of the
plug socket before any adjustments or servicing are
performed.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
Smaller workpieces must be secured such that they
are not carried along with the drill bit when drilling
(e.g. by clamping in a vice or on a work bench with
screw clamps).
Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove
chips and similar material only with the machine at
standstill.
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety
clutch responds, switch off the machine immedi-
ately! If the tool jams or catches, the power supply
to the motor is restricted. Due to the strong force
which can arise, always hold the machine with both
hands using the handles provided, stand securely
and concentrate.
The Metabo S-automatic safety clutch must not be
used for torque control.
Caution with hard screwdriving (driving of screws
with either a metric or an imperial thread into steel)!
The head of the screw may rip off or high restoring
torques may be incurred at the handle.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain substances known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these substances are: lead (from lead-
based paints), crystalline silica (from bricks cement,
etc.), additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservative), some types of wood (like oak and
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
