Switch on/off
The switch [1-6] is an on/off switch (press = ON, re-
lease = OFF).
The speed of the machine depends on how far
the ON/OFF switch is pressed in.
When the ON/OFF switch is released, the work-
ing spindle (chuck) stops immediately.
The LED lamp [1-10] lights up when the on/off
switch [1-6] is pressed and lights up the working
area.
WARNING
Any maintenance or repair work that requires
opening of the motor or gear housing should only
be carried out by an authorised Customer Service
Centre (name supplied by your dealer)!
Maintenance or repair work carried out by an
unauthorised person can lead to the wrong con-
nection of the power leads or other components,
which in turn can lead to accidents with serious
consequences.
Observe the following instructions:
– Keep the air slits on the machine and the charger
free and clean to ensure adequate cooling.
– Keep the contacts on the machine, charger and
battery pack clean.

Information on battery packs
– Where possible, store the battery pack in a cool,
dry place at a temperature between 5 °C and
25 °C.
– Battery packs are most efficient at temperatures
between 20 °C and 30 °C.
– Protect the battery pack from moisture, water
and heat.
– Significantly shorter operating times after each
charge indicate that the battery pack is worn and
should be replaced with a new one.
– The LiIon battery pack is fully compatible with the
charger! Integrated electronics prevent over-
loading and overheating during the charging pro-
cess.
– Do not leave flat battery packs in a charger dis-
connected from the mains power supply for long-
er than one month. There is a risk of total
discharge and the maximum power of the battery
pack may decrease.
– Store the battery pack in its packaging to reduce
the risk of short circuits..
– If LiIon battery packs are to be stored for long pe-
riods without use, they should be charged to 40 %
capacity (approx. 15 mins. charging period).
