Assembly
Battery Charging (see figure A)
Use only the battery chargers listed on the
accessories page. Only these battery charg-
ers are matched to the lithium ion battery of
your power tool.
Note: The battery is supplied partially charged.
To ensure full capacity of the battery, complete-
ly charge the battery in the battery charger be-
fore using your power tool for the first time.
The lithium ion battery can be charged at any
time without reducing its service life. Interrupt-
ing the charging procedure does not damage the
battery.
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep dis-
charging by the "Electronic Cell Protection
(ECP)". When the battery is empty, the machine
is switched off by means of a protective circuit:
The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Do not continue to press the
WARNING
On/Off switch after the ma-
chine has been automatically switched off. The
battery can be damaged.
To remove the battery 5 press the unlocking but-
tons 4 and pull out the battery downwards. Do
not exert any force.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A
long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Changing the Tool (see figure B)
Before any work on the machine (e. g.,
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, set the rota-
tional direction switch to the centre posi-
tion. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off
switch can lead to injuries.
The drill spindle is locked when the On/Off
switch 7 is not pressed. This makes quick, con-
venient and easy changing of the tool in the drill
chuck possible.

metal can be harmful to one's health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
