Battery Charging (see figure A)
 Do not use other battery chargers. The supplied battery charger is designed for
the Lithium-Ion battery in your machine.
 Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the power supply must correspond
with the data given on the nameplate of the battery charger. Battery chargers
marked with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Note: The battery supplied is partially charged. To ensure full capacity of the battery,
completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for
the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. In-
terrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging 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 On/Off switch after the machine has been auto-
matically switched off. The battery can be damaged.
The charging procedure begins as soon as the mains plug of the battery charger is
plugged into a socket outlet and the charge connector 8 is plugged into the socket 3
on the bottom of the handle.
The battery charge-control indicator 5 indicates the charging progress. During the
charging process, the indicator flashes green. When the battery charge-control indi-
cator 5 lights up green continuously, the battery is fully charged.
During the charging procedure, the handle of the machine warms up. This is normal.
Disconnect the battery charger from the mains supply when not using it for longer pe-
riods.
The power tool cannot be used during the charge procedure; it is not defective when
inoperative during the charging procedure.
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 rotational direction switch to the
centre position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can lead to injuries.
The drill spindle is locked when the On/Off switch 4 is not pressed. This makes quick,
convenient and easy changing of the tool in the drill chuck possible.
Open the keyless chuck 1 by turning in rotation direction , until the tool can be in-
serted. Insert the tool.
