Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the battery
Spit
Use only original
voltage listed on the nameplate of your power tool. Using
other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Note: Use of batteries not suitable for the machine can lead to
malfunctions of or cause damage to the power tool. Set the
rotational direction switch 6 to the centre position in order to
avoid unintentional starting. Insert the charged battery 5 into
the handle so that it can be felt to engage and faces flush
against the handle.
Reversing the rotational direction (see figure C)
The rotational direction switch 6 is used to reverse the
rotational direction of the machine. However, this is not
possible with the On/Off switch 7 actuated.
Right Rotation: For drilling and driving in screws, push the
rotational direction switch 6 left to the stop.
Left Rotation: For loosening and unscrewing screws and nuts,
press the rotational direction switch 6 through to the right stop.
Setting the torque
With the torque presetting ring 2 the required torque setting
can be preselected in 20 steps. With the correct setting, the
insert tool is stopped as soon as the screw is screwed flush into
the material or when the adjusted torque is reached. The safety
clutch is deactivated in the "
Select a higher setting or switch to the "
unscrewing screws.
Gear selection, mechanical
Actuate the gear selector 3 only when the machine is at a
standstill.
Two speed ranges can be preselected with the gear selector
3.
Gear I:
Low speed range; for screwdriving or working with large drilling
diameter.
Gear II:
High speed range; for working with small drilling diameter. If
the gear selector 3 cannot be pushed through to the stop, lightly
turn the drill chuck with drill.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 7 and keep it
pressed.
The power light 9 lights up when the On/Off switch 7 is slightly
or completely pressed, and allows the work area to be
illuminated when lighting conditions are insufficient.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 7.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably
adjusted, depending on how far the On/Off switch 7 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 7 results in a low rotational
speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase in
speed.
Fully automatic spindle locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 7 is not pressed, the drill spindle and
thus the tool holder are locked.
This enables screws to be screwed in, even when the battery
is empty and allows for the machine to be used as a screwdriver.
Run-on Brake
When the On/Off switch 7 is released, the chuck brakes to a
stop, thus preventing the run-on of the tool. When driving in
screws, wait until the screw is screwed in flush with the
material and then release the On/Off switch 7.
By doing so, the head of the screw does not penetrate into the
material.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool cannot be subject to
overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery
temperature range of 0–70 °C is exceeded, the speed is
reduced.

The power tool will not run at full speed until reaching the

Working Advice
Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
After longer periods of working at low speed, allow the machine
to cool down by running it for approx. 3 minutes at maximum
speed with no load.
For drilling in metal, use only perfectly sharpened HSS drill bits
(HSS=high-speed steel). The appropriate quality is guaranteed by
the accessories program.
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it is
advisable to predrill a pilot hole with the core diameter of the
thread to approx. / of the screw length.

Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as during
transport and storage, remove the battery from the
power tool. There is danger of injury when unintentionally
actuating the On/Off switch.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
When the battery is no longer operative, please refer to an
authorized after-sales service agent for
After-sales Service and Application Service
Our after-sales service responds to your questions concerning
maintenance and repair of your product as well as spare parts.

Transport
The contained lithium ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous
Goods Legislation requirements. The user can transport the
batteries by road without further requirements.
When being transported by third parties (e.g.: air transport or
forwarding agency), special requirements on packaging and
labelling must be observed. For preparation of the item being
shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is required.
Dispatch batteries only when the housing is undamaged. Tape or
mask off open contacts and pack up the battery in such a
manner that it cannot move around in the packaging. Please also
observe possibly more detailed national regulations.
Disposal
The machine, rechargeable batteries, accessories and
packaging should be sorted for environmental-friendly
recycling.
Do not dispose of power tools and batteries/rechargeable
batteries into household waste!
Only for EC countries:
According
2012/19/EU, power tools that are no longer
usable, and according to the European
Guideline 2006/66/EC, defective or used
battery packs/batteries, must be collected
separately
