do the job better and safer when used at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn activate or deactivate it. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is extremely dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the main plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before changing accessories,
making any adjustments, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures will reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to use and operate the power tool.
Power tools are extremely dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, leakage and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, please have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents and injuries are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep all the cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are more precise and easier to control.
g) Always use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with the instructions of this instruction manual,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for applications different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair technician using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Machine-Specific Safety Warnings

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory or fastener may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory and fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for
assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water
line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.
• Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool insert jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that can cause
kickback.
The tool insert jams when:
The power tool is subject to overload or it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
• Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
• Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or explode.
• Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss
of control over the power tool.
• Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting. Protect the battery against heat, e. g., also against continuous sun
irradiation and fire. There is danger of explosion.
• In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. Provide for fresh air and seek medical help in
case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.
• When the battery is defective, liquid can escape and come into contact with adjacent components. Check any parts
concerned.
Clean such parts or replace them, if required.

Intended Use

This power tool is intended for driving in and loosening screws as well as for drilling and percussion drilling in wood, metal,
