Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
u
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-
u
tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
Safety Warnings for Impact Wrenches
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
u
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasteners
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the operator an elec-
tric shock.

wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use suitable detectors to determine if there are hid-
u
den supply lines or contact the local utility company
for assistance. Contact with electric cables can cause
fire and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can lead to ex-
plosion. Breaking water pipes causes property damage.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
u
hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany 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 dam-
age or may cause an electric shock.
Hold the power tool securely. When tightening and
u
loosening screws be prepared for temporarily high torque
reactions.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
u
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by
hand.
Before any work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
u
tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and stor-
age, set the rotational direction switch to the middle
position. There is risk of injury from unintentionally
pressing the on/off switch.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a com-
u
plete stop before placing it down. The application tool
can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-
u
pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-
plode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical
attention should you experience any adverse effects. The
vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-
u
ing.
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such
u
as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.
An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to
burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

Only use the battery with products from the manufac-
u
turer. This is the only way in which you can protect the
battery against dangerous overload.
Protect the power tool against heat, e.g.
against continuous intense sunlight, fire,
water, and moisture. There is a risk of explo-
sion.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water
and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and
short-circuiting.
Connect the power tool to a mains supply that is prop-
u
erly connected to earth. The socket and extension cable
must have a fully functioning protective conductor.
Products sold in GB only:
Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric
plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an au-
thorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
Application tools can become hot during operation.
u
There is a risk of burns when changing the application
tool. Use protective gloves to remove the application
tool.
Caution! When using the power tool with Bluetooth
u
fault may occur in other devices and systems, aero-
planes and medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, hearing
aids). Also, damage to people and animals in the im-
mediate vicinity cannot be completely excluded. Do
not use the power tool with Bluetooth
medical devices, petrol stations, chemical plants,
areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere or in
