Direction Control; Switching On/Off; Service - Westfalia ASS 18 BL Original Instructions Manual

Direction Control

WARNING: Never change the direction of rotation while the tool is
running. This may cause permanent damage to the tool.
The direction of rotation can be set with the forward/reverse switch (5).
1. For anti-clockwise rotation, push the switch to the right.
2. For clockwise rotation, push the switch to the left.
Note: When the forward/reverse switch (5) is in the central position, the
impact driver is locked and cannot be switched on. Use this setting as a
safety feature to prevent the impact driver from being switched on
accidentally.

Switching ON/OFF

WARNING: Always wear adequate personal protection equipment
when setting up and operating this machine.
To start the impact driver, squeeze the trigger switch (6). The work
light (4) turns on for as long as the trigger switch (6) remains pressed.
Note: If the trigger switch cannot be pressed down, check that the
forward/reverse switch (5) is not set to its middle position, which locks
the device (see 'Direction Control').
 The speed of the impact driver is controlled by the movement of the
trigger: the further the trigger switch is pressed down, the faster the
impact driver will run.
 Release the trigger switch to stop the machine.
WARNING: If the power tool gets excessively hot in use, stop using the
tool immediately and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling
period can be reduced by operating the impact driver at maximum
speed with no load. Always make sure the motor vents (3) are not
blocked and do not allow dust to enter the tool body through the motor
vents; dust, especially metallic dust, may damage or destroy the tool.

Service

WARNING: Always disconnect from the mains power supply, before
carrying out any maintenance/ cleaning of the charger. Remove the
battery before carrying out any maintenance/cleaning of the tool.
