Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations

and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual

risks can not be avoided. These include:

u Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving

parts.

u Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or

accessories.

u Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When

using any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take

regular breaks.

u Impairment of hearing.

u Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed

when using your tool (example:- working with wood,

especially oak, beech and MDF.)

Use

Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.

Charging the battery

The battery needs to be charged before rst use and whenever

it fails to produce sufcient power on jobs that were easily

done before. When charging the battery for the rst time, or

after prolonged storage, it will only accept an 80% charge.

After several charge and discharge cycles, the battery will

attain full capacity. The battery may become warm while

charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.

Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures

below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging

temperature: approx. 24 °C.

Chargerwithchargerreceptacle(g.C)

u To charge the battery (5), remove it from the tool and slide

the charger receptacle (8) onto the battery.

u Plug in the charger (7).

After normal use, a charging time of 3 hours will provide

sufcient power for most applications. However, further

charging for up to 6 hours could signicantly increase the use

time, depending on the battery and charging conditions.

u Remove the battery from the charger.

Chargerwithchargerplug(g.D)

u To charge the battery, make sure that it is tted on the

tool.

u Insert the charger plug (10) into the connector (9).

u Plug in the charger (7).

u Switch on at the mains.

After normal use, a charging time of 3 hours will provide

sufcient power for most applications. However, further

charging for up to 6 hours could signicantly increase the use

time, depending on the battery and charging conditions.

u Disconnect the tool from the charger.

Warning! Do not use the tool while it is connected to the charger.

Selecting the direction of rotation

For drilling and for tightening screws, use forward (clockwise)

rotation. For loosening screws or removing a jammed drill bit,

use reverse (counterclockwise) rotation.

u To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

(2) to the left.

u To select reverse rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

to the right.

u To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse slider into the

centre position.

Selectingtheoperatingmodeortorque(g.G)

This tool is tted with a collar to select the operating mode and

to set the torque for tightening screws. Large screws and hard

workpiece materials require a higher torque setting than small

screws and soft workpiece materials. The collar has a wide

range of settings to suit your application.

u For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar (3) to

the drilling position by aligning the symbol with the

marking (16).

u For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting.

If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as

follows:

- Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.

- Tighten the rst screw.

- If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is

achieved, increase the collar setting and continue

tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct

setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.

Switching on and off

Variable speed switch

u To switch the tool on, press the variable speed switch (1).

The tool speed depends on how far you press the switch.

u To switch the tool off, release the variable speed switch.

Hints for optimum use

Drilling

u Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the drill

bit.

u Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of the

workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.

u Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may splinter.

u Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in wood.

u Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.

u Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.

u Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron

and brass.
