Removing the battery (see figure A)

u Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only

these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of

your power tool.

Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure

full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger

before using your power tool for the first time.

The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without

reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging process

does not damage the battery.

The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge

by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". A protective circuit

switches the cordless dust extractor off when the battery is

drained.

u Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the

power tool has automatically switched off. The battery

can be damaged.

To remove the battery (8), press the release buttons (7) and

pull the battery downwards out of the power tool. Do not

use force to do this.

Follow the instructions on correct disposal.

Changing the tool (see figure B)

The drill spindle is locked when the on/off switch (10) is not

pressed. This makes it possible to change the application

tool in the drill chuck quickly, conveniently and easily.

Open the keyless chuck (2) by turning it in the direction of

rotation  until the tool can be inserted. Insert the tool.

Firmly tighten the keyless chuck (2) by turning it by hand in

the direction of rotation . You will hear an audible click

from the GSB. The drill chuck is locked automatically.

The lock will disengage again if you turn the sleeve in the op-

posite direction to remove the tool.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some

wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one’s

health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic

reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or

bystanders.

Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carci-

nogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment ad-

ditives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing

asbestos may only be worked by specialists.

– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.

– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the ma-

terials to be worked.

u Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can

easily ignite.

Operation

Starting Operation

Inserting the battery

Note: The use of batteries unsuitable for your power tool can

lead to malfunctions or damage to the power tool.

Set the rotational direction switch (6) to the middle position

to avoid unintentionally switching it on. Insert the charged

battery (8) into the handle until you feel it engage and it is

flush with the handle.

Setting the rotational direction (see figureC)

The rotational direction switch (6) is used to change the ro-

tational direction of the power tool. However, this is not pos-

sible while the on/off switch (10) is being pressed.

Right rotation: To drill and to drive in screws, press the ro-

tational direction switch (6) through to the left stop.

Left Rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts,

press the rotational direction switch (6) through to the right

stop.

Preselecting the Torque

The torque presetting ring (3) can be used to preselect the

used, the application tool will be stopped when the screw is

driven flush into the material or once the set torque has been

reached. In position the overload clutch is deactivated,

e.g. for drilling.

When unscrewing screws, you can select a higher setting or

set the tool to the symbol.
