• Explanation of symbols on charger/battery

3 Read the instruction manual before use

4 Only use the charger indoors

5 Double insulation (no earth wire required)

6 Fail-safe isolating transformer (the power source is

electrically separated from the transformer output)

7 Do not dispose of the charger together with

household waste material

8 Do not dispose of the battery together with

household waste material

WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):

• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire

in the cord of the charger to the earth terminal of the

plug

• If for any reason the old plug is cut off the cord of the

charger, it must be disposed of safely and not left

unattended

USE

• Charging battery 9

- battery of new tools is not fully charged

- after approximately 1 hour the battery is fully charged

(2497)

- after approximately 1/2 hour the battery is fully

charged and green light G stays on after blinking, at

which time the charger automatically switches to

maintenance-charging (2597)

! remove battery from charger after charging

period has ended thereby lengthening the service

life of the battery

IMPORTANT:

- if red light H turns on, this indicates that the battery

is too cold or too hot (charger only charges batteries

when its temperature is between 0°C and 45°C); the

charger then automatically switches to maintenance-

charging, until a temperature between 0°C and 45°C

is reached, at which time the charger will

automatically switch to normal charging (2597)

- if red light H starts blinking, this indicates that the

battery should be cleaned or replaced (2597)

- while charging, the charger and the battery may

become warm to touch; this is normal and does not

indicate a problem

- ensure that the outside surface of the battery is clean

and dry before inserting into charger

- do not charge at temperatures below 0°C and over

40°C; this will seriously damage the battery as well

as the charger

- do not remove battery from tool while it is running

! a battery that is new or has not been used for a

longer period does not develop its full capacity

until after approximately 5 charging/discharging

cycles

- do not repeatedly recharge the battery after only a

few minutes of operation; this may result in a

reduction of operating time and battery efﬁ ciency

- the nickel-cadmium battery must be kept separate

from the natural environment and should not be

disposed of as normal domestic waste (symbol 8

will remind you of this when the need for disposing

occurs)

! prior to disposal protect battery terminals with

heavy tape to prevent short-circuit

- if you anticipate long periods of non-use for the tool,

it is best to unplug the charger from its power source

• On/off 0

• Speed control for smooth starting !

• Changing direction of rotation @

- when not properly set in left/right position, switch

A 2 cannot be activated

! change direction of rotation only when tool is at a

complete standstill

• Changing bits #

- insert the bit as deep as possible in the chuck

! do not use bits with a damaged shank

• Torque control (VariTorque) $

- limits the amount of output torque delivered by the

chuck (17 clutch settings)

- when turning in a screw, ﬁ rst try VariTorque position 1

and increase until the desired depth has been

reached

• 2 Mechanical speeds %

- set switch E to desired speed

! change speed while tool is running slowly

1 = HIGH POWER

- high torque

- for screwdriving and drilling large diameters

- for tapping thread

2 = HIGH SPEED

- lower torque

- for drilling small diameters

- for impact drilling

• Adjusting drilling depth ^

• Holding and guiding the tool &

- always use auxiliary handle F 2 (can be adjusted

as illustrated)

- keep the ventilation slots uncovered

- do not apply too much pressure on the tool; let the

tool do the work for you

APPLICATION ADVICE

• Use the appropriate bits *

! only use sharp bits

• When drilling ferrous metals

- pre-drill a smaller hole, when a large hole is required

- lubricate drill bit occasionally with oil

• When turning in a screw at/near the cross cut end or an

edge of wood, pre-drill a hole in order to avoid cracking

of the wood

• For an optimal use of the tool a steady pressure on the

screw is required, especially while removing

• When screwdriving in hard wood one should pre-drill a

hole

• Splinterfree drilling in wood (
