Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool . Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication . A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury .
• Use personal protective equipment . Always wear eye
protection . Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries .
• Prevent unintentional starting . Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool . Carrying
power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents .
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on . A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury .
• Do not overreach . Keep proper footing and balance at
all times . This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations .
• Dress properly . Do not wear loose clothing or jewel-
lery . Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from mov-
ing parts . Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts .
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used . Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards .
Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool . Use the correct power tool
for your application . The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed .
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off . Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired .
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power tools .
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of start-
ing the power tool accidentally .
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool . Power tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users .
• Maintain power tools . Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation .
If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use .
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools .
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean . Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control .
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc . in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed .
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation .
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts . This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained .
SAFETY WARNINGS FOR DRILLS
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling . Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss .
• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool . Loss of
control can cause personal injury .
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord . Cutting ac-
cessory contacting a “live” 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 utility lines are
hidden in the work area or call the local utility company
for assistance . Contact with electric lines can lead to fire
and electric shock . Damaging a gas line can lead to ex-
plosion . Penetrating a water line causes property dam-
age or may cause an electric shock .
• Switch off the power tool immediately when the
tool insert jams . Be prepared for high reaction torque
that can cause kickback . The tool insert jams when:
– the power tool is subject to overload
– it becomes wedged in the workpiece .
• Hold the machine with a firm grip . High reaction torque
can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws .
• When working with the machine, always hold it firm-
ly with both hands and provide for a secure stance . The
power tool is guided more secure with both hands .
• Secure the workpiece . A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than
by hand .
• Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down . The tool insert can jam and
lead to loss of control over the power tool .
OPERATION
Turning On/Off
• Connect the power plug to a designated outlet;
• Press and hold the On/Off button (8) to turn the ma-
chine on;
• To turn the machine off, let go of the On/Off button .
Gear selection switch
Do not set the gear selection switch during drilling . With
the gear selection switch, two different rotation speed
ranges can be set .
Gear 1:
Low rotation speed range, intended for working with
