battery pack is being charged. The temperature of
the battery pack may rise slightly during the
charging operation. This is normal.
Important! The battery charger does not
switch off automatically when the battery is
fully charged.
If the battery pack fails to become charged, please
check
n
whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
n
whether there is proper contact at the charging
contacts on the charger.
If the battery still fails to become charged, please
return
n
the charger
n
the battery pack
to our Customer Service Department.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long service,
you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must
recharge the battery pack when you notice that the
power of the cordless screwdriver drops.
Never fully discharge the battery pack. This will cause
it to develop a defect!
6.2 Torque setting (Fig. 4 / Item 1)
The cordless screwdriver is fitted with a mechanical
torque selector.
The torque for a specific size of screw is selected
with the set-collar (1). The correct torque depends on
several factors:
n
on the type and hardness of material in question
n
on the type and length screws used
n
on the requirements needing to be met by the
screwed joint.
The clutch disengages with a grating sound to
indicate when the set torque is reached.
Important! The tool must be at a standstill when
you set the torque with the setting ring.
6.3 Drilling (Fig. 4 / Item 1)
For drilling purposes, move the set-collar to the last
step „Drill“. In this setting the slip clutch is inactive.
The maximum torque is available in drilling mode.
6.4 Forward/Reverse switch (Fig. 5 / Item 3)
With the slide switch above the On/Off switch you
can select the direction of rotation of the battery-
powered drill/screwdriver and secure it against being
switched on accidentally. You can choose between
clockwise and anticlockwise rotation. To avoid
causing damage to the gearing it is advisable to
change the direction of rotation only when the tool is
at a standstill. The On/Off switch is blocked when the
slide switch is in centre position.
6.5 On/Off switch (Fig. 5 / Item 4)
Infinitely variable speed control is possible with the
On/Off switch. The further you press the switch, the
higher the speed of the battery-powered
drill/screwdriver.
6.6 Changing the tool (Fig. 6)
Important.
Set the changeover switch (3) to its
centre position whenever you carry out any work (for
example changing the tool, maintenance work, etc.)
on the cordless screwdriver.
n
Open the chuck (2). The chuck opening (a) must
be large enough to hold the tool (drill bit or
screwdriver bit).
n
Select the suitable tool. Push the tool as far as
possible into the chuck opening (a).
n
Tighten the chuck (2) and then check that the
tool is secure.
6.7 Screwdriving
We recommend using self-centering screws (e.g.
Torx screws, recessed head screws) designed for
reliable working. Be sure to use a bit that matches
the screw in shape and size. Set the torque, as
described elsewhere in these operating instructions,
to suit the size of screw.
7. Cleaning and maintenance
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
n
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
n
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
n
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts
of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.
7.2 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
