Operating Instructions
7. USING THE LED LIGHT
The sight light allows you to keep a clear view under less illuminated circumstances. To
turn on the light simply press the on/off switch. When you release the on/off switch, the
light will be off.
8. DRILLING
When drilling into a hard smooth surface, use a center punch to mark the desired hole
location. This will prevent the drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started. Hold
the tool firmly and place the tip of the bit at the point to be drilled. Depress the switch
trigger to start the tool. Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough
pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.
Tungsten carbide drill bits should always be used for concrete and masonry.
When drilling in metal, only use HSS drill bits in good condition. Always use a
magnetic bit holder (not included) when using short screwdriver bits. When screw-
driving, apply a small quantity of liquid soap or similar to the screw threads to ease
insertion.
9. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY PACK
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of the battery pack properly.
This battery pack contains Lithium batteries. Consult your local waste authority for
information regarding available recycling and/or disposal options. Discharge your
battery pack by operating your drill, then remove the battery pack from the drill housing
and cover the battery pack connections with heavy-duty adhesive tape to prevent short
circuit and energy discharge. Do not attempt to open or remove any of the components.
10. OVERLOAD PROTECTION
When overloaded, the motor comes to a stop. Relieve the load on the tool immediately
and allow cooling for approx. 30 seconds at the highest no-load speed.
11. TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT OVERLOAD PROTECTION
When using as intended for the power tool cannot be subject to overload. When the load
is too high or the allowable battery temperature of 75°C is exceeded, the electronic
control switches off the power tool until the temperature is in the
optimum temperature range again.
12. PROTECTION AGAINST DEEP DISCHARGING
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Discharging Protection
System”. When the battery is
empty, the tool is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no
longer rotates.
