- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping
or blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush.
Transport of li-ion battery packs:
The shipping of li-ion battery pack is subject to laws
related to the carriage of hazardous goods (UN
3480 and UN 3481). Inform yourself of the currently
valid specifications when shipping li-ion battery
packs. If necessary, consult your freight forwarder.
Certified packaging is available from Metabo.
Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact
and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack
from the machine for sending. Prevent the contacts
from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with
adhesive tape).

6.1 The machine's multifunctional monitoring
system
If the machine switches off automatically, the
machine electronics have activated automatic
protection mode. A warning signal sounds
(continuous beeping). The beeping stops after a
maximum of 30 seconds or when the trigger is
released (10).
In spite of this protective function, overloading
is still possible with certain applications and
can result in damage to the machine.
Causes and remedies:
1. Battery pack almost flat (the electronics
prevent the battery pack from discharging totally
and avoid irreparable damage).
If the battery pack is almost flat, it must be
recharged.
2. Long continuous overloading of the machine will
activate the temperature cut-out .
Leave the machine or battery pack to cool.
Note: The machine will cool more quickly if you
operate it at idling speed.
3. If the current is too high (for example, if the
machine seizes continuously for long periods),
the machine switches off.
Switch off the machine at the trigger (10). Then
continue working as normal. Try to prevent the
machine from seizing.
6.2 Battery pack
Charge the battery pack before use.
If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.
Removing the battery pack
Press the battery pack release (11) button and
remove the battery pack (12).
To fit
Slide in the battery back (12) until it engages .
6.3 Setting the direction of rotation,
engaging the transporting safety device
(switch-on lock)
Do not activate rotation selector switch (9)
unless the motor has completely stopped!
Actuate the rotation selector switch (direction of
rotation setting, transporting safety device) (9).
See page 2.
R = Clockwise setting
L = Counter-clockwise setting
0 = Middle position: transportation safety device
(Switch-on lock) set
6.4 Selecting gear stage
1st gear (low speed,
particularly high torque, preferable for
screwing)
2nd gear (high speed, preferable for drilling)
6.5 Set torque limitation, screw driving,
drilling, impact drill
Machines with the designation BS...
1...20 = Set torque (with torque limitation) by
turning the sleeve (3) - intermediate
settings are also possible.
= Set drilling by turning the sleeve (3) (max.
torque, without torque limitation)
To avoid overloading the motor, do not
jam the spindle.
Machines with the designation SB...:
= Set screw driving by turning the sleeve
