Use
Change direction of rotation/unlock
appliance
♦ Unlock the appliance and change the direction
of rotation by pressing the rotation direction
switch towards the left or right.
Switching on and off
Switching on:
♦ To start the appliance, press the ON/OFF
switch and keep it pressed in. The LED work-
ing light lights up when the ON/OFF switch
is depressed lightly or fully. This provides
illumination of the work area in poor lighting
conditions.
Switching off:
♦ Release the ON/OFF switch to switch off the
appliance.
Adjusting the rotational speed
The ON/OFF switch has a variable speed con-
trol. Press the ON/OFF switch lightly for a low
speed. Increasing the pressure increases the speed.
NOTE
► The integrated motor brake ensures rapid
stoppage.
Activate lock
♦ Push the rotation direction switch into the
middle position. The ON/OFF switch is
blocked.
Tips and tricks
Tip! This symbol indicates proper
behaviour.
♦ Before operating the appliance, check whether
the screw or drill bit is correctly positioned, i.e.
centred in the drill chuck.
♦ Screw bits are labelled according to their di-
mensions and their shape. If you are uncertain,
always check whether the bit fits tightly in the
screw head without any free play.
Torque:
♦ Smaller screws/bits can be damaged if you set
the torque or rotational speed too high.
Hard screw joints (in metal):
♦ Particularly high torques occur, for example, in
metal screw joints made using drive sockets.
Select a low rotational speed.
Soft screw joints (e.g. in soft wood):
♦ Again, use a low rotational speed, for example
to avoid damaging the surface of the wood on
contact with the screw head. Use a countersink.
When drilling in wood, metal and other mate-
rials, observe the following:
♦ Use a high speed for drill bits with a small
diameter and a low speed for drill bits with a
large diameter.
♦ Select a low speed for hard materials and a
high speed for soft materials.
♦ Secure or fasten the workpiece in a clamp or
vice (if possible).
♦ Mark the spot where you want to drill using a
centre punch or nail. Select a low rotational
speed when starting.
♦ Pull the rotating drill bit from the hole repeatedly
to remove dust and chips and clear the hole.
