Wear hearing protection!
The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with anoth-
er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This
may significantly increase the exposure level over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.
Assembly
Battery Charging
Note:
The battery supplied is partially charged. To ensure full
capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using your power tool for the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without re-
ducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the
machine has been automatically switched off.
The bat-
tery can be damaged.
Removing the battery
The battery
12
is equipped with two locking levels that should
prevent the battery from falling out when pushing the battery
unlocking button
13
unintentionally. As long as the battery is
inserted in the power tool, it is held in position by means of a
spring.
To remove the battery
12
, press the unlocking button
13
and
pull out the battery toward the front.
Do not exert any force.
Auxiliary Handle
Operate your machine only with the auxiliary handle 4.
Before performing any work, make sure that the auxil-
iary handle is firmly tightened.
Loss of control can lead
to injury.
Mounting the Auxiliary Handle
To open the auxiliary handle, turn the bottom part of the aux-
iliary handle
4
in counterclockwise direction.
Pull back the intermediate piece of the auxiliary handle
5
and
hold it in this position. Slide the auxiliary handle over the drill
chuck to mount the auxiliary handle on the power tool. Then
let go of the intermediate piece
5
.
Afterwards, tighten the bottom part of the auxiliary handle
4
again by turning in clockwise direction.
Changing the position of the auxiliary handle
The auxiliary handle
4
can be set to any position for a secure
and low-fatigue working posture.
