5. Before starting the equipment
Be sure to read the following information before you
use your cordless screwdriver for the first time:
1.
Charge the battery pack only with the charger
supplied.
2. Only ever use sharp drill bits and screwdriver bits
which are suitable for the purpose and in
faultless condition.
3. Always check for concealed electric cables and
gas and water pipes when drilling and screwing
in walls.
6. Operation
6.1 Charging the LI battery pack (Fig. 2/3)
1.
Take the rechargeable battery pack out of the
handle (Fig. 2), pressing the pushlock buttons at
the side to do so.
2.
Check that your mains voltage is the same as that
marked on the rating plate of the battery charger.
Plug the battery charger in the socket.
3. The green LED will come on. Insert the battery
pack in the battery charger. Now the rot LED will
come on to indicate that the battery pack is being
charged. When the charging period is completed
after approx. 1 hour, the green LED will come on
again. The temperature of the battery pack may
rise during the charging operation. This is
normal.
If the battery pack fails to become charged, please
check
whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
whether there is proper contact at the charging
contacts on the charger.
If the battery still fails to become charged, please
return
the charger
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:
on the type and hardness of material in question
on the type and length screws used
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 over from 1st gear to 2nd gear
(Fig. 6 / Item 7)
You can work at a higher or lower speed depending
on the position of the selector switch. To avoid
damaging the gear unit you should only change over
gears when the tool has stopped.
6.7 Changing the tool (Fig. 7)
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.
The cordless screwdriver is fitted with a quick-
action chuck (2) with an automatic spindle stop.
Open the chuck (2). The chuck opening (a) must
be large enough to hold the tool (drill bit or
