11. Never throw the accumulator block into water or a fire – it may explode.
12. Turn the drill immediately off after the screw is fastened. Overloading and damaging the
battery or motor can be prevented this way. Use the torque to loosen the fastened screw.
Inserting and removing bits
Fig. 1 + 7
The bits can easily be placed directly into the bit holder or on the extension piece. The
extension piece can be used for screws that are difficult to reach.
Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.
Firmly hold the machine and ferm the bit with even pressure into the workpiece. Do not force
the machine. Use only bits that do not yet show any signs of wear. Worn bits have a negative
effect on the efficiency of the machine.
Locking the screwdriver
Fig. 8
The screwdriver is fitted with an automatic spindle lock feature. When the On/Off switch (2) is
not pressed, the spindle is locked. Now it is possible to use the screwdriver (even when the
battery is empty) as a manual tool.
Screwdriving
Fig. 1
To switch the tool on, press the On/Off switch (2).
-
Press the tumbler switch (R) for clockwise rotation (tightening screws)
-
Press the tumbler switch (L) for counterclockwise rotation (loosening screws)
To switch the tool off, release the on/off switch.
User tips for optimum use
•
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line with the screw and always use
the correct type and size of bit.
•
If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small amount of washing liquid or soap as a
lubricant (Fig. 9).
•
Use the spindle lock feature to loosen very tight screws or to firmly tighten screws.
•
When screwing in wood, it is recommended to drill a hole with a depth equal to almost the
length of the screw. A pilot hole guides the screw and prevents splintering or distortion of
the work piece.
