Safety Instructions and Accident Prevention

WARNING! When using battery-driven tools basic safety precautions are to be taken, including the following, in order to reduce the risk of fire, batteries leaking and persons becoming injured.

Before operating the machine, please read through the operating instructions completely, follow the Safety Instructions in this manual as well as the general Safety Instructions for Power Tools in the accompanying booklet.

Important instructions, which should be read before starting operation, and which we strongly recommend observing:

• For charging the batteries, only use a charger which is recommended by the manufacturer and never use the recommended charger to charge other electrical equipment.
• Never carry the tool with your finger on the switch.
• Before any work on the machine itself, remove the battery.
• Do not use any defective or deformed batteries.
• Any machines and batteries that are not being used should be kept separately in a dry place that is high up or locked, out of the reach of children. For safety's sake, a battery charger connected to the mains should also be permanently supervised.
• Do not expose the machine, battery and battery charger to rain. Do not use the machines in a wet or damp environment.
• Always keep the battery and battery charger clean and dry.
• Do not open the battery and protect from impact.

• Protect the battery from heat and fire: Danger of explosion! Do not place the battery on radiators or expose to strong sun rays for a longer time; temperatures over 50^ cause damage.

• In extreme conditions battery fluid can leak out. This does not mean it is defective. If in such a case the casing is no longer sealed and battery fluid comes into contact with the skin, proceed as follows:

• Wash affected skin immediately with soap and water.
• Neutralise the battery fluid with vinegar or lemon juice.
• If the eyes are affected, rinse with clear water with at least 10 minutes. Consult a doctor immediately!
• Before connecting the charger to the mains, please check that the voltage of your mains connection corresponds to the voltage stated on the nameplate of the charger.
• Always inspect the plug and cable before use. If damaged, they must be replaced by a qualified professional.
• Caution - High voltage: Do not open the battery charger!
• Ensure that the connection between the battery charger and battery is correctly positioned and is not obstructed by foreign bodies.
• Keep battery charger slot free of foreign objects and protect against dirt and humidity. Store in a dry and frost-free place.
• When the battery is outside the battery charger, cover battery terminals to avoid short circuits from metal objects. Danger of fire or explosion results when shorted by a metal object!
• Do not charge batteries of other manufacturers. Only use genuine Kress accessories.
• Observe notes on environmental protection.
• When drilling or screwing in walls, they must be checked for hidden electric cables or water and gas pipes with a detector.
• Do not work with materials containing asbestos!
• Do not drill holes into the housing to label the machine. The protective insulation will be bridged. Please use self-adhesive labels.
• Protect the cables of the battery charger from sharp edges. Damaged cables must be replaced immediately by one of our service depots.
• For safety reasons, work only with the auxiliary handle 10 mounted.
• Wear protective glasses, hearing protection, protective gloves and sturdy shoes.
• When the drill unexpectedly jams, the machine kicks back. Therefore, always take a secure stance and hold the machine firmly with both hands.

• Important! Batteries will discharge even if the tool is not used. They should therefore be re-charged regularly.
  Or better still - connect the battery to the mains charger which will automatically switch to maintenance charging after the battery has been fully charged. This is particularly useful for maintenance and for the optimal operational readiness of the batteries.
• Do not leave the battery in the charger if the latter is not in operating condition.

To ensure long service life, the batteries should always be charged in good time. This is particularly important if you notice a reduction in power output.

1. Remove battery 9 from the handle by simultaneously pressing the locking device 8.
2. Make sure that the mains voltage complies with the voltage on the name-plate on the charger. Connect charger plug to mains.
3. Push battery into battery until it snaps into place.

Battery charging unit type: CLG 120

Use as Intended

The device is only designed for charging Kress batteries with a voltage of 24V

Both NiCd batteries and NiMH batteries can be charged.

Charging Procedure

The quick, computerised battery charger has an extensive function for monitoring the battery and charging parameters and charges the battery with the optimum quick-charging current in each case, depending upon the temperature. This enables the shortest charging times and a long battery service life.

Fully insert the battery into the charging slot until it is heard and/or felt to notch. For removing the battery, press both lock-release buttons until the battery can be taken out of the battery charger without any resistance. Do not exert any force!

After completion of the quick charging process, the charging unit switches automatically to trickle charging. This compensates for the natural self-discharging of the battery.

Display and Key

Constant green indicator light: The charging unit is correctly connected to the power mains and is ready for operation. No battery is inserted in the charging cavity or it is not making contact.

Blinking green indicator light: The battery is making contact and quick charging is in progress.

Constant green indicator light: The quick charging process has ended and the charging unit has switched to trickle charging. The battery is completely charged and can be removed.

Rapid flashing green indicator light: The battery temperature is outside the allowable range. The charging process begins as soon as the battery temperature is again within the prescribed temperature range.

The battery is defective or there is a short between the charging contacts.

• Remove the battery from the battery charger.
• Pull out the mains plug!
• Check the charging slot for foreign bodies.

No light: Mains voltage missing.

If the batteries cannot be charged correctly:

1. Make sure the socket is providing voltage.
2. Make sure the charging points provide good contact.
3. Should charging still not be possible, please send the battery and battery charger to our nearest service centre.

Notes for the correct use of the battery:

• To obtain the maximum service life, do not recharge the battery immediately after a short period of use but, if possible, discharge to the lower capacity limit and then recharge.
• Avoid to the extent possible the blocking of the machine. The resulting excessive current flow leads to quick discharging and increased wear of the battery.
• An increasingly shorter operating time per recharging of the battery is an indication that the battery is worn out and must be replaced.

Do not carry out any repair on the charger yourself!

As a basic rule, return the faulty machine to our next customer service centre (also in the case of defective mains cables)!

8 Putting into Operation

Convince yourself before using that the battery is securely seated in the machine.

SWITCHING ON/OFF

Press or release the On/Off switch 6.

DRILLING - IMPACT DRILLING

For drilling, place the selector 4 in the position.

For impact drilling, set to

The switch-over can best be performed at a standstill. Only after the On/Off switch 6 is actuated and the machine starts does the gear box shift to the selected mode.

Note: Left rotation when impact drilling damages the drill. Switch off the impact mechanism for diamond crown drilling or for mixing work.

When hammer drilling, use exclusively drills with hard metal inserts and SDS-Plus shafts. The use of commercially available masonry drills with cylindrical shafts by means of the adapter 18 and the normal drill chuck in conjunction with the pneumatic impact mechanism is not possible.

SPEED CONTROL

With the On/Off switch 6, the speed can be continuously varied. With light pressure on the On/Off switch 6, the machine begins to rotate slowly; with increased pressure, the speed increases.

ROTATIONAL DIRECTION SWITCHING

Operate the rotational direction switch 7 only when the machine is at a standstill!

Take hold of the rotational direction switch 7 on both sides.

Right rotation: Set the rotational direction switch 7 to “R”.

Left rotation: Set the rotational direction switch 7 to "L".

Important! Press the rotational direction switch 7 in each case to the stop on the housing, i. e. until it can be felt to engage.

If the rotational direction switch 7 is set between the positions "R" and "L", the machine cannot be switched on.

9 Inserting/Removing Tools

The tool holder 1 clamps the drilling tools without using a tool key.

INSERTING TOOLS

Before all work on the machine itself, always set the rotational direction switch 7 to the middle position.

Clean and lightly grease the tool shaft.

Pull back the unlocking collar 3. Insert the tool while turning into the tool holder until it latches. Release the unlocking collar. Check whether the tool is firmly seated.

Take care that the dust protection cap 2 is not damaged.

Replace damaged dust protection caps!

REMOVING TOOLS

Slide the unlocking collar 3 to the rear and pull out the tool.

10 Drill Chuck (Accessory)

For drilling work in metal, wood and plastic with drills that have normal shafts, a drill chuck (13 mm max. chuck opening) is available. The drill chuck is mounted on the adapter (accessory) for screwdriver bits. All common drill chucks with 1/2'' × 20 UNF internal threads (13 mm max. chuck opening) can be used.

MOUNTING THE CHUCK

Before all work on the machine itself, always set the rotational direction switch 7 to the middle position.

Clean the threads of the drill chuck (accessory) and the adapter 18 (see accessory). Screw the drill chuck onto the adapter and tighten firmly (approx. 30Nm ). Clamp in a vise for tightening the adapter, for example. Clamp an Allen key in the drill chuck and use it to tighten the chuck. Then lock the adapter in the tool holder the same as a drill.

11 Practical Tips

Do not drill into hidden electrical lines or gas and water pipes. Check the area to be worked with a metal detector, for example, before starting.

For metal, use only flawless, sharpened drills; for stone and concrete, only masonry drills with hard metal inserts.

Always adapt the speed to the material to be worked and the diameter of the drill. For precision working with metal and wood, place the machine in a drill stand (accessory).

HAMMER- DRILLING

Wear protective glasses and hearing protection.

Do not apply to much pressure. The performance is not increased in this manner.

For hammer drilling, work only with protective glasses, hearing protection and the auxiliary handle 10. Check before putting into operation if the shift knob 4 is latched in the position.

DRILLING IN TILES

Start drilling slowly on the tile. After the tile is drilled through, switch to impact drilling.

SCREWDRIVING

Screwdriver bits can be inserted into the adapter 18 (see accessory). Commercially available bits with a hexagonal dimension of 6.3mm or 1/4 (DIN 3126, Form C) can be used.

The screwdriver bits are held in the adapter with a spring ring. Therefore, use only bits with a notch.

12 Slip Clutch

If the drilling tool become jammed or get caught, the slip clutch releases.

Remove the load from the machine immediately by pulling back the drilling tool.

Always hold the machine tightly with both hands and assume a secure stance.

13 Maintenance Measures

Before all work on the machine itself, always set the rotational direction switch 7 to the middle position.

Always keep the ventilation slots clean.

Wipe off the accessible plastic parts regularly with a cloth without cleaning agent.

After heavy use over a long period, the machine should be taken to a Kress service location for an inspection and thorough cleaning.

14 Environmental Protection

Kress takes back worn-out machines for the purpose of resource-saving recycling. As a result of their modular construction, Kress machines can be very easily dismantled into their reusable materials.

Defective rechargeable batteries must be recycled according to the Guidelines 91/157/EEC.

Do not throw used batteries in household waste, in fire or in water.

Do not open battery and dispose of it through the available collection points.

Do not place the battery on any heated surface or expose it to strong sunlight for a longer period of time. Do not expose the battery to temperatures over 50^ .

Give your worn-out Kress machine to your dealer or send it directly to Kress.
