6 Special Product Features

The battery-powered impact screwdriver is characterised above all by low-recoil work at high torques. This hardly perceptible reaction force is achieved by means of a rotary percussion mechanism designed for left and right rotation.

7 Initial Operation/Setting

Remove the battery pack from the machine before any adjustment or maintenance is

carried out. Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the machine is switched off.

7.1 Battery pack

Charge the battery pack before use (8).

If performance diminishes, recharge the battery pack.

The ideal storage temperature is between 10^ C and 40^ C.

"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and signal indicator: (11)

• Press the (10) button, the LEDs indicate the charge level.
• If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost flat and must be recharged.

Removal:

Press the battery pack release (9) button and pull the battery pack (8) forwards.

Inserting:

Slide in the battery pack (8) until it engages.

7.2 Setting the direction of rotation, engaging the transporting safety device (switch-on lock)

Do not actuate the rotation selector switch or engage the transportation lock (4) unless the motor has stopped completely!

Actuate the rotational direction switch / Engage the transportation lock (4)

R = Right rotation set (insert screws)

L = Left rotation set (remove screws)

0 = Central position: transportation lock setting (switch-on lock)

7.3 Switching on and off

To switch on: press the trigger switch (5).

Switching off: Release the trigger (5).

7.4 Speed / Tightening torque

The speed and tightening torque are connected directly. The lower the speed, the lower the tightening torque.

The tightening torque is influenced in two ways:

1) Preselect maximum tightening torque.

You can select one of three tightening torque settings by pressing the button (7). The maximum tightening torques are listed in the table on page 2 ( M_max.,I , M_max.,II , M_max.,III ).

Button (7) lights up briefly to indicate which setting is selected. For example: if the button lights up twice, this means that setting II is selected.

2) Stepless adjustment of the tightening torque:

The speed and tightening torque can be adjusted steplessly by pressing the trigger (5) firmly or lightly, thus adapting to working conditions.

Recommendation: determine the correct setting by carrying out trial screwdriving.

7.5 Changing SSD... screwdriving bits

Inserting screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve (3) forward and insert screwdriving bit as far as the stop. Release locking sleeve (3).

Pull on the screwdriver bit to check that it is correctly seated.

Removing screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve (3) forward and remove screwdriving bit.

Only use screwdriving bits with such plug-in ends:

9,5 mm (3/8")

The screwdriving bit used must match the screw.

Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.

7.6 Changing SSW... screwdriving bits

Inserting screwdriving bit: Insert the socket all the way into the square attachment (1).

Removing screwdriving bit: Pull the socket out of the square attachment (1).

The screwdriving bit used must match the screw.

Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.

8 Use

Mount the machine on the screw, ensuring it is aligned straight.

The screwdriving process has two elements: inserting the screw and tightening the screw with the percussion mechanism.

The tightening torque depends on the impact duration.

With an impact duration of approx. 5 seconds, the maximum tightening torque has been reached.

The torque curve depends on the type of application:

With a hard screwdriving application (screw-couplings in hard material such as metal), maximum tightening torque is already reached after a short impact duration (a).

With a soft screwdriving application (screw-couplings in soft material such as wood), a longer impact duration (b) is required.

Recommendation: determine the correct impact duration by carrying out trial screwdriving.

Caution! With small screws, maximum torque can be reached even below an impact duration of 0.5 seconds.

• This is why the duration of the screwdriving process must be monitored exactly.
• Select a suitable maximum tightening torque on button (7) (see chapter 7.4).
• Adjust the tightening torque by pressing firmly or lightly on the trigger (5), ensuring that the screw is not damaged or that the screw head does not tear off.

Vibration total value (vector sum of three directions) determined in accordance with EN 60745:

a_h = Vibration emission value (screwdriving with impact)

K_n = Uncertainty (vibration)

The vibration emission 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 another. It is also suitable for a provisional estimate of the vibratory load.

The specified vibration level applies to the main applications of the power tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This can considerably increase the vibratory load over the entire 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 significantly 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 patterns.

Typical A-effective perceived sound levels:

L_pA = Sound pressure level

L_WA = Acoustic power level

K_pA, K_WA = Uncertainty (noise level)

Wear ear protectors!
