Frequently Asked Questions - AS108VM Meister Craft

How to charge the battery for the first time?

The battery is not fully charged on delivery. Plug the mains supply into the charging dock, insert the battery until it stops. Charging takes about 3 to 5 hours. The LEDs indicate progress: red (started), yellow (advanced), green (complete). After a few cycles, the battery reaches its maximum capacity.

How to check the battery charge status?

Press the charge status button on the battery: red LED = almost empty, yellow = half charged, green = fully charged.

How to insert and remove a drill bit?

First remove the battery. Hold the locking ring and open the chuck by turning the collar. Insert the drill bit centered, then close the chuck while holding the locking ring. Make sure the jaws grip the tool securely.

How to adjust the torque setting?

Turn the torque limiter (knurled ring) to the desired setting: from 1 (soft screws) to 11 (hard screws). For drilling without limitation, select the drill symbol. The slip clutch prevents the screw from penetrating too deep.

How to select the rotation speed?

Use the speed range switch: 1st gear (0-350 rpm) for screwdriving or drilling small diameters; 2nd gear (0-1,000 rpm) for drilling larger diameters. The speed is adjusted continuously with the trigger.

How to reverse the rotation direction?

Operate the rotation direction switch above the trigger. Right position = clockwise rotation (drilling, screwdriving), left position = counterclockwise rotation (unscrewing). Never change direction while the motor is running.

What materials can be drilled with this drill?

It is designed for drilling wood, metal, and plastic. Use drill bits suitable for the material and follow recommended speeds: the smaller the diameter, the higher the speed; the harder the material, the lower the speed.

How to maintain the drill?

After each use, clean the ventilation slots with compressed air. Clean the housing with a dry cloth. Never use liquids or harsh cleaning products. The battery should be recharged from time to time to maintain its capacity.

What to do in case of breakdown or malfunction?

If you notice unusual noises, smells, or vibrations, immediately turn off the device and remove the battery. Have the device checked by an authorized specialist. Do not open the device yourself; this would void the warranty.

How to dispose of the battery at end of life?

Do not dispose of the battery with household waste. Take it to a recycling center or designated collection point. The lithium-ion battery must be recycled according to local regulations.

General safety notes for handling power tools

WARNING

• Read all safety notes and instructions. Failure to follow all safety notes and instructions may

result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

• Store all safety notes and safety instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" as used in the safety notes refers to mains-operated electrical tools (with power cables) and to battery-operated power tools (without mains cables).

Safety at work

• Keep your work space clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Electrical tools create sparks, which may ignite dust or vapours.
• Keep children and uninvolved bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the device.
• Ensure sufficient ventilation. Stale, odour-intensive air can cause tiredness.

Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use an adapter plug in conjunction with protective-earth devices. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain and wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not misuse the cable by using it to carry the power tool, to hang it up or to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving device parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, only use an extension cord that is also suitable for outdoor use. The use of a suitable extension cord for outdoor use will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
• When operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current protective device (RCD). Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

• This unit may not be used by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, with a lack of experience and without the appropriate knowledge, unless they are supervised by someone who is responsible for their safety or have been instructed by such a person with regard to how the unit is to be operated.
• Be careful and ensure that you pay attention to what you are doing and

make sure you are using the power tool sensibly. Do not use power tools when you are tired, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or prescription drugs. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal safety equipment and always wear goggles. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection, according to the type of power tool and the purpose, will reduce the risk of personal injuries.
• Avoid switching on accidentally. Ensure that the power tool is switched off before you connect it to the power supply/battery or carry it anywhere. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the device may result in personal injury.
• Avoid unnatural body positions. Ensure that you are standing securely and keep your balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

• Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves well away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-slip footwear are recommended when working outdoors.

• If facilities are provided for the connection of a dust extractor and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these mechanisms can reduce dust-related hazards.

• Do not remove or manipulate the safety mechanisms of the power tool.
• Do not make modifications to the power tool or to parts of the device.
• Only put down the power tool when it has been switched off and is at a standstill.
• Separate the power tool from the power supply when it is not in use.

Power tool use and care

• Do not overload the device. Use the appropriate power tool for the task in hand. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer in the power range for which it was designed.
• Do not use a power tool if the switch is defective. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the rechargeable battery before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the device. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Keep power tools that are not in use stored out of the reach of

children. Do not allow persons to operate the device who are not familiar with it, or who have not read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

• Treat your power tools with care. Check for proper functioning of moving parts and that they do not jam, breakage of parts and any other damage that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Have any damaged parts repaired before using the device. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and other tools etc., in accordance with these instructions. Take account of the working conditions and the task to be carried out. Use of the power tool for purposes for which it was not intended may result in a hazardous situation.
• If you notice anything unusual: Switch the device off. Separate the device from the power supply. Have the device checked by authorised specialist personnel. Examples of unusual behaviour include: Noises, smells, vibrations etc.

Service

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only original replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety when handling rechargeable batteries

• When recharging a rechargeable battery, only use chargers that have been recommended by the manufacturer. With a charger that is designed for use with a particular type of rechargeable battery, there is a risk of fire if it is used with other rechargeable battery types.
• Only use the rechargeable batteries designed for use in the device. The use of other batteries may lead to injury and risk of fire.
• When not in use, keep the rechargeable battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metallic objects that may bridge the contacts. A short-circuit between the rechargeable battery contacts can lead to burns or fire.
• Fluid may escape from the rechargeable battery if it is used incorrectly. Avoid all contact with this. In the event of accidental contact, rinse with water. If liquid should get into the eyes, get medical assistance. Leaking battery fluid may result in skin irritations or burns.
• Do not attempt to use the charger to recharge ordinary batteries. Ordinary batteries cannot be recharged. If you attempt to recharge ordinary batteries, they will become hot and may cause a fire.
• Do not dispose of the rechargeable battery in the household waste.

Send the rechargeable battery via a return system for recycling when it has come to the end of its lifetime.

Safety requirements with regard to fire prevention

• Keep a fire extinguisher at hand. For wood and paper fires: Powder fire extinguisher (fire class ABC) or foam fire extinguisher (fire class AB) for electrical fires: Carbon dioxide (CO_2) fire extinguisher (fire class B)

Special safety requirements for people with medical implants

Every power tool creates an electromagnetic field when used. Under certain unfavourable circumstances, this may affect the functionality of medical implants (e.g. pacemakers).

Before you use the rechargeable drill/ screwdriver:

• Consult your doctor.
• Ask the manufacturer of the implant.

Special safety measures when working with the rechargeable drill/screwdriver

• Use the charger cradle in dry indoor spaces only.
• When drilling and screwing, never touch the rotating chuck or inserted tool bit.
• When drilling and screwing, do not cover the ventilation slots of the drill-screwdriver.
• When drilling and screwing, pay attention to concealed cables and lines.
• Hold the device by the insulated protective handles when carrying out tasks during which the tool may

come into contact with hidden power cables. Contact with a power-carrying cable may also energise metal parts of the device and cause an electric shock.
