USE 8 - Screwdriver METABO - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL USE 8 METABO

Original instructions We declare under our sole responsibility: These screwdrivers, identified by type and serial number *1), comply with all relevant requirements of the directives *2) and standards *3). Technical file at *4) - see page 3. The screwdriver is designed to insert and remove screws and also to tighten and release nuts. The user bears sole responsibility for any damage caused by unspecified use. Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the enclosed safety information must be observed. For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol! WARNING – Reading the operating instruc- tions will reduce the risk of injury. WARNING – Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any adjustments or servicing are performed. Take care to avoid gas, electricity, and water supplies! Hold the power tool only at insulated housing parts if there is a danger of making contact with concealed electric cables or the supply cable. Contact with live wires energises the metal parts of the housing and can cause electric shock to the operator. Wear hearing protection when working for a longer period of time. High noise levels over a prolonged period of time may affect your hearing. Note that high counter-torques are possible during work. USE 8: When working with max. torque, always use the side handle supplied. Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be processed. See page 2. 1 Setting collar (torque setting) 2 Side handle

• equipment-dependent Before plugging in check to see that the rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as stated on the rating label, match with your power supply. Always install an RCD with a max. trip current of 30 mA upstream.

6.1 Side Handle Installation (USE 8)

Open the clamping ring by turning the side handle (2) counter-clockwise. Slide the side handle onto the spindle collar of the machine. Tighten the side handle at an angle as required for the application.

7.1 Switching On and Off

To start the machine, press the trigger (4). The speed can be changed at the trigger by pressing. For continuous operation the trigger can be locked with the lock button (5). To stop the machine, press the trigger again.

7.2 Selection of Rotary Direction

Do not actuate the rotation selector switch (3) unless the motor has completely stopped. Selecting the direction of rotation: R=clockwise L = counter-clockwise

See page 3, Figure 1. Remove depth stop (7). Slide the quick-change lock (9) forwards and hold in position. Remove or insert tool (8). Release the quick-change lock (9). Place depth stop (7) back in position: When fitting, turn until it snaps into place.

7.4 Working with Depth Stop

Set torque setting 10 at setting collar (1). To preset screw insertion depth, one of the screws to be inserted is fitted on the tool. Adjust stop sleeve (6) by turning as follows (see page 3, Figure 2): a) Screws whose heads are to sit on the material (socket-head screws, oval head screws, hex screws): The surface area of the screw head is 2 mm outside the stop sleeve. b) Countersunk screws: The surface of the countersunk screw head is 2 mm outside the stop sleeve. Insert a screw as a test. Correct the insertion depth if necessary: When the stop sleeve (6) is inserted, the insertion depth changes by 0.25 mm per notch. If screw insertion has to be deeper: insert stop sleeve. If the screw has been too deeply inserted: unscrew stop sleeve. Removal of the depth stop (7) does not alter the set screw insertion depth. After refitting, work can continue at the same insertion depth. When screwing in cross-head screws, press the machine with the screwdriver bit firmly against the screw until the screw is fully inserted; otherwise the bit could slip out of the cross recess and damage the material. If the machine is not held exactly vertical in relation to the tool, the depth stop counterbalances this (to a certain extent).

7.5 Working with torque setting

Remove depth stop (7). Make torque setting at setting collar (1). Torque setting: Position 1-10, : Once the pre-selected torque has been achieved, the screwdriver clutch makes a rattling sound and the screwing procedure can be stopped. USE 8: On the setting collar (1) for torque setting, position max. and position 1 are arranged beside each other. The setting collar cannot be turned directly from Position max. to Position 1 (or from 1 to max.)! Turn in the opposing direction (i.e. passing through the other positions). Position max., (only USE 8): (turn the setting collar until it engages.) The screwdriver clutch is switched off. The maximum possible torque is available. USE 8: When working with max. torque, always use the side handle supplied. Note that high counter-torques are possible during work. Screwing in wood: Once the pre-selected torque has been achieved, the screwdriver clutch makes a rattling sound and the screws can slowly be inserted to the desired insertion depth. When using short screwdriver bits (25 mm): use a bit holder. (see Accessories section). Screw wooden boards with wing screws (Tek) onto steel: Work at low rotational speeds when drilling through the wooden board. When you reach the steel, work at maximum rotational speed. If it is hard to remove the bit holder from the toolholder: pull out with pliers. If the trigger (4) can not be depressed, check to see that the direction of rotation selector switch (3) is fully set to the R or L position. Clean the machine regularly. This includes vacuum cleaning the ventilation louvres on the motor. Use only genuine Metabo accessories. See page 4. Use only accessories which fulfil the requirements and specifications listed in these operating instructions.

Repairs to electrical tools must be carried out by qualified electricians ONLY! A defective mains cable must only be replaced with a special, original mains cable from metabo, which is available only from the Metabo service. If you have Metabo electrical tools that require repairs, please contact your Metabo service centre. For addresses see www.metabo.com. You can download spare parts lists from www.metabo.com. Observe national regulations on environmentally compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused machines, packaging and accessories. Only for EU countries: Never dispose of power tools in your household waste! In accordance with European Directive 2012/ 19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implementation in national law, used elec- trical tools must be collected separately and handed in for environmentally compatible recycling.

Emission values These values make it possible to assess the emissions from the power tool and to compare different power tools. Depending on the operating conditions, the condition of the power tool or the accessories, the actual load may be higher or lower. For assessment purposes, please allow for breaks and periods when the load is lower. Based on the adjusted estimates, arrange protective measures for the user e.g. organisational measures.
