2.4 Noise emission specifications

Noise emission values determined according to EN 60745-1 and EN 60745-2-5:

	Sound power level	Workplace-related emission value
A18 M bl	76 dB (A)	87 dB (A)
ASB18 M bl	91 dB (A)	102 dB (A)
Measuring inaccuracy	3 dB	3 dB

The values stated do not take into consideration any possible series variances and are not suitable for determining the rating levels, as these fluctuate in dependence on the time in service, the respective type of machining and the environmental influences. The noise rating level can therefore only be determined on an individual basis at the machine user's position.

5 Operation

5.1 Rechargeable battery, capacity and signal display

(Fig. 3)

• Charge the rechargeable battery prior to use.
• Recharge the rechargeable battery in case of loss of power.
  The optimum storage temperature is between 10^ and 30^ .

5.2 Removing and inserting the rechargeable battery

(See Fig. 4)

5.3 Sense of rotation, transport lock

Setting the switch-on lock (Fig. 5)

5.4 Selecting the gear speed

(Fig. 6)

Actuate the switch slider (4) only when the motor is standing still!

5.5 Setting drilling or impact drilling mode

Only for ASB 18 M bl, (Fig. 1)

• Set the desired operating method at the gear change slide (3).

5.6 Torque control, maximum torque, setting the impulse function

Caution!

Do not work with activated impulse function for a longer period of time! (The motor can overheat). It is best to only work with the additional handle when using the impulse function.

(Fig. 7 and 1)

Turn the setting wheel (13) to switch on the impulse function (button (5) flashes) or to switch on the torque control (button (5) glows constantly).

Press button (5) for maximum torque (drilling). The light in button (5) goes out.

To reactivate the setting wheel settings: Press button (5) again or turn the setting wheel (button (5) glows).

5.7 Switching on/off, setting the speed

(Fig. 1)

Switching on: Press the switch trigger (15). The speed at the switch trigger can be changed by the depth to which it is depressed.

Switching off: Release the switch trigger (15).

The noise that can be heard when the machine is switched off is due to the design (quick stop) and has no influence on function and life time of the machine.

5.8 Quick-release chuck

(Fig. 8)

In case of a soft tool shaft, it may be necessary to retension after a short drilling time.

Notes on ASB18 M bl and A18 M bl

• The ratchet sound that may be heard after opening the chuck (functional) is switched off by counter-rotating the sleeve.
  Tensioning the bit: Turn the sleeve in direction "GRIP, CLOSED" until the perceptible mechanical resistance has been overcome. Caution! The tool is not yet tensioned! Continue turning forcefully (a "clicking" sound must be heard while doing so) until it is not

possible to turn any further - only now the tool is reliably tensioned.

Cleaning: Hold the machine occasionally with the quick-release chuck pointing vertically down and turn the sleeve completely in direction "GRIP, CLOSED" and then turn it completely in direction "OPEN, RELEASE". The collected dust drops out of the quick-release chuck.

5.9 Detaching the quick-release chuck

(Fig. 9)

Detaching: Pull the locking ring forward and pull off the chuck to the front.

Attaching: Pull the locking ring forward and push the chuck up to the limit stop onto the drilling spindle (if necessary, turn the chuck lightly to and fro).

5.10 Belt clip

(Fig. 10)

Detaching: Push together the belt clip on one side, so that you can swing it out of the rear opening. Once it has been unfastened from this opening, you can also unfasten it from the front opening.

Attaching: Proceed in the reverse order as described above. The belt clip can be attached on both sides.

5.11 Bit adapter

(Fig. 1)

A screw bit can be fitted in the bit adapter (7) on both sides.

5.12 LED light

(Fig. 1)

The LED light (14) is switched on by means of a movement sensor and switches off automatically when the machine has not been in use for a certain time.

5.13 Angle attachment

The angle attachment can be used to carry out screwing and drilling tasks at right angles to the screwdriver axle. It is possible to set angles at 22.5^ increments to the screwdriver axis.

Slide the angle attachment completely onto the machine until the components' profiles engage.

The adjusting screw (5) (Fig. 11) is used to adjust the clamping force: The clamping force is set correctly

when the clamping arm (4) can only be moved down to the limit stop with force and the angle attachment is firmly attached to the appliance.

Forcefully push the clamping arm (4) down to the limit stop, in this manner fastening the angle attachment on the machine (Fig. 11). Do not push the arm down forcefully before it has been slid onto the clamping neck. This could ruin the tight fit.

7 Troubleshooting

Danger

Determining the causes for existing defects and eliminating these always requires increased attention and caution.

To activate the electronic functions: Press the switch trigger (15).

If the machine switches off automatically, the electronic system has activated self-protection mode.

Despite this protective function, overload and as a consequence damage to the machine may occur during certain applications.

Some of the most frequent defects and their causes are listed in the following chart. In case of other defects, contact your dealer or the MAFELL customer service.

Defect Cause Remedy
Rechargeable battery almost empty, an LED on the rechargeable battery is flashing.	Electronic system protects the rechargeable battery from deep discharge.	Check, press button 10. Fig. 1, 2, 3Only one LED is still glowing.Charge the rechargeable battery.
Overload, machine switches off.	A sustained load has overheated the machine or the rechargeable battery. A warning signal is sounded (constant bleeping).This sound stops after max. 30 seconds or when the switch trigger is released (15).	Allow the machine and the rechargeable battery to cool down.The rechargeable battery can be cooled down much faster with a charger with air cooling.The machine can also be cooled down much faster by using a different rechargeable battery and idling the machine.
The machine switches off at a sudden increase in load.	The sudden increase in load also causes the current that is required for the machine to rise. This rise in current, which occurs when there is a sudden blockage or backlash, is measured and then leads to the machine being switched off.	Switch off the machine by releasing the switch trigger (15).Afterwards, you can switch the machine back on again and resume work as normal.Try to avoid further blockages.
