Be sure to read the following information before you put the cordless screwdriver into operation:

1. Charge the battery only with the charging unit supplied.
2. Only ever use screwdriver bits which are suitable for the purpose and in faultless condition.
3. Before you begin to screw in walls and masonry, check for concealed electric wiring, gas pipes and water pipes.

6. Operation

6.1 Charging the battery (Fig. 2)

The battery is protected from exhaustive discharge. An integrated protective circuit automatically switches off the equipment when the battery is flat. In this case the bit chuck will cease to turn.

Warning! Do not press the On/Off switch any more if the protective circuit has tripped. This may damage the battery.

1. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate.
2. Plug the charging unit (11) in the socket outlet and connect the charging cable (12) to the charging station (8).
3. Now insert the cordless screwdriver into the charging station (8).

The red LED on the battery capacity indicator (5) indicates that the battery is being charged. When the charging has fi nished, the red LED will go out and the green LED will begin to shine.

Important. The handle may become a little warm during the charging process. This is normal.

If the battery fails to charge, please check

• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
- whether there is good contact at the charging contacts of the charging unit

If the battery still fails to charge, send

• the charging unit
• and the screwdriver
to our customer service center.

GB

Timely recharging of the battery will help it serve you well for a long time. You must recharge the battery when you notice that the power of the cordless screwdriver drops.

6.2 Changeover switch (Fig. 3/Item 10)

The slide switch above the On/Off switch is for setting the direction of rotation of the cordless screwdriver and for preventing the cordless screwdriver from being switched on inadvertently. You can select between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Change the direction of rotation only when the equipment is at a standstill. If you fail to observe this point, the gearing may become damaged. When the slide switch is in the middle position, the On/Off switch is blocked.

6.3 On/Off switch (Fig. 3 / Item 9)

Press the On/Off switch to switch the cordless screwdriver on. Release the On/Off switch again to switch it off.

6.4 LED lamp (Fig. 3/Item 2)

The LED lamp (2) can be used to additionally illuminate the area where you want to drill or screw. The LED lamp (2) will be lit automatically as soon as you press the On/Off switch (9).

6.5 Angle setting (Fig. 3+4/Item 7)

The screwdriver can be locked into 2 different angle settings. To do so, press and hold the locking button (7) and move the screwdriver into the desired position. Then release the locking button (7) again. Important. Before you switch on the screwdriver, make sure that it is correctly locked in the angle position in question.

6.6 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 5/Item 5)

Remove the cordless screwdriver from the charging unit/charging station.

Press the button for the battery capacity indicator (6). The battery capacity indicator (5) indicates the charge state of the battery on 3 colored LEDs.

All the LEDs are lit:

The battery is fully charged.

The yellow and red LEDs are lit:

The battery has an adequate remaining charge.

Red LED:

The battery is empty, recharge the battery.

6.7 Torque setting (Fig. 5 / Item 3)

The torque for a particular screw size is set with the setting ring (3). The torque is dependent on a number of factors:

• On the type and hardness of the material involved
  • On the type and length of the screws used
• On the requirements that the screw connection has to satisfy

The grating disengagement of the coupling indicates that the selected torque level has been reached.

Important. Only ever adjust the setting ring when the equipment is at a standstill.

6.8 Magnetic screw holder (Fig. 5/Item 4)

Screws can be placed on the magnetic screw holder for easy reach during operation.

6.9 Changing the bit (Fig. 6)

Important. Set the changeover switch to its center position whenever you carry out any work (for example changing the bit, maintenance, etc.) on the cordless screwdriver.

• Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (13).
- Insert the bit (a) in the bit chuck (1) and let go of the locking sleeve (13).
- Check that the bit is locked in placed by pulling on it.

6.10 Screws

It is advisable to use self-centering screws (e.g. Torx, cross recessed head) as these will enable you to work safely and reliably. Always make sure that the bit used is of the same size and shape as the screw.

7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts
