General safety advice for electrical power tools / Before ﬁrst use

Safety advice relating to cordless drill drivers

Securely support the workpiece. A work- piece held in a clamp or vice is kept more se- curely in place than one held by your hand.

WARNING! POISONOUS DUSTS! Harmful / noxious dusts generated from your work represent a risk to the health of the person operating the device and to anyone near the work area.

Wear safety glasses and a dust mask!

Do not drill any material containing asbestos. Asbestos is a known carcinogen. Hold the electrical power tool ﬁrmly. High reaction torques may occur momentarily during tightening or loosening of screws.

If the inserted tool jams, switch oﬀ the electrical power tool immediately. Be prepared for high reaction torques as they may cause kickback. The inserted tool may jam if the electrical power tool is overloaded or is held at an angle to the workpiece.

WARNING! The inserted tool may strike concealed electricity cables, therefore when working you must hold the electrical power tool by the insulated handle areas only. Contact with a live wire means that the metal parts of the electrical power tools may become live and this can result in an electric shock.

Before you carry out any tasks on the device, transport or store it, make sure that the direction of rotation switch is in the middle position (lock). To prevent the device from starting up uninten- tionally.

Before ﬁrst use

GREEN / RED / ORANGE = maximum charge / performance

RED / ORANGE = medium charge / performance RED = low charge – recharge battery

Changing tools

Your cordless drill / screwdriver has a fully automat-

ic spindle lock .

Once the motor has come to a halt, the drive shaft is automatically locked, so that the chuck 12 can

be opened simply by turning it .

After you have inserted the required bit and ﬁxed it

in place by turning the chuck , you can immedi- ately continue working. The spindle lock releases itself automatically when the motor is started (by operation of the ON / OFF switch 6 ).
