Use

Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.

Charging the battery

The battery needs to be charged before first use and whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done before. When charging the battery for the first time, or after prolonged storage, it will only accept an 80% charge. After several charge and discharge cycles, the battery will attain full capacity. The battery may become warm while charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.

Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures below 4 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging temperature: approx. 24 °C.

Charger with charger plug (fig. E)

To charge the battery, make sure that it is fitted on the tool.

Insert the charger plug (9) into the connector (8). Plug in the charger (7).

Switch on at the mains.

After normal use, a charging time of 3 hours will provide sufficient power for most applications. However, further charging for up to 6 hours could significantly increase the use time, depending on the battery and charging conditions.

Disconnect the tool from the charger.

Warning! Do not use the tool while it is connected to the charger.

Selecting the direction of rotation

For drilling and for tightening screws, use forward (clockwise) rotation. For loosening screws or removing a jammed drill bit, use reverse (counterclockwise) rotation.

To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

(2) to the left.

To select reverse rotation, push the forward/reverse slider to the right.

To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse slider into the centre position.
