Initial Operation

Inserting the Battery

Before re-inserting the battery 10 remove the protective cap 14 if necessary (see figure B ).

Set the rotational direction switch 6 to the centre position (locked off). Slide the charged battery 10 into the handle until it can be felt to latch.

Switching On and Off

To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 7 and keep it depressed.

The machine runs with variable speed between 0 and maximum, depending on the pressure applied to the On/Off switch 7. Light pres- sure on the On/Off switch 7 results in low rotational speed, thus allow- ing drilling to begin in a smooth, controlled manner. Further pres- sure on the switch results in an in- crease in speed.

To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 7.

Do not strain the machine so heavily that it comes to a standstill.

■The machine is not suitable for stationary op- eration, e. g., in a drill stand.

Overload Clutch

If the drill bit jams or edges, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted.

Due to the arising forces always hold the ma- chine firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.

Before pulling out a stuck tool insert, first remove the machine from it.

Reversing the Rotational Direction

Operate the rotational direction switch 6 only at a standstill.

The rotational direction switch 6 is used to re- verse the rotational direction of the machine. However, this is not possible with the On/Off switch 7 actuated.

Right Rotation

Turn the rotational direc- tion switch through to the left stop (normal op- eration: drilling, screw- driving, etc.).

Left Rotation

Press the rotational di- rection switch through to the right stop (for loos- ening and unscrewing screws and nuts).

Impact Stop Switch

■Set the impact stop switch 5 to “Drilling” (only at a standstill).

Set the impact stop switch 5 to the desired posi- tion:

Drilling

Hammer drilling

Electric Brake

When releasing the On/Off switch 7 the speed of the drill chuck is reduced to a stop, thus prevent- ing the run-on of the tool.

Any sparking occurring during this process in the area of the upper ventilation slots is normal and does not damage the machine.

For screwdriving applications, wait until the screw is flush with the material and then release the On/Off switch 7. The screw head does not pene- trate into the material then.
