To obtain the best life for the battery
Never allow the drill to come to a complete standstill before recharging. The battery should be placed on charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the drill no longer performs a task it previously performed.
Avoid conducting short charges. Make sure that the battery is fully charged every time by allowing the charger to complete its full charging cycle.
Avoid allowing lose items like screws or nails etc to be stored with battery packs as these or similar items can short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.
Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in a dry secure place.
Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0°C and above 40°C.
WARNING. Never leave a battery on charge once it starts to warm up. Never leave the battery pack on charge for more than 3 hours after the green LED lights.
If you wish to charge a second battery pack, pull out the plug from the mains supply and keep it disconnected for at least 15 minutes before attempting to charge the second battery.
WARNING. Never store the battery out of the tool as the contacts are exposed and could be shorted by a metal object and cause a fire or explosion!
CAUTION. Never use the tool while charging is in progress.
To obtain the best life for the battery, do not let the tool come to a complete standstill before recharging. Do not conduct short charges.
Make sure that the battery is fully charged each time.
Switching on and off
Attach the battery pack (8).
To switch on, squeeze the trigger switch (7). This trigger switch
is an electronic variable speed control which enables the user to vary the speed continuously. The speed varies according to how far the trigger switch is depressed, the further it is
depressed the faster the motor will rotate and the lighter it is depressed, the slower it will rotate. The switch also acts as a brake as the motor will stop as soon as the trigger switch is fully released.
CAUTION. Always maintain tight control of the tool when switching on and off and remember that the motor will continue to turn for a short while after switching off.
Forward/reverse control
The forward/reverse control
(6)allows you to change the direction of the tool. It must not be used while the variable speed trigger is depressed.
To select forward rotation, depress the control (6) toward the left side of the tool. To select reverse depress the control (6) toward the right side of the tool.
Driving uses the forward mode.
The reverse mode is intended for the removal of screws and other fasteners.
The centre position of the control (6) locks the tool in the off position.
