7. Handling
• Observe all safety instructions in these operating instructions!
• Avoid the following unfavourable ambient conditions during operation or transportation:
- damp or humidity which is too high
- extreme cold or heat
- direct sunlight
- dust or combustible gases, vapours or solvents (Explosion hazard!)
- strong vibrations
- strong magnetic fi elds such as those found in the vicinity of machinery or loudspeakers,
• Always check the product for damage every time before using it.
• In case you notice any damage, do not operate the product any longer and bring it to a specialist workshop.
• It must be assumed that the safe operation is no longer possible, if
- the device has been visibly damaged,
- the device no longer operates and
- it has been stored for long periods under unfavourable conditions or
- it has been subject to considerable stress in transit.
• Remove the rechargeable battery as soon as possible after the end of the charging process, then separate the
charging set from the mains voltage and pull out the mains plug.
• Do not insert any objects, e.g. paper clips, ball-point pens, pins or knitting needles etc. into the ventilation slits or
openings of the device.
• This cannot only cause risk of product damage but also risk of a fatal electric shock!
• Put on appropriate clothes when operating the product and depending on the application of the cordless screwdriver
take additional protective measures (safety goggles, dust protection, ear protection).
• Keep order at your workstation, ensure good light conditions. Keep children away from your workstation.
• Protect the workpiece against sliding or turning. For example, use a vise for drilling operations.
• Only use suitable bore bits or drills for the cordless screwdriver.
• Ensure your safe standing position when working, use a suitable ladder for example.
• Principally, use the electric tools only if you are concentrated and sober. A non-concentrated way of working or
working under the infl uence of alcohol or drugs cannot only damage the workpiece or electric device but can also
cause high risk of injury!
• Do not overload the electrical appliances. Only use the electric devices for such operations for which they are
provided. For example, the cordless screwdriver must not be used for gauging mortar.
• Do not apply any force onto the cordless screwdriver when screwing or drilling. Apart from the risk to damage the
cordless screwdriver/rechargeable battery there is also risk of injury.
• Never touch the rotating drill chuck, the rotating drill or drill bit. Risk of injury!
• The heating-up of the cordless screwdriver or the rechargeable battery during operation is normal.
• The same applies for the charging set and rechargeable battery when charging the rechargeable battery.
• Keep the electrical appliances in a clean condition and clean them at regular intervals. In this way you can enjoy a
correctly functioning tool for a long period of time.
• Keep the electrical appliance at a dry and clean location (no damp cellars or places like that). The location at which
you keep the device must be out of the reach of children. Children cannot estimate the risks which can arise through
handling electrical appliances.
8. Maintenance and cleaning
Before servicing or cleaning works, fi rst take the rechargeable battery out of the cordless screwdriver. The charging set
is to be separated from the mains voltage, pull it out of the mains socket!
None of the components inside this product is to be serviced by the user. Therefore never open it.
Servicing or repair and any associated opening of the product may only be carried out by a specialist or a specialist

10. Troubleshooting
In purchasing the cordless screwdriver, you have acquired a product which has been designed to the state of the art and is
operationally reliable. However, problems and faults can occur.
Therefore at this point we would like to explain to you how you can rectify possible faults.
Observe all safety instructions contained in these operating instructions without fail!
Problem
Possible solutions
Device not functioning
• Is the rechargeable battery empty?
• Is the rechargeable battery correctly inserted and engaged?
On/off switch cannot be pressed
• Set the turn-over switch to the position left or right. In the central position it blocks the on/
off switch!
When drilling a drill progress cannot be
observed
• Check the sense of rotation of the drill, switch the turn-over switch to the other position.
• Use another drill.
If unscrewing or tightening a screw the
cordless screwdriver vibrates
• Adjust the torque-setting ring in such a way that the required torque is available.
Only slow rotation of the drill chuck
• Is the rechargeable battery weak?
• Check the setting of the switch for the two-speed gear (“HIGH” or “LOW”) on the top side
of the cordless screwdriver.
Drill chuck rotates, the drill or the bore bit
does not rotate (tool slides through)
• Check if the drill chuck is tightened. Turn the two rings of the drill chuck in such a way that
the tool (drill or bore bit) is fixed.
• The clamping range of the drill chuck is too small. Insert the tool deeper into the drill chuck.
• The cordless screwdriver is only suited for drills from 1.5 mm to 13 mm.
