TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery in accordance with local and national provisions and
regulations.
Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling when transporting
batteries by a third party. Ensure that no batteries can come in contact with
other batteries or conductive materials while in transport by protecting
exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or tape. Do not
transport batteries that are cracked or leaking. Check with the forwarding
company for further advice.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The operator should pay particular and additional attention to these points in order to reduce the risk of serious personal injury
- Injury to hearing – Wear suitable ear protection and limit exposure.
- Injury to sight – Wear protective eye shields or goggles when using the product.
- Injury caused by vibration – Limit exposure and follow the instructions on risk reduction in this manual.
- Electric shock after contact with hidden wires – Hold the product only by insulated surfaces.
- Respiratory injury from dust created by operating the product – Wear suitable protection depending on type of dust.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. These are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
- Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
- After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
- Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about these symptoms.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged use of a tool. When using
any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
The product should never be connected to a power supply when you are
assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, performing maintenance, or
when the product is not in use. Disconnecting the product will prevent
accidental starting that could cause serious injury
- When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
- Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt and carbon dust.
- Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.
- Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
- For greater safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by an authorised service centre.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in the product are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life span of the product under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Recycle raw materials instead of disposing of as waste. The machine, accessories and packaging should be sorted for environmental friendly recycling.
E-TORQUE CONTROL
e-Torque control is a technology which automatically drives most screws flush.
When in the auto screw driving mode the drill will stop once the screw is
flush. If a deeper screw is required, continue depressing the trigger. The
drill will begin small rotations at a manageable speed. Release the trigger
once the desired depth is achieved.
When using e-Torque control it is important to ensure the screw bit is
correctly seated and does not slip from the screw head. If the screw bit is
incorrectly fi tted the drill may stop early to prevent damage to the screw
head or bit. If this occurs, realign the bit with the screw head and depress
the trigger again.
NOTE: e-Torque control works with most materials and applications but may
not operate with certain materials or screws, e.g., machine screws into metal
or plastic threads.

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured
in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 607 45 and may be used to
compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main
applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration
emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over
the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into
account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not
actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over
the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the efects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.
