Vibration emission value ah = 1.846 m/s2 K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s2

The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values were measured in accordance with a set of standardized criteria and can be used to compare one power tool with another.

The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values can also be used to make an initial assessment of exposure.

Warning:

The vibration and noise emission levels may vary from the level specified during actual use, depending on the way in which the power tool is used, especially the type of workpiece it is used for.

Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

Only use appliances which are in perfect working order.
Service and clean the appliance regularly.
Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
Do not overload the appliance.
Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.
Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.

Caution!

Residual risks

Even if you use this electric power tool in accordance with instructions, certain residual risks cannot be rules out. The following hazards may arise in connection with the equipment’s construction and layout:

Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.
Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not properly guided and maintained.

Limit the operating time.

All stages of the operating cycle must be considered (for example, times in which the electric tools are switched off and times in which the tool is switched on but operates without load).

Before starting the equipment

Be sure to read the following information before you use your cordless screwdriver for the first time:

Charge the battery pack with the charger supplied.
Only ever use sharp drill bits and screwdriver bits which are suitable for the purpose and in faultless condition.
Always check for concealed electric cables and gas and water pipes when drilling and screwing in walls.

Operation

Charging the LI battery pack (Fig. 2-3

Remove the battery pack (6) from the handle, pressing the pushlock buttons (a) downwards to do so.
Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Insert the power plug of the charger (7) into the mains socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to fl ash.
Push the battery pack onto the battery charger.

In section 10 “Charger indicator” you will fi nd a table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.

If the battery pack fails to become charged, please check

whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
whether there is proper contact at the charging contacts on the charger.

If the battery still fails to become charged, please return

the charger
the battery pack to our Customer Service Department.

To ensure that items are properly packaged and delivered when you send them to us, please contact our customer service or the point of sale at which the equipment was purchased.

When shipping or disposing of batteries and cordless tools, always ensure that they are packed individually in plastic bags to prevent short circuits and fi res.

To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the performance of the device drops.

Never allow the battery pack to become fully discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.

Turning the drill head (Fig. 4)

The cordless angle drill features a swiveling drill head that enables you to fasten the drill head in four diff erent positions (Fig. 4).

To swivel the drill head, press and hold the release button (4). You can then swivel the drill head into the required position.
Operation

Forward/Reverse switch (Fig. 5/Item 2)

With the slide switch above the On/Off switch you can select the direction of rotation of the battery powered drill/screwdriver and secure it against being switched on accidentally. You can choose between clockwise and anticlockwise rotation. To avoid causing damage to the gearing it is advisable to change the direction of rotation only when the tool is at a standstill. The On/Off switch is blocked when the slide switch is in centre position.

On/Off switch (Fig. 5/Item 3)

Infinitely variable speed control is possible with the On/Off switch. The further you push the switch, the higher the speed of the cordless angle drill.

Operation

Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 6 – Item c)

Operation

Press the battery capacity indicator switch (b).

The battery capacity indicator (c) shows the charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.

All 3 LEDs are lit:

The battery is fully charged.

2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:

The battery has an adequate remaining charge.

1 LED fl ashes:

The battery is empty, recharge the battery.

All LEDs blink:

The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from the equipment, keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this means that the rechargeable battery has undergone
exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.

LED lamp (Fig. 5/Item 5)

The LED lamp (5) can be used in poor lighting conditions to illuminate the area where you want to drill or screw. The LED lamp (5) will be lit automatically as soon as you press the ON/OFF switch (3).

Changing the tool (Fig. 7)

Operation

Important. Set the changeover switch (2) to its centre position whenever you carry out any work (for example changing the tool, maintenance work, etc.) on the cordless screwdriver.

The cordless screwdriver is fitted with a quick-action chuck (1) with an automatic spindle stop.
Open the chuck (1). The chuck opening (d) must be large enough to hold the tool (drill bit or screwdriver bit).
Select the suitable tool. Push the tool as far as possible into the chuck opening (d).
Tighten the chuck (1) and then check that the tool is secure.

Screwdriving

We recommend using self-centering screws (e.g. recessed head screws) designed for reliable working. Be sure to use a bit that matches the screw in shape and size. Set the torque, as described elsewhere in these operating instructions, to suit the size of screw.

Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Danger

Always pull out the battery pack before starting any cleaning work.

Cleaning

Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

Maintenance

There are no parts inside the equipment which require additional maintenance.

These guarantee terms apply solely to consumers, i.e. natural persons, who do not want to use this product in connection with either their commercial or other self-employed activities. These guarantee terms regulate additional guarantee services which the undermentioned manufacturer promises to buyers of its new products in addition to their statutory rights of guarantee. Your statutory rights of guarantee are not affected by this guarantee. Our guarantee is free of charge to you.
The guarantee services cover only defects due to material or manufacturing faults on the new product which you have bought in the European Union from the undermentioned manufacturer and are limited to either the rectification of said defects or the replacement of the product, whichever we prefer. Please note that only equipment under the brand name “Professional” has been designed for use in commercial, trade or professional applications.
