 General Safety Instructions

For your own protection and for the protection of your power tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol!
WARNING
 Reading the operating instructions will reduce the risk of injury.

• Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all safety warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Keep all safety instructions and information for future reference.
Pass on your power tool only together with these documents.

 Special Safety Instructions

Wear ear protectors with impact drills (machines with the designation SB). Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool (depending on the model). Loss of control can cause personal injury. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. A cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g. using a metal detector).

• Protect battery packs from water and moisture!
• Do not expose battery packs to fire!
• Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs!
• Do not open battery packs!
• Do not touch or short circuit battery pack contacts!

A slightly acidic, flammable fluid may leak from defective Li-ion battery packs!
If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your eyes, wash them with clean water and seek medical attention immediately!
If the machine is defective, remove the battery pack from the machine. Remove the battery pack from the machine before making any adjustments, changing tools, maintaining or cleaning. Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the machine is switched off. Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove chips and similar material only with the machine at a standstill. Secure the workpiece to prevent slipping or rotation (e.g. by securing with screw clamps). LED lights (13): do not observe the LED radiation directly with optical instruments.
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING
 Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

•  Lead from lead-based paints,
•  Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
•  Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. This also applies to dust from other materials such as some timber types (like oak or beech dust), metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g. allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let dust enter the body. Observe the relevant guidelines and national regulations for your material, staff, application and place of application (e.g. occupational health and safety regulations, disposal).Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this way, fewer particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
– do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust deposits,
– use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
– ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or blowing stirs up dust.
– Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not blow, beat or brush.
Transport of li-ion battery packs:
The shipping of li-ion battery pack is subject to laws related to the carriage of hazardous goods (UN 3480 and UN 3481). Inform yourself of the currently valid specifications when shipping li-ion battery packs. If necessary, consult your freight forwarder. Certified packaging is available from Metabo.
Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack from the machine for sending. Prevent the contacts from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with adhesive tape).

Use

Battery pack, capacity and signal

1. Battery pack, capacity and signal indicator
   Charge the battery pack before use.
   Recharge the battery pack if performance diminishes.
   The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 30°C.

2. Removing and inserting the battery pack

3. Setting the direction of rotation, engaging the transporting safety device (switch-on lock)

4. Select the gearDo not set the gear switch (4) unless the motor has stopped completely!

5. Set drill, hammer drillActivate slide switch (3).

6. Setting torque control, maximum torque, pulse function
   Do not work for long periods with pulse  function switched on! (The motor can overheat.)Set the desired operating mode at the setting wheel (12):1…10 = Torque control
   = maximum torque
   = Pulse function

7. Switching On/Off, setting the speedSwitching on, speed: press the trigger switch (14) . Press in the trigger switch to increase the rotational speed.
   Switching off: release the trigger switch (14).
   Note: the noise that the machine makes when it switches off is due to the design (quick stop) and has no influence on the function or the service life of the machine.

8. Keyless chuckWith a soft tool shank, retightening may be required after a short drilling period.
   Instructions for machines with the designation SB…:

   • The grating sound which may be heard after opening the chuck is functional and is stopped by turning the sleeve in the opposite direction.
   • Clamping the tool:
     Turn sleeve in direction “GRIP, ZU” until the noticeable mechanical resistance has been overcome.
     Caution! The tool is not yet clamped! Keep turning the sleeve (it must “click” when turning), until it cannot be turned any further – only now is the tool securely clamped.
     Cleaning: from time to time, hold the machine vertically with the chuck facing downwards and turn the sleeve fully in the direction “GRIP, ZU” and then turn fully in the direction
     “AUF, RELEASE”. The dust collected falls from the keyless chuck.

9. Unscrewing the chuckEmploy the same procedure when attaching the chuck, except in reverse order.

10. Chuck with quick-change system Quick (for machines with the designation …BL Q…) Removal: push the interlock ring forward (a), pull off the chuck forwards (b).
    To fit: push the interlock ring forward and move the chuck as far as the limit stop on the drill spindle.

    Fit the bit depot (6).

Troubleshooting

The machine’s multifunctional monitoring system

If the machine switches off automatically, the machine electronics have activated automatic protection mode. A warning signal sounds
(continuous beeping). The beeping stops after a maximum of 30 seconds or when the trigger switch (14) is released.
In spite of this protective function, overloading is still possible with certain applications and can result in damage to the machine.
Causes and remedies:

1. Battery pack almost empty  (The electronics protect the battery pack against damage through total discharge).
   If one LED (10) is flashing, the battery pack is almost flat. If necessary, press the button (9) and check the LED lamps (10) to see the charge level. If the battery pack is almost flat, it must be recharged.

2. Long continuous overloading of the machine will activate the temperature cut-out.
   Leave the machine or battery pack to cool. Note: if the battery pack feels very warm, the pack will cool more quickly in an “AIR COOLED” charger.
   Note: the machine will cool more quickly if you operate it at idling speed.

3. Metabo Safety shut-down: The machine has SHUT DOWN by itself. If the speed suddenly drops (for example, if the machine suddenly seizes or kickback occurs), the machine switches off. Switch off the machine at the trigger switch (14). Switch it on again and continue to work as normal. Try to prevent the machine from seizing.

Note:
The LED lamp (13) switches off automatically after a specific time.
