Safety instructions

General power tool safety warnings
Warning
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery oper-ated (cordless) power tool.

1.  Work area safety
   •  Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
   •  Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
   •  Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
   •  Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
   • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
   •  Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
   • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
   • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
   •  If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
   •  Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   •  Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   •  Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   • Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
   • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   • If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
   •  Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
   • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
   • Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
   •  Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
   •  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
   •  Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Battery tool use and care
   •  Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
   •  Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
   •  When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
   •  Under abusive conditions, liquid maAy be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6. Service
   •  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional power tool safety warnings

• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. 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. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
•  Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the wor iece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for the location of wiring and pipes.
• Avoid touching the tip of a drill bit just after drilling, as it may be hot.
• The intended use is described in this instruction manual. The use of any accessory or attachment or performance of any operation with this tool other than those recom-mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of personal injury and/or damage to property.

Safety of others

•  This tool is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capa-bilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the tool by a person responsible for their safety.
•  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Residual risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc. Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks can not be avoided. These include:

•  Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
•  Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-cessories.
•  Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular breaks.

Operating Instructions

Torque control (fig.D)
This tool is fitted with a torque adjustment collar (3) to select the operating mode and to set the torque for tightening screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require a higher torque setting than small screws and soft workpiece materials.

•  For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to the drilling position symbol
•  For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as follows:
•  Set the collar to the lowest torque setting.
•  Tighten the first screw.
•  If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is achieved, increase the collar setting and continue tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.

Keyless chuck (fig. E)
Warning! Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to prevent switch actuation before installing or removing acces-sories.
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:

•  Grasp the rear half of the chuck (7) with one hand and use your other hand to rotate the front half (8) in the counter-clockwise direction, as viewed from the chuck end.
•  Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by holding the rear half of the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise direction as viewed from the chuck end.
•  To switch the tool on, press the switch (1). The tool speed depends on how far you press the switch.
•  To switch the tool off, release the switch.

Hints for optimum use Drilling

•  Use sharp drill bits only.
•  Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
•  Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
•  Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
•  Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until
• he hole is started enough to keep the drill bit from slipping out of it.
•  Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
•  Hold the drill firmly with two hands to control its twisting action.
•  DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.
•  Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the last part of the hole.
•  Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce jamming.
•  Make sure switch turns drill on and off.

Drilling in wood
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade bits. These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to clear chips from the flutes.

Drilling in metal
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized cutting oil or lard oil.

Screwdriving

•  Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.
•  If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.
•  Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line with the screw
