General safety instructions

For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol!

WARNING
Reading the operating instruc-tions will reduce the risk of injury.

WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents.

Special Safety Instructions

Hold the 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.Remove the battery pack from the machine before any adjustments, conversions or servicing are performed. Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the machine is switched off. 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). Secure the workpiece to prevent slipping or rotation (e.g. by securing with screw clamps).Protect battery packs from water and mois-ture! Do not expose battery packs to naked flame! Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs!Do not open battery packs! Do not touch or short- circuit battery packs!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 imme-diately.
If the machine is defective, remove the battery pack from the machine.

Only screwdriving bits suitable for the impact wrench must be used. Take care when driving in long screws – risk of slip-ping. Mount the machine on the screw only when it is switched off. Wear ear protectors when working for long periods of time. High noise levels over a prolonged period of time may affect your hearing. LED lights (7): Do not observe the LED radiation directly with optical instruments.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).

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.

Initial Operation/Setting

Remove the battery pack from the machine before any adjustment or maintenance is carried out. Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the machine is switched off.

Battery pack
Charge the battery pack before use (9). If performance diminishes, recharge the battery pack. Instructions on charging the battery pack can be found in the operating instructions of the Metabo charger.
“Li-Power, LiHD” li-ion battery packs have a capacity and signal indicator: (12)

Press the button (11), the LEDs indicate the charge level.
If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost flat and must be recharged.

Removal:
Press the battery pack release (10) button and pull the battery pack (9) forwards.
Inserting:
Slide in the battery pack (9) until it engages.

Setting the direction of rotation, engag- ing the transporting safety device (switch-on lock)

Do not actuate the rotation selector switch or engage the transportation lock (4) unless the motor has stopped completely! Actuate the rotation selector switch / Engage the transportation lock (4)

Actuate the rotation selector switch / Engage the transportation lock (4)

R = Right rotation set (insert screws)
L = Left rotation set (remove screws)
0 = Central position: transportation lock setting (switch-on lock)

Switching on and off
Switching on:
press the trigger switch (5).
Switching off:
release the trigger switch (5).

Speed / tightening torque
The speed and tightening torque are connected directly. The lower the speed, the lower the tightening torque.
The tightening torque is influenced in two ways:

Preselect operating mode/desiredtightening torque at the setting wheel (7): MAX = max. tightening torque (power mode)
1..10 = adjustable tightening torque
APS = especially for self-cutting screws: at the beginning high speed (for drilling) and later low speed (for tightening the screw).
Stepless adjustment of the tightening torque:
The speed and tightening torque can be adjusted steplessly in any position of the setting wheel by pressing the trigger (5) firmly or lightly, thus adapting to working conditions.
Recommendation: determine the correct setting by carrying out trial screwdriving.

Changing screwdriving bit for SSD
Inserting screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve (3) forward and insert screwdriving bit as far as the stop. Release locking sleeve (3). Pull on the screwdriver bit to check that it is correctly seated.Removing screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve forward and remove screwdriving bit. Only use screwdriving bits with such plug-in ends:

The screwdriving bit used must match the screw. Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.

Changing SSW… screwdriving bits
Inserting screwdriving bit: Fit the tool on the square attachment (1) until the limit stop. Removing screwdriving bit: Pull the tool from the square attachment (1).The screwdriving bit used must match the screw.Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.

Use

Mount the machine on the screw, ensuring it is aligned straight. The screwdriving process has two elements: inserting the screw and tightening the screw with the percussion mech-anism. The tightening torque depends on the impact dura-tion.

With an impact duration of approx. 5 seconds, the maximum tightening torque has been reached. The torque curve depends on the type of applica-tion: With a hard screwdriving application (screw-couplings in hard material such as metal), maximum tightening torque is already reached after a short impact duration (a). With a soft screwdriving application (screw-couplings in soft material such as wood), a longer impact duration (b) is required. Recommendation: determine the correct impact duration by carrying out trial screwdriving.

Caution
With small screws, maximum torque can be reached even below an impact duration of 0.5 seconds.

This is why the duration of the screwdriving process must be monitored exactly.
Set a suitable position on the setting wheel (7) (see chapter 6.4).
Adjust the tightening torque by pressing firmly or lightly on the trigger (5), ensuring that the screw is not damaged or that the screw head does not tear off.
