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 specifi ed 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 that are in perfect working order.
• Service and clean the appliance regularly.
• Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
• Do not overload the appliance.
• Has the appliance been serviced whenever necessary?
• Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
• Wear protective gloves.

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

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

Danger!

The electric power tool generates an electro-magnetic fi eld during operation. Under certain circumstances, this fi eld may actively or passively impede medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend persons with medical implants consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to using the equipment.

Before using the equipment

Be sure to read the following information before you put the cordless impact drill into operation:

1. Charge the battery pack only with a charger from the Power-X-Change series.
2. Only ever use sharp drill bits and screwdriver bits that are suitable for the purpose and in faultless condition.
3. Using a cable/pipe detector, check the area you want to work on for concealed electric cables and gas and water pipes.

Operation

6.1 Charging the LI battery pack (Fig. 2-3)

1. Remove the battery pack (a) from the handle, pressing the push-lock button (b) downwards to do so.
2. 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(c) into the socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to fl ash.
3. 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 charge, check for the following:

• the voltage at the power socket

• whether there is good contact at the charging contacts of the charging unit
  If the battery pack still fails to charge, send

• the charger and charging adapter

• and the battery pack to our customer service center.

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 a 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.

6.2 Selector switch for driving/drilling/impact drilling (Fig. 4/Item 2)
Caution!
Change the switch position only when the equipment is at a standstill!

Drilling/screwdriving:

For drilling/screwdriver, press the button (a) on the selector switch (2) and simultaneously turn the selector switch (2) to position A.

Hammer drilling:
For hammer drilling, press the button (a) on the selector switch (2) and simultaneously turn the selector switch (2) to position B.

Caution!
You only require slight contact pressure for hammer drilling. Excessive contact pressure will place unnecessary strain on the motor. Check drill bits at regular intervals. Sharpen or replace blunt drill bits.

6.3 Changeover switch (Fig. 5/Item 3)

Using the slide switch above the On/Off switch you can select the direction of rotation of the equipment and lock the equipment so that it cannot be switched on accidentally.
You can select between clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation. To avoid causing damage to the gearing, the direction of rotation must only be changed when the equipment is at a standstill. When the slide switch is in the middle position, the  On/Off switch is blocked.

Danger!

To avoid danger, the machine must only be held using the two handles.
Otherwise, you may suff er an electric shock if you drill into electric cables!

6.4 On/Off switch (Fig. 5/Item 4)
Infi nitely variable speed control is possible with the ON/OFF switch. The further you push the switch, the higher the speed of the equipment.

Switching on: Press the On/Off switch (4).

Switching off: Press the On/Off switch (4).

6.5 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 6/ Item e)
Press the button for the battery capacity indicator (d). The battery capacity indicator (e) 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
the battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.

6.6 LED lamp (Fig. 6/Item 5)

The LED light (5) can be used in poor lighting conditions to illuminate the area where you want to drill or screw. The LED light (5) will come on automatically as soon as you press the On/Off switch (4).

6.7 Inserting a tool (Fig. 7)

Caution! Set the changeover switch (3) to its center position whenever you carry out any work (for example changing the tool, maintenance work, etc.) on the equipment.

• Clean the tool before fitting it and apply a thin coating of bit grease to the tool shaft.
• Turn and push the dust-free tool into the tool mounting (h) as far as it will go. The tool will lock automatically.
• Check that the bit is locked in place by pulling on it.

6.8 Removing a tool (Fig. 8)
Pull back and hold the locking sleeve (1) and remove the tool.

6.9 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 the screw.

Cleaning, maintenance, and ordering of spare parts

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

7.1 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.

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

7.3 Ordering spare parts and accessories
Please provide the following information when ordering spare parts:

• Type of unit
• Article number of the unit
• ID number of the unit
• Spare part number of the required spare part
