INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Using the tool
Note: Sparks may be visible through
the slots in the motor housing during
operation. The sparks are a normal
reaction of the motor when in use and
are created by the components inside the
motor moving against each other. The
function of the power tool is not affected
by this. We do however recommend not
to use the power tool near any flammable
liquids, gases or dust, which the sparks
may ignite.
Mounting drill/driver bits
Before any work on the machine (e.g.
maintenance, tool change, etc) as well as
during transport and storage, set rotational
direction switch to the centre position.
Unintentional actuation of the trigger can
lead to injuries. Adjust the chuck until the
opening is slightly larger than the shaft
of the drill bit that you wish to use. Insert
the drill bit into the chuck. Tighten the
chuck against the drill as described below
(Keyless chuck).
Regulating the shaft speed
It is possible to regulate both shaft
speeds from zero to maximum by altering
the pressure applied to the trigger. This
enables you to choose the optimum speed
for the task you are working on. Use
the lower speed for tightening/loosening
screws (position 1 on the gear selector
(3)).
Selecting shaft speed
Use a low speed when starting to drill in
metal, plastic or ceramic materials, using
the screwdriver function or carrying out
work that requires a high degree of torque.
Use a high speed when drilling in wood.
(position 2 on the gear selector (3)).
Reversing the direction of rotation
You can reverse the direction of rotation by
using the rotational direction switch (4).
To lock the trigger, set the selector to the
mid position between the right and left
options.
Adjusting the tightening moment
Turn the torque regulator (2) to the
desired position. Settings 1-19 are used for
tightening/loosening screws (the higher the
value, the greater the tightening moment).
Select the drill symbol before using the tool
for drilling.
Keyless chuck
Your drill has a keyless chuck so that you
can simply tighten or release drill/driver
bits.
To open/close the chuck hold the rear ring
(10) and rotate the front sleeve (11).
WARNING: RISK OF TRAPPING
Do not hold the front sleeve of the chuck
with one hand at the same time as you
open or close the jaws of the chuck with
the help of the screwdriver/drill's motor.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before any work on the machine (e.g.
maintenance, tool change, etc) as well
as during transport and storage, set
the rotational direction switch to the
10
centre position. Unintentional actuation
of the trigger can lead to injuries.
For safe and proper working, always
keep the machine and ventilation slots
clean.
