CHANGING THE SPINDLE (CHUCK HEAD)
ROTATION DIRECTION
y Change the rotation direction of the spindle head using
the toggle switch (fig. 1, position 6) by setting it to the
right or left hand side. When the toggle switch is in
the middle position, the trigger switch will be locked
against being pulled accidentally (against accidentally
starting the cordless drill).
y For drilling or screwdriving, set the rotation direction
of the spindle head to the right. For loosening/unscre-
wing, set the rotation direction to the left.
INSERTING/EXCHANGING A TOOL PIECE
IN THE CHUCK HEAD
y Grasping the chuck head in the hand and
turning the spindle to the left by pre-
ssing the trigger (fig. 1, position 8), the
chuck will open up for the insertion of
the shank of the tool. Insert the shank of the tool suffi-
ciently deep into the chuck to ensure that the tool can
be securely clamped in the chuck for work. Then clamp
the tool in place by closing the chuck by turning the
spindle in the opposite direction. Thanks to the „spin-
-lock" function, the rotation of the spindle will auto-
matically be blocked when the chuck is tightened or
loosened by turning the chuck head by hand. Starting
the drill will automatically unblock the spindle.
y For drilling, use the drill bit intended for the given
material. For drilling into wood, use a wood drill bit and
for drilling into metal use a metal drill bit.
SETTING AN APPROPRIATE TORQUE
y In order not to strip the edges of the driver bits and the
drive in the head of the screw or damage the material
into which the joining element is screwed by an exce-
ssively large torque, e.g. when screwing thin screws
into soft materials, it is appropriate to turn the torque
setting ring (fig. 1, position 3) to a low torque and to
increase it gradually until the screw is drilled into the
material. Do not set the torque level while the spindle
is rotating. To set the torque, the numerical value must
be located next to the arrow on the body of the cordless
drill. When the set torque is reached, the driver bit will
stop turning and the spindle inside the cordless drill
will start to „skip" with a regular audible „trr..trr..trr"
sound, without rotating. If the screw is not sufficiently
EN
screwed in or out at this torque setting, it is necessary
to increase it by the necessary amount. It is appropriate
to set the torque by means of a practical test on a sam-
ple of the screwed material using the same material
and screw as on the final job.
•
ATTENTION
y Do not set the torque level while the chuck head is
rotating.
VI. Using the cordless drill
•
WARNING
y When using the cordless drill, follow the provided safe-
ty instructions.
TIGHTENING AND LOOSENING
•
ATTENTION
y For tightening/loosening, set a lower speed range; the
torque is higher at a lower speed range.
1. Into the driver of the screw, insert the appropriate bit,
otherwise the driver on the head of the screw and the
bit may be damaged.
2. Then pull on the trigger and set the appropriate
speed by the degree to which the trigger is pulled
down in the required rotation direction. When tigh-
tening/loosening, appropriately push down on the
cordless drill and work at a lower speed and with an
appropriately set torque level (see above) so that the
bit does not jump out of the driver of the screw or the
edges are not stripped.
DRILLING
y For drilling, set a higher speed range with a drill bit
intended for the material being drilled.
y For drilling larger holes, it is appropriate to first pre-
-drill using a drill bit with a smaller diameter and only
thereafter to use a drill bit with the required diameter.

VII. Safety instructions
for the drill
1) Safety instructions for all work activity
y When performing activities, where the machi-
ning (work) tool may come into contact with
hidden conduits or its own power cord, hold
the power tool by the insulated holding sur-
faces. In the event that the machining tool comes into
contact with a „live" conduit, the uninsulated metal
parts of the power tool will become live and may result
in the user suffering injury by electrical shock.
2) Safety instructions for using long drill bits
a) Never use the power tool for higher rotati-
on speeds than the maximum rated rota-
tion speed of the drill bit. At higher rotation
speeds, it is probable that the drill bit will bend if
allowed to rotate freely without being in contact
with a workpiece, which may lead to injuries to
persons.
b) When starting to drill, it is always necessary
to have a low rotation speed and the tip
of the drill bit must be in contact with the
workpiece. At higher rotation speeds, it is proba-
ble that the drill bit will bend if allowed to rotate
freely without being in contact with a workpiece,
which may lead to injuries to persons.
c) It is necessary to push only in the direction
of the drill bit and excessive pressure must
not be applied. Drill bits may bend and may
break or may result in loss of control, which may
lead to injuries to persons.
y If a significant amount of dust is generated, use an
industrial vacuum cleaner to extract the dust by placing
the suction nozzle underneath the hole being drilled,
held in place by another person. Do not use a domestic
vacuum cleaner for dust extraction. Inhalation of dust is
damaging to health. Ensure sufficient ventilation of the
area during work.
During work, use certified eye, respiratory tract and ear
protection with a sufficient level of protection. Consult
the sufficient level of protection for the dust generated
from the given material at a personal protective equi-
pment store.

The power tool generates an electromagnetic
field during operation, which may negatively
affect the operation of active or passive medi-
cal implants (pacemakers) and threaten the life of the
user. Prior to using this power tool, ask a doctor or the
manufacturer of the implant, whether you may work with
this power tool.
VIII. Safety instructions
for power tools
•
WARNING!
It is necessary to read all the safety instructions,
the user's manual, images and regulations supp-
lied with this power tool. Not adhering to any of the
following instructions may lead to injury by electrical shock,
a fire and/or a serious injury to persons.
All the instructions and the user's manual must be
kept for possible future reference.
The term „power tool" in all hereafter provided warnings is
defined as an tool powered from the power grid (via a power
cord) or a tool powered from a battery (without a power cord
/ cordless).
1) SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA
a) The work area needs to be kept clean, tidy,
and well lit. Untidiness and dark areas in the work
area are sources of accidents.
b) The power tool must not be used in environ-
ments where there is an explosion hazard,
where there are flammable liquids, gases or
dust. The power tool generates sparks which could
ignite dust or vapours.
c) When using the power tool, it is necessary to
prevent children and other persons access.
If the user becomes distracted, they may lose control
over the activity being performed.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) The plug on the power cord must correspond
to the power socket outlet. The power plug
must never be modified in anyway. Socket
adapters must not be used with power tools
that have a safety earth grounding connec-
tion. Power plugs that are not damaged by modifi-
cations and that correspond to the power socket will
limit the danger of injury by electrical shock.
