screwdriving, drilling
2. nd gear (high speed) e.g. for drilling
7.3 Presetting the speed (depending on

Opening the drill chuck: Hold the retaining ring
and turn the sleeve with your other hand in
direction of the arrow -1-.
Clamping the tool: Insert the tool -2- as far as
possible. Hold the retaining ring and turn the sleeve

Chuck (9)
See illustration B on page 3.
Opening the drill chuck:
Turn the sleeve in the direction of the arrow -1-.
The grating sound which may be heard after
opening the drill chuck is functional and is stopped
by turning the sleeve in the opposite direction.
If the chuck is extremely tight: Remove battery pack

spanner at the flats on its head, and turn the sleeve
vigorously in the direction of the arrow -1.

Clamping the tool:
- Insert the tool -2- as far as possible.
- Turn sleeve in direction -3- until the noticeable
mechanical resistance has been overcome.
- Caution! The tool is not yet clamped! Keep
turning the sleeve (it must "click" when
turning), until it cannot be turned any further -
only now is the tool securely clamped.
With a soft tool shank, retightening may be required
after a short drilling period.
7.7 Unscrewing the chuck
(To screw without a chuck or when using
attachments)
Note: If a bit clamping bush (order no. 6.31281) is
attached, the screwdriver bit inserted in the
hexagon socket of the spindle is held in place.
Futuro Top Keyless Chuck (1)
See page 3, figure C.
Hold the drill spindle tight with the supplied open-
ended spanner. Clamp an Allen key in the chuck
and strike lightly with a rubber hammer to loosen,
then unscrew.
Tighten just as firmly.
The chuck must be screwed firmly to the
spindle. If rotated counter-clockwise (e.g.
when screwing) it could otherwise become loose.
Futuro Plus Keyless Chuck (9)
See illustration D on page 4.
Undo the locking screw. Caution left-handed
thread!
Hold the drill spindle tight with an open-ended
spanner. Clamp an Allen key in the chuck and strike
lightly with a rubber hammer to loosen, then
unscrew.
Employ the same procedure when attaching the
chuck, except in reverse order.
7.8 LED lamp (depending on the features)
For working in badly lit areas. The LED light (10)
lights up when the machine is switched on.

8. Troubleshooting

8.1 Only for cordless machines; the
machine's multifunctional monitoring
system
If the machine switches off automatically, the
machine electronics have activated automatic
protection mode.
In spite of this protective function, overloading
is still possible with certain applications and
can result in damage to the machine.
Causes and remedies:
1. Battery pack almost flat (the electronics
prevent the battery pack from discharging totally
and avoid irreparable damage).
If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat. (14) If necessary, press the (15) button and
check the LEDs (14) to see the charge level. If
