Tips And Tricks; Troubleshooting - Metabo SE 4000 Originalbetriebsanleitung

- Pull the quick-change lock (8) to the rear as far as the
stop (which unlocks the tool) and hold in this rear
position.
- Remove the tool (7).
If the quick-change lock (8) cannot be pushed to the
rear by hand, the depth can be used to do this.
Proceed as follows (see page 2, illustration 1b):
Option 1 :
- Insert the tool in a lateral bore of the depth stop (6).
- Use the depth stop (6) to push the quick-change lock
(8) to the stop at the rear (this locks the tool).
- Remove the tool (7).
Option 2 :
- Place the depth stop (6) on a table, for example.
- Mount the machine with the quick-change lock (8) on
the upper edge of the depth stop (6).
- Position the quick-change lock (8) on the upper edge
so that the quick-change lock (8) is pushed to the
rear when the machine is pressed down.
- Press the machine down.
- Hold the quick-change lock (8) firmly in this in posi-
tion by hand.
- Remove the tool (7).
Fit the depth stop (6) again:
turn and engage in position when mounting.
7.4 Working with depth stop
See page 2, illustration 2 a and 2 b.
To preset screw insertion depth, one of the screws
to be inserted is fitted on the tool. Set the depth stop
(6) by turning as follows:
a) Screws whose heads are to sit on the material
(socket-head screws, oval head screws, hex
screws): the surface area of the screw head is
2 mm outside the stop sleeve (9).
b) Flat head screws: The surface area of the screw
head is 2 mm outside the stop sleeve (9).
Insert a screw as a test. Correct the insertion depth
if necessary: When the depth stop (6) is inserted,
the insertion depth changes by 0.25 mm per notch.
If screw insertion has to be deeper: Insert stop
sleeve If the screw insertion is too deep: Unscrew
stop sleeve.
Removal of the depth stop (6) does not alter the set
screw insertion depth. After refitting, work can
continue at the same insertion depth.
When screwing in crosshead screws, press
the machine with the screwdriver bit firmly
against the screw until the screw is fully inserted;
otherwise the bit could slip out of the cross recess
and damage the material.
If the machine is not held exactly vertical in relation
to the tool, the depth stop counterbalances this (to a
certain extent).
7.5 Working without depth stop
Adapt the speed of the screwing process by
carefully pressing in the trigger switch.
When the screwing process is complete, switch off
the machine by releasing the trigger switch (2).

8. Tips and Tricks

Press the machine firmly against the screw until the
screwing process is complete.
This is particularly important when inserting dry wall
screws (with coarse threads) in gypsum
plasterboards because the large thread pitch of the
screws means that they are very quickly inserted.
If the stop sleeve (9) is stiff, it can be removed to
clean the thread.
.

9. Troubleshooting

If the screwdriver bit is too tightly fitted in the
toolholder, pull the screwdriver bit out with pliers or
push the quick-change lock (8) to the rear with the
help of the depth stop. See the chapter on Tool

10. Maintenance
Disconnect the mains plug before starting any
maintenance work.
Motor cleaning: blow out the machine regularly
through the rear air slots with compressed air.
If the long hole in the quick-change lock (8) is
contaminated, clean it and blow out with
compressed air. Pour some oil into the long hole if
necessary.
Remove the depth stop (6) regularly and clean it
