Battery Safety
WARNING: If Li-ion batteries are incorrectly used, stored or charged, they could become a fire, burn and
explosion hazard.
• Keep the battery out of the reach of children
• Only charge Li-ion batteries using the charger provided or designed specifically for your product
• Only use Li-ion batteries provided with a product or specifically designed to be compatible
• Allow batteries to cool for 15 minutes after charging or heavy use. Failure to follow these instructions may
cause overheating or fire
• When not in use, batteries should be stored at room temperature (approximately 20°C)
• Ensure that battery contacts cannot accidentally short in storage. Keep batteries clean; foreign objects or
dirt may cause a short. Keep away from other metal objects, for example paperclips, coins, keys, nails and
screws
GB
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery. This liquid may cause skin irritation or
burns. Avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical
help
• Do not open, disassemble, crush, heat above 60°C or incinerate. Do not dispose of in fire or similar
Mini Screwdriver Safety
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only when performing tasks where the tool bit comes
within close proximity or may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners or cutting accessories contacting a 'live'
power source may make exposed metal parts of the power tool 'live' and could give the operator an
electric shock
• Hold the tool with a firm grip. Impact screwdrivers can provide instantaneous high levels of torque while
driving fasteners, which could easily be transferred to the operator
• Use the auxiliary handle(s), if provided. Loss of control can cause harm to the operator
• Always ensure the workpiece is secured. A properly secured workpiece using a vice or other clamping
equipment is held more secure than by hand
• Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before setting the tool down. The tool insert
can jam, leading to a loss of control over the power tool
Additional Safety for Battery-Operated
Drills
WARNING: It is imperative to follow all national safety regulations concerning installation, operation and
maintenance.
a) DO NOT allow anyone under the age of 18 years to use this tool, and ensure that operators are qualified
and familiar with the operating and safety instructions.
b) Battery chargers are for indoors use only. Ensure that the power supply and charger are protected against
moisture at all times.
c) When using the drill, use safety equipment including safety glasses or shield, ear defenders, and protective
clothing including safety gloves. Wear respiratory protection suitable for the work being undertaken.
A minimum rating of FFP2 is recommended. If operating the tool causes discomfort in any way, stop
immediately and review your method of use.
d) Use metal and voltage detectors to locate concealed electric, water or gas lines. Avoid touching live
components or conductors.
e) Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
f) Ensure that the drill bit is securely fixed in the chuck. Insecure drill bits can be ejected from the machine
causing a hazard.
g) Ensure that the drill bit is not in contact with the workpiece prior to starting up the tool.
h) Before drilling, check that there is sufficient clearance for the drill bit under the workpiece.
i) DO NOT exert pressure on to the tool. To do so would shorten its service life.
j) Drill bits get hot during operation, allow to cool prior to handling them.
k) NEVER use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste close by the bit.
l) If you are interrupted when operating the drill, complete the process and switch off before looking up.
m) Where possible, use clamps or a vice to hold your work.
n) Examine the chuck regularly for signs of wear or damage. Have damaged parts repaired by a qualified
service centre.
o) ALWAYS wait until the drill has come to a complete stop before putting it down.
p) Periodically check all nuts, bolts and other fixings and tighten where necessary.

Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your new tool. Familiarise yourself with all its features and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing or damaged,
have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool
Before Use
WARNING: Ensure the Charge Connector (13) is disconnected from the tool before use.
WARNING: Before attaching or changing any accessories or making any adjustments, ensure the
Forward/Trigger Lock/Reverse (5) is set to the middle Trigger Lock position, which prevents depressing the
trigger and powering the tool.
Setting the trigger lock or drill/drive direction
• The Forward/Trigger Lock/Reverse (5) button has three positions that affects the Trigger (10) and the
direction of Bit Holder (1) rotation
• To lock the Trigger, set the Forward/Trigger Lock/Reverse button to the middle position
• Press the Forward/Trigger Lock/Reverse button into the handle for the desired direction of the Bit Holder
rotation, clockwise or anti-clockwise
• Visually check the bit holder rotation before connecting with the screw/fastener or workpiece
WARNING: Always set the Trigger to lock position when using the torch, changing bits, or when the tool is
not in use.
