Battery Charge Indicator

The green LEDs on the battery charge indicator (17) indic-
ate the state of charge of the battery (8). For safety reasons,
it is only possible to check the state of charge when the
power tool has been stopped.
Press the battery charge indicator button (16) to show the
state of charge. This is also possible when the battery is re-
moved.
If no LED lights up after pressing the battery charge indicator
button (16), the battery is defective and must be replaced.

Changing the tool (see figure A)
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
The drill spindle is locked when the on/off switch (14) is not
pressed. This makes it possible to change the application
tool in the drill chuck quickly, conveniently and easily.
Open the keyless chuck (2) by turning it in the direction of
rotation ➊ until the tool can be inserted. Insert the tool.
Firmly tighten the keyless chuck (2) by turning it by hand in
the direction of rotation ➋. This will automatically lock the
drill chuck.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carci-
nogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment ad-
ditives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the ma-
terials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can

easily ignite.
