Starting Operation

  • Only operate the rotational direction switch (3) when the power tool is not in use.

The rotational direction switch (3) is used to change the rotational direction of the power tool. However, this is not possible while the on/off switch (6) is being pressed.

Clockwise rotation: To drill and drive in screws, slide the rotational direction switch (3) downwards on the left-hand side and upwards on the right-hand side at the same time.

Anti-clockwise rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts, slide the rotational direction switch (3) upwards on the left-hand side and downwards on the right-hand side at the same time.

Drilling and screwdriving

Set the selector switch (2) to the "drilling" symbol.

Impact drilling

Set the selector switch (2) to the "impact drilling" symbol.

The selector switch (2) clicks into place and can also be actuated when the motor is running.

  • You can press the gear selector switch (7) with the power tool running at a low speed. You should not do this at full load or maximum torque, or when the tool is not in use, however.

You can preselect two speed ranges with the gear selector (7).

If the gear selector (7) cannot be swivelled all the way to the stop, turn the drive spindle slightly with the drill.

Gear I:

Low

For working with a large drilling diameter or for screwdriving.

Gear II:

High

For working with a small drilling diameter.

To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch (6).

Press the lock-on button (4) to lock the on/off switch (6) in this position.

To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (6); or, if the switch is locked with the lock-on button (4), briefly press the on/off switch (6) and then release it.

The rapid shut-off function (KickBack Control) gives the user greater control over the power tool and offers them better protection than power tools that do not have KickBack Control. The power tool will switch off if it suddenly and unforeseeably rotates around the drilling axis.

To restart the tool, let go of the on/off switch and operate it twice.

  • It will no longer be possible to switch the power tool on if the KickBack Control function is faulty. Have the power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only original replacement parts.

The power tool is equipped with an overload clutch (anti-rotation) to limit high torque reactions.

  • If the application tool jams or snags, the power transmission to the drill spindle will be interrupted. Always hold the power tool firmly with both hands to withstand the forces this may create and adopt a position with stable footing.
  • Switch the power tool off immediately and remove the application tool if the power tool becomes blocked. Switching on when the application tool is blocked may cause high torque reactions.

You can adjust the speed/impact rate of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (6) to varying extents.

Applying light pressure to the on/off switch (6) results in a low rotational speed/impact rate. Applying increasing pressure to the switch increases the speed/impact rate.

You can preselect the required speed/impact rate using the speed preselection thumbwheel (5), even during operation.

The required speed/impact rate is dependent on the material and the work conditions and can be determined by practical trials.

The drill spindle, and therefore the tool holder, are locked when the on/off switch (6) is not pressed.

This allows the power tool to be used as a screwdriver.
