English | 15
For power tools with a keyed chuck, removal is carried out as
described above.
For power tools with a keyless chuck, an open-ended span-
ner (width across flats 19 mm) can be mounted on the drill
chuck instead of the hex key (14).
Fitting the Drill Chuck (see figure E)
To fit the keyless chuck/keyed chuck, perform the same
steps in reverse order.
To fit the keyless chuck (1), perform the same steps in re-
verse order.
u After successfully fitting the drill chuck, remove the
steel pin from the hole again.
The drill chuck must be tightened using a tight-
ening torque of approx. 30–35Nm.
Operation
Starting Operation
u Pay attention to the mains voltage! The voltage of the
power source must match the voltage specified on the
rating plate of the power tool. Power tools marked
with 230V can also be operated with 220V.
u Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
Set the rotational direction (see figureF)
The rotational direction switch (3) is used to change the ro-
tational direction of the power tool. However, this is not pos-
sible while the on/off switch (5) is being pressed.
Right rotation: To drive in screws and tighten nuts, press
the rotational direction switch (3) through to the left stop.
Left Rotation: To loosen and unscrew screws and nuts,
press the rotational direction switch (3) through to the right
stop.
Setting the Operating Mode
Drilling and screwdriving
Set the selector switch (2) to the "drilling" sym-
bol.
Impact drilling
Set the selector switch (2) to the "impact
drilling" symbol.
The selector switch (2) clicks into place and can also be ac-
tuated when the motor is running.
Switching on/off
To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch
(5).
Press the lock-on button (4) to lock the on/off switch (5) in
this position.
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (5);
or, if the switch is locked with the lock-on button (4), briefly
press the on/off switch (5) and then release it.
Adjusting the Speed/Impact Rate
You can adjust the speed/impact rate of the power tool when
it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (5) to varying ex-
tents.
Applying light pressure to the on/off switch (5) results in a
low rotational speed/impact rate. Applying increasing pres-
sure to the switch increases the speed/impact rate.
Preselecting the speed/impact rate
You can preselect the required speed/impact rate using the
speed preselection thumbwheel (6), even during operation.
The required speed/impact rate is dependent on the mater-
ial and the work conditions and can be determined by prac-
tical trials.
Working Advice
u Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
u Only apply the power tool to the screw/nut when the
tool is switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
After working at a low speed for an extended period, you
should operate the power tool at the maximum speed for ap-
proximately three minutes without load to cool it down.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
u Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
u To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
