6. Operation
6.1 Torque setting (Fig. 2/Item 1)
Caution! Only ever adjust the torque setting 
ring when the equipment is at a standstill.
The cordless  drill driver is fi tted with a 
mechanical torque selector.
The torque for a particular screw size is set 
with the torque setting ring (1). The torque is 
dependent on a number of factors:
• 
 On the type and hardness of the material 
involved
• 
 On the type and length of the screws used
• 
 On the requirements that the screw 
connection has to satisfy
The grating disengagement of the coupling 
indicates that the selected torque level has been 
reached.
6.2 Drilling (Fig. 2/Item 1)
For drilling purposes, adjust the setting ring for 
the torque to the last setting “Drill”. In the drill 
setting the slip coupling is non-functional. The 
maximum torque is available for drilling.
6.3 Changeover switch (Fig. 3/Item 3)
The slide switch above the On/Off  switch is for 
setting the direction of rotation of the cordless drill 
driver and for preventing the cordless drill driver 
from being switched on inadvertently. You can 
select between clockwise and counter-clockwise 
rotation. To avoid causing damage to the gearing, 
the direction of rotation must only be changed 
when the equipment is at a standstill. When the 
slide switch is in the middle position, the On/Off 
switch is locked.
6.4 On/Off  switch (Fig. 3/Item 4)
Infi nitely variable speed control is possible with 
the On/Off  switch. The further you pull the switch, 
the higher the speed of the cordless drill driver.
6.5 Switching from speed 1 to speed 2 
(Fig. 2/Item 7)
You can work with a higher or lower speed 
depending on the position of the selector switch. 
Change the gear only when the drill is at a 
standstill. If you fail to observe this point, the 
gearing may be damaged.
6.6 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 4 / item 2)
Press the battery capacity indicator switch (6). 
The battery capacity indicator (2) shows the 
charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.
All 3 LEDs lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED fl ashing:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs fl ashing:
The temperature of the battery is too low. Remove 
the battery from the device and leave it at room 
temperature for a day. If the error occurs again, 
this means that the battery has been completely 
depth-discharged and is defective. Remove the 
battery from the device. Never use or charge a 
defective battery.
6.7 LED lamp (Fig. 4/Item 10)
The LED light (10) can be used in poor lighting 
conditions to illuminate the area where you want 
to drill or screw. The LED light (10) will come on 
automatically as soon as you press the On/Off 
switch (4).
6.8 Changing the bit (Fig. 5)
Caution! Set the changeover switch (3) to its 
center position whenever you carry out any work 
(for example changing the tool, maintenance 
work, etc.) on the cordless drill driver.
• 
 The cordless drill driver is fitted with a quick-
action chuck (9) with an automatic spindle 
stop.
• 
 Open the chuck (9). The chuck opening (11) 
must be large enough to hold the tool (drill bit 
or screwdriver bit).
• 
 Select the suitable tool. Push the tool as far 
as possible into the chuck opening (11).
• 
 Tighten the chuck (9) and then check that the 
tool is secure.
6.9 Screws
It is advisable to use self-centering screws (e.g. 
cross recessed head) as these will enable you to 
work safely and reliably. Always make sure that 
the bit used is of the same size and shape as the 
screw. Set the torque to suit the screw size as 
specifi ed in the instructions.
