5.6 Torque control, maximum torque, setting the
impulse function
Caution!
Do not work with activated impulse
function for a longer period of time!
(The motor can overheat). It is best
to only work with the additional
handle when using the impulse
function.
(Fig. 7 and 1)
Turn the setting wheel (13) to switch on the impulse
function (button (5) flashes) or to switch on the torque
control (button (5) glows constantly).
Press button (5) for maximum torque (drilling). The
light in button (5) goes out.
To reactivate the setting wheel settings: Press button
(5) again or turn the setting wheel (button (5) glows).
5.7 Switching on/off, setting the speed
(Fig. 1)
Switching on: Press the switch trigger (15). The
speed at the switch trigger can be changed by the
depth to which it is depressed.
Switching off: Release the switch trigger (15).
The noise that can be heard when
the machine is switched off is due
to the design (quick stop) and has
no influence on function and life
time of the machine.
5.8 Quick-release chuck
(Fig. 8)
In case of a soft tool shaft, it may be necessary to
retension after a short drilling time.
Notes on ASB18 M bl and A18 M bl
The ratchet sound that may be heard after
opening the chuck (functional) is switched off by
counter-rotating the sleeve.
Tensioning the bit: Turn the sleeve in direction
"GRIP,
CLOSED"
mechanical resistance has been overcome.
Caution! The tool is not yet tensioned!
Continue turning forcefully (a "clicking" sound
must be heard while doing so) until it is not
until
the
perceptible
-20-
possible to turn any further - only now the tool is
reliably tensioned.
Cleaning: Hold the machine occasionally with the
quick-release chuck pointing vertically down and turn
the sleeve completely in direction "GRIP, CLOSED"
and then turn it completely in direction "OPEN,
RELEASE". The collected dust drops out of the quick-
release chuck.
5.9 Detaching the quick-release chuck
(Fig. 9)
Detaching: Pull the locking ring forward and pull off
the chuck to the front.
Attaching: Pull the locking ring forward and push the
chuck up to the limit stop onto the drilling spindle (if
necessary, turn the chuck lightly to and fro).
5.10 Belt clip
(Fig. 10)
Detaching: Push together the belt clip on one side,
so that you can swing it out of the rear opening. Once
it has been unfastened from this opening, you can
also unfasten it from the front opening.
Attaching: Proceed in the reverse order as described
above. The belt clip can be attached on both sides.
5.11 Bit adapter
(Fig. 1)
A screw bit can be fitted in the bit adapter (7) on both
sides.
5.12 LED light
(Fig. 1)
The LED light (14) is switched on by means of a
movement sensor and switches off automatically
when the machine has not been in use for a certain
time.
5.13 Angle attachment
The angle attachment can be used to carry out
screwing and drilling tasks at right angles to the
screwdriver axle. It is possible to set angles at 22.5 °
increments to the screwdriver axis.
Slide the angle attachment completely onto the
machine until the components' profiles engage.
The adjusting screw (5) (Fig. 11) is used to adjust the
clamping force: The clamping force is set correctly
