• Recharge the rechargeable battery about every 3 months, as otherwise they might be fully discharged
due to self-discharge, which renders the rechargeable battery useless.
• Use only the replacement rechargeable battery provided by the manufacturer to replace the rechargea-
ble battery for the cordless screw driller with. The cordless screw driller may be damaged by using differ-
ent rechargeable batteries; there also is a danger of fire and explosion due to an unsuitable rechargeable
battery.
• Only charge the rechargeable battery via the enclosed charger (charging station and plug-in mains
adapter). There is a danger of fire and explosion when using a different charger!
d) Operation of the Cordless Screw Driller
• Keep your workplace clean. Ensure good lighting at the workplace. Disorder at the workplace or bad
lighting may cause accidents. Keep children away from the working area! Ensure good ventilation of the
workplace.
• O nly operate the product when your ability to react is unrestricted. Fatigue or the influence of alcohol or
medication can lead to accidents and injury.
• Rotating parts may wind up hair or items of clothing, danger of injury! Therefore, wear, e.g., a hair net if
you have long hair, and wear close-fitting clothes when working.
• Never touch the turning drill chuck; never touch the turning drill or any other tool inserts (e.g. screw bits).
Risk of injury!
• Check the cordless screw driller and the rechargeable battery inserted for damage before any use. If you
find any damage, do not take the device into operation, but have it checked by a specialist.
• The rotating direction switch must be put into the middle position for reasons of safety before inserting or
removing drills or bits. The drive will be blocked in this position (activation lock).
• Use the cordless screw driller only for turning in and out screws, drilling holes or similar work. The cordless
screw driller must not be used for any other purposes (such as mixing of mortar, driving other devices/
machines/tools, etc.).
• Never overload any electrical devices. Use electrical devices only for the work that they are intended for.
• Secure the workpiece against slipping or twisting. Use, e.g., a vice for drilling.
• Ensure safe stance when working; use, e.g., a suitable, strong ladder.
• Ensure that no power, gas or water lines are damaged when drilling or turning in screws! With power
lines, there is a danger to life from electrical shock; with gas lines, there is a danger of fire and explosion!
Water lines may also lead to high property damage.
• Never work on live parts. When working near any electrical lines or similar, always ensure suitable
contact protection.
• Never stress the cordless screw driller to where the drive stops. This may damage the motor and the
gear both. Blocking of the drive will also lead to very high currents, so that the rechargeable battery and
the power electronics in the cordless screw driller will be overloaded.
