– Strength properties of the material being screwed/bolted
together
– Lubrication conditions at the screw/bolt connection
The following application cases result accordingly:
– A hard seat is a metal-to-metal screw application which
uses washers. After a relatively short impact duration, the
maximum torque is achieved (steep characteristic curve).
An unnecessarily long impact duration only causes dam-
age to the machine.
Guide values for maximum screw tightening torques
Figures given in Nm; calculated from the tensional cross-section; utilization of the yield point: 90% (with friction coefficient
µ = 0.12). As a control measure, always check the tightening torque with a torque wrench.

Tips
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it
is advisable to pre-drill a pilot hole with the core diameter of
the thread to approx. 2/3 of the screw length.
Note: Ensure that no metal particles enter the power tool.
Recommendations for optimal handling of the battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery only within a temperature range of -20
to 50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer,
for example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Clean the air vents on your power tool regularly. The
u
motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing and ex-
cessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause elec-
trical hazards.
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.

– A spring-loaded seat is also a metal-to-metal screw ap-
plication but uses spring washers, disc springs, studs or
screws/nuts with conical seats. It is also called a spring-
loaded seat when extensions are used.
– A soft seat is a screw application of e.g. metal on wood or
a screw application that uses lead washers or fibre wash-
ers as backing.
For a spring-loaded seat, as well as for a soft seat, the max-
imum tightening torque is lower than for a hard seat. A much
longer impact duration is also required.
