[. . . ] ­ Keep battery charger slot free of foreign objects and protect against dirt and humidity. ­ When the battery is outside the battery charger, cover battery terminals to avoid short circuits from metal objects. ­ When drilling or screwing in walls, they must be checked for hidden electric cables or water and gas pipes with a detector. Damaged cables must be replaced immediately by one of our service depots. [. . . ] Remove the battery from the charger and reconnect or allow to cool off to room temperature, then recommence charging. the charging process begins automatically as soon as the battery is in the permissible temperature range. Blinking red ligh: The battery is defective or there is a short between the charging contacts. Should charging still not be possible, please send the battery and battery charger to our nearest service centre. Notes for the correct use of the battery: ­ To obtain the maximum service life, do not recharge the battery immediately after a short period of use but, if possible, discharge to the lower capacity limit and then recharge. The resulting excessive current flow leads to quick discharging and increased wear of the battery. ­ An increasingly shorter operating time per recharging of the battery is an indication that the battery is worn out and must be replaced. As a basic rule, return the faulty machine to our next customer service centre (also in the case of defective mains cables)!With the ON/OFF switch 1 the torque can be continuously controlled in the application selected by the mechanical 2-speed selector and adjusted to process various materials. The ON/OFF switch is blocked in the middle position, thus preventing the drill being switched on unintentionally and protecting the battery from undesired discharge. For battery equipment, the mechanical 2-speed selector permits optimal drilling torques of 0­1600 rpm in 2nd speed and with high transmission in 1st speed (0­470 rpm) very high tractive power even with screws of a large diameter. The switchover is performed by moving the switch 3 until it stops in position 1 or 2. When drilling steel, take care that no swarf enters the ventilation slits of the housing, as these are attracted by the permanently active magnet of the motor and would remain on the motor. The starting torque for a particular screw is set at the adjusting ring 4 according to the scale. The volume of the torque is dependent on various factors ­ type and hardness of the material to be processed, type and length of the screws to be used, but in addition the demands made on the screw connection. The data contained in the following table should be observed as a guideline: Stage 1 = approx. It is advisable to use socket-head screws since their self-centering action ensures safe work. Optimal screwing is achieved when the screwing device is fixed securely in the screw head. Remove the left-hand threaded screw that secures the drill chuck on the drill spindle against unscrewing in left rotation. The drill chuck can then be loosened by lightly striking a Allen key clamped in the drill chuck and screwed off. Clean the flat surfaces on the drill chuck and spindle before mounting. Observe in addition that, when using a rim gear drill chuck, the chuck key must not be attached to the machine with chains, cords or similar means. [. . . ] This electro-tool was manufactured with high precision and subjected to rigorous factory quality controls. Therefore, we guarantee the cost-free correction of fabrication or material defects that occur within 24 months of the date of purchase by the end user. We reserve the right to repair defective parts or replace them with new parts. Improper use or handling as well as opening of the machine by unauthorised repair agencies voids the guarantee. [. . . ]
