ENGLISH
If the charging indicators continues flashing red at a fast
u
rate, use a different battery to determine if the charging
process works properly.
If the replaced battery charges correctly, the original
u
battery is defective and should be returned to a service
centre for recycling.
If the new battery gives the same indication as the original
u
battery, take the charger to be tested at an authorised
services centre.
Note: It may take as long as 60 minutes to determine that
the battery is defective. If the battery is too hot or too
cold, the LED will alternately blink red, fast and slow, one
flash at each speed and repeat.
Selecting the torque or drill position (fig. D)
This tool is fitted with a collar to set the torque for tightening
screws.
For drilling, set the collar (8) to the drilling position by
u
aligning the symbol with the marking (13).
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting.
u
If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as
u
follows:
Set the collar (8) to position 1.
t
Tighten the first screw.
t
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is
t
achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct
setting.
Selecting the direction of rotation (fig. E)
For drilling and tightening screws,
use forward (clockwise) rotation. For loosening screws or
removing a jammed drill bit, use reverse (counterclockwise)
rotation.
To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider
u
(2) to the left.
To select reverse rotation, push the forward/reverse slider
u
to the right.
To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse slider into the
u
centre position.
Drilling/screwdriving
Select forward or reverse rotation using the forward/re-
u
verse slider (2).
To switch the tool on, press the variable speed switch (1).

Hints for optimum use
Drilling
Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the drill
u
bit.
Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of the
u
workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.
Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may
u
splinter.
Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in wood.
u
Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.
u
Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.
u
Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron
u
and brass.
Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre of
u
the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy.
Screwdriving
Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.
u
If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small
u
amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line
u
with the screw.
