This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and efficient use of the Einhell TP-CD 18/50-C Li-i BL cordless hammer drill/screwdriver. Always read the safety instructions before use.

Device description
The device features a torque selector, battery capacity indicator, changeover switch for rotation direction, ON/OFF switch, gear selector (1st/2nd gear), quick-change drill chuck, LED lamp, and an Anti-Kickback system.
Operation
To charge the battery, remove it from the handle by pressing the pushlock buttons. Connect the charger to the mains and slide the battery onto the charger. The green LED indicates charging status. To change tools, set the rotation switch to the center position, open the chuck, insert the tool, and tighten the chuck securely.
Torque and gear settings
The torque is adjusted using the setting ring. The correct torque depends on the material, screw size, and length. Use the selector switch to choose between driving (screw), drilling (bit), or impact drilling (hammer). Always change gears and torque settings only when the tool is at a standstill.
Anti-Kickback system
The device is equipped with an Anti-Kickback system that detects sudden rotation due to blockage and switches off the device. If active, the green status LED lights up. If a kickback is detected, the device switches off and the LED flashes. The system can be temporarily deactivated using the Anti-Kickback button.
Cleaning and maintenance
Keep air vents and the motor housing free of dust and dirt. Clean the device regularly with a moist cloth and soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents. There are no internal parts requiring maintenance.
Charger indicator
The charger features LED indicators to show the status: flashing green means ready for use; solid red means charging; solid green means charged and ready; flashing red/green indicates a fault or temperature issue.
