Operation
Charging the Battery
Remove the battery pack (5) from the handle by pressing the pushlock buttons (8). Connect the charger (6) to the mains; the green LED will flash. Slide the battery onto the charger. Refer to the charger indicator table for status meanings.
Torque Setting
The tool features a mechanical torque selector. Use the set-collar (1) to adjust the torque based on the screw size and material hardness. The clutch disengages with a grating sound when the set torque is reached. Important: Only adjust the torque when the tool is at a standstill.
Gear Selection
Use the selector switch (7) to choose between 1st and 2nd gear. Only change gears when the tool has stopped to avoid damaging the gear unit.
Anti-Kickback System
The tool features an anti-kickback system that switches off the tool if it suddenly rotates due to jamming. The status LED (12) shines green when active. If triggered, the LED flashes. Use the button (11) to temporarily deactivate the system.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Always pull out the mains plug before cleaning. Keep safety devices, air vents, and the motor housing free of dust and dirt. Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents.
Troubleshooting
If the battery fails to charge, check the mains voltage and the contacts on the charger. If it still fails, return the charger and battery pack to our Customer Service Department.
