INTENDED USE
The cordless drill/screwdriver is designed for
tightening and undoing screws, for drilling in
wood, metal and plastic, in each case when
using the appropriate bits. The equipment is to
be used only for its prescribed purpose.
OPERATION
Operation of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries share many characteris-
tics with conventional batteries. The major
difference is that Lithium-ion batteries do not
have a “memory” and do not require to be
completely discharged periodically. It is recom-
mended to charge Lithium-ion batteries after
each use so they will be fully charged when
needed.
Lithium-ion batteries perform best and deliver
peak output power at room temperature.
When operated in lower temperatures, the
battery output will be reduced.
Note: A fully charged battery will loose about
2% of its charge per month during storage.
Before use
The battery must be charged before using it for
the rst time.
Removing the battery from the machine
• Push the battery release button (8) and
pull the battery (7) out of the machine.
WARNING: Do not try to remove the battery
without pressing the battery release button.
The drill or battery could be damaged.
Inserting the battery into the machine
Ensure that the exterior of the battery is clean
and dry before connecting to the charger or
machine.
• Insert the battery (7) into the machine,
push the battery further forward until it
clicks into place.
Note: Make sure the battery and machine are
lined up correctly. If the battery does not slide
onto the machine easily, don’t force it. Instead,
remove the battery; check the top of battery
and the machine slot are clean and undam-
aged and that the contacts are not bent.
Charging the Battery
WARNING: Failure to follow the correct proce-
dure when charging batteries will result in
permanent damage.
1. Remove the battery pack (7) from the
handle by pressing the battery locking
clips (8) on the left and right side of the
battery pack (7).
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same
as that marked on the rating plate. Plug
the battery charger (11a) into the power
socket and connect the charging cable to
the charging adapter (11b). The green LED
on the charging adapter (11b) will turn on.
3. Place the battery pack (7) into the charg-
ing adapter. The green LED and the red
LED will turn on to indicate that the battery
pack is being charged.
4. When the battery pack is fully charged
after approx 3 – 5 hours, the red LED will
go out again.
Note: Make sure the battery and battery
charger are lined up correctly. If the Battery
does not slide onto the battery charger easily,
don’t force it. Instead, remove the battery;
check the top of battery and the battery
charger slot are clean and undamaged and
that the contacts are not bent.
Battery Charge Level
IMPORTANT: When a low charge level is
indicated be aware the tool may stop operating
while using the tool. In some instances this
may be dangerous. It is recommended to
always ensure the battery pack has a good
charge level.
Notes about Battery Charging
• Let a hot battery cool down before charg-
ing it.
• The battery should be charged at ambient
temperatures between 10°C and 40°C
(ideally around 20°C).
• After charging, allow 15 minutes for the
battery to cool before use.
• Ensure that the charger is disconnected
from the mains supply after use, and is
stored correctly.
• Do not leave batteries on charge for
extended periods and never store batter-
ies on charge.
