[. . . ] The battery-powered pneumatic drill hammer can be used universally for hammer drilling and drilling as well as for screwdriving in wood, metal and plastic. This pneumatic drill hammer is not suited for chiselling work (also not with pointed chisels). When using battery-driven tools basic safety precautions are to be taken, including the following, in order to reduce the risk of fire, batteries leaking and persons becoming injured. Before operating the machine, please read through the operating instructions completely, follow the Safety Instructions in this manual as well as the general Safety Instructions for Power Tools in the accompanying booklet. [. . . ] Charging Procedure The quick, computerised battery charger has an extensive function for monitoring the battery and charging parameters and charges the battery with the optimum quick-charging current in each case, depending upon the temperature. This enables the shortest charging times and a long battery service life. Fully insert the battery into the charging slot until it is heard and/or felt to notch. For removing the battery, press both lock-release buttons until the battery can be taken out of the battery charger without any resistance. After completion of the quick charging process, the charging unit switches automatically to trickle charging.

Make sure the charging points provide good contact. 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. Avoid to the extent possible the blocking of the machine. 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. Do not carry out any repair on the charger yourself!As a basic rule, return the faulty machine to our next customer service centre (also in the case of defective mains cables)!English Putting into Operation 9 Inserting/Removing Tools Before all work on the machine itself, always set the rotational direction switch 7 to the middle position.
