[. . . ] F) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. [. . . ] Be prepared for high reaction torque that can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when: -- the power tool is subject to overload or -- it becomes wedged in the workpiece. Hold the machine only by the insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may run into hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. High reaction torque can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand. Take protective measures when dust can develop during working that is harmful to one's health, combustible or explosive. example: Some dusts are regarded as carcinogenic. Wear a dust mask and work with dust/chip extraction when connectable. Dust from light alloys can burn or explode. Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it down. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium ion battery of your power tool. note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full capacity of the battery, charge the battery for at least 3 hours in the battery charger before using for the first time. The lithium ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates. Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the machine has been automatically switched off. ) as well as during transport and storage, set the rotational direction switch to the centre position. unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can lead to injuries. The drill spindle is locked when the On/Off switch 12 is not pressed. This makes quick, convenient and easy changing of the tool in the drill chuck possible. [. . . ] Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is switched off. Tips After longer periods of working at low speed, allow the machine to cool down by running it for approx. Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it is advisable to predrill a pilot hole with the core diameter of the thread to approx. The 3 LEDs of the battery charge-control indicator 10 and the Power Light 9 flash rapidly when the battery temperature is not within the operting temperature range of ­10 to +70°C. [. . . ]
