Accessories - Metabo SSW 18 LTX 600 Originalbetriebsanleitung

If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.
"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and
signal indicator: (9)
- Press the button (8), the LEDs indicate the charge
level.
- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat and must be recharged.
Removal:
Press the battery pack release (7) button and pull
the battery pack (5) forwards.
Inserting:
Slide in the battery pack (5) until it engages.
6.2 Setting the direction of rotation, engag-
ing the transporting safety device
(switch-on lock)
Do not actuate the rotation selector switch or
engage the transportation lock (2) unless the
motor has stopped completely!
Actuate the rotation selector switch / Engage the
transportation lock (2)
R = Right rotation set
(insert screws)
L = Left rotation set
(remove screws)
0 = Central position: transportation lock setting
(switch-on lock)
6.3 Switching on and off
Switching on: press the trigger switch (3).
Switching off: release the trigger switch (3).
6.4 Speed / Tightening torque
The speed and tightening torque are connected
directly. The lower the speed, the lower the tight-
ening torque.
The speed and tightening torque can be adjusted
steplessly by pressing the trigger (3) firmly or lightly,
thus adapting to working conditions.
You can use the setting wheel (5) on the SSW 18
LTX 400 BL to adjust the rotational speed and tight-
ening torque (12 stages).
Recommendation: determine the correct setting
by carrying out trial screwdriving.
6.5 Changing SSW... screwdriving bits
Inserting screwdriving bit: Fit the tool on the
square attachment (1) until the limit stop.
Removing screwdriving bit: Pull the tool from the
square attachment (1).
The screwdriving bit used must match the
screw.
Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.
7. Use
Mount the machine on the screw, ensuring it is
aligned straight.
The screwdriving process has two elements:
inserting the screw and
tightening the screw with the percussion mech-
anism.
The tightening torque depends on the impact dura-
tion.
With an impact duration of approx. 5 seconds, the
maximum tightening torque has been reached.
The torque curve depends on the type of applica-
tion:
With a hard screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in hard material such as metal), maximum
tightening torque is already reached after a short
impact duration (a).
With a soft screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in soft material such as wood), a longer
impact duration (b) is required.
Recommendation: determine the correct impact
duration by carrying out trial screwdriving.
Caution! With small screws, maximum torque can
be reached even below an impact duration of 0.5
seconds.
- This is why the duration of the screwdriving
process must be monitored exactly.
- Adjust the tightening torque by pressing firmly or
lightly on the trigger (3), ensuring that the screw is
not damaged or that the screw head does not tear
off.
