Using the 3 hour charger
To charge the battery (5), remove it from the tool and slide

the charger receptacle (9) onto the battery.
Plug in the charger (8).

The battery will become warm while charging. After approx.
3 hours of charging, the battery will be sufficiently charged for
use in regular applications. After approx. 6 hours of charging,
the battery will be fully charged.
Remove the charger receptacle from the battery.

Warning! Do not replace the charger unit with a regular mains
plug.
Using the 1 hour charger
To charge the battery (5), remove it from the tool and

insert it into the charger (8). The battery will only fit into
the charger in one way. Do not force. Be sure that the
battery is fully seated in the charger.
Plug in the charger.

Check if the charging indicator (10) is red. If the charging

indicator lights up is green, the battery is either fully
charged or too hot and cannot be charged. If this happens,
remove the battery from the charger, let the battery cool
down for approx. 1 hour and re-insert it.
After approx. 1 hour of charging, the charging indicator (10)
will change colour from red to green. The battery is now fully
charged.
Remove the battery from the charger.

Checking the battery condition (fig. E)
This tool is fitted with a battery charge indicator, which allows
you to check the condition of the battery.
Press and hold down the button (15).

Check to see how many of the lights (6) are on:

1 light
2 lights
3 lights
Selecting the direction of rotation (fig. F)
For drilling and for tightening screws, use forward (clockwise)
rotation. For loosening screws or removing a jammed drill bit,
use reverse (counterclockwise) rotation.
To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

(2) to the left.
To select reverse rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

to the right.
To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse slider into the


Selecting the torque (fig. G)
This tool is fitted with a unique collar to set the torque for
various screwdriving and drilling applications. Large screws
and hard workpiece materials require a higher torque setting
than small screws and soft workpiece materials. The collar
has a wide range of settings represented by symbols to suit
your application. For the definition of the symbol refer to the
listing below.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar (3) to

the symbol corresponding to the appropriate drilling
application by aligning the symbol with the marking (16).
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If

you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as
follows:
- Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.
- Tighten the first screw.
- If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is
achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct
setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.
