▪ Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100 °C, sealing and insulating separators
and other polymer components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte leakage and/or
internal short circuiting leading to heat generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do not
dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion and/or intense burning may result.
▪ Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the
battery, proceed as follows:
− Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
− In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below:
✓ Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or
vinegar.
✓ In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean water for at least 10 minutes.
Consult a physician.
Fire hazard! Avoid short-circuiting the contacts of a detached battery. Do
not incinerate the battery.

▪ Do not probe the charger.
▪ The charger is intended for indoor use only.
8 FEATURES
8.1 Li-ion battery (8)
Advantages of Li-ion batteries:
▪ Li-ion batteries have a higher capacity/weight ratio (more power for less heavy, more
compact, battery).
▪ No memory effect (capacity loss after several charge/discharge cycles) like other type
batteries (Ni-Cd, Ni-MeH,...).
▪ Limited self-discharge (also see chapter: Storage).
8.2 Forward/reverse selector (right/left rotation selector) (3)
Your tool has a forward/reverse selector located above the switch trigger.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the gearbox, always allow the chuck to come to a complete
stop before changing the direction of rotation or selecting another speed (HI-LO). To stop,
release the trigger switch.
8.3 Variable speed
Your tool has a variable speed switch. The rotational speed and torque will in-/ decrease
equivalently to applied trigger pressure.
8.4 LED light (6)
Your tool is equipped with 1 LED light at the front.
8.5 TPR soft grip
Your tool is equipped with TPR soft grip and protective parts. TPR (Thermoplastic rubber) is
elastic, chock absorbing and environmental friendly (recyclable).
