Assembly
 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Dust Extraction
 Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered
as carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treat-
ment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
Auxiliary Handle
 Operate your machine only with the auxiliary handle 9.
The auxiliary handle 9 can be set to any position for a secure
and low-fatigue working posture.
– Turn the bottom part of the auxiliary handle 9 in counter-
clockwise direction and swivel the auxiliary handle 9 to the
desired position. Then retighten the bottom part of the
auxiliary handle 9 by turning in clockwise direction.
Adjusting the Drilling Depth (see figure A)
The required drilling depth X can be set with the depth stop 1.
– Loosen the wing bolt for the depth stop adjustment 3 and
insert the depth stop rod into the auxiliary handle 9.
The knurled surface of the depth stop 1 must face down-
ward.
– Pull out the depth stop until the distance between the tip of
the drill bit and the tip of the depth stop corresponds with
the desired drilling depth X.
– Retighten the wing bolt for the depth stop adjustment 3
again.
Changing the Tool
Keyless Chuck(see figure B)
 Press the spindle lock button 11 only when the ma-
chine is at a standstill.
The drill spindle is locked by pressing the spindle lock button
11. This makes quick and easy changing of the tool in the drill
chuck possible.
– Open the keyless chuck 2 by turning in rotation direction
, until the tool can be inserted. Insert the tool.
– Firmly tighten the collar of the keyless chuck 2 by hand in
rotation direction . This automatically locks the drill
chuck.
The locking is released again to remove the tool when the col-
lar is turned in the opposite direction.
Screwdriver Tools
When working with screwdriver bits 13, a universal bit holder
12 should always be used. Use only screwdriver bits that fit
the screw head.
– For driving screws, always position the “Drilling/Impact
Drilling” selector switch 4 to the “Drilling” symbol.
Replacing the Drill Chuck
 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Removing the Securing Screw (see figure C)
– The keyless chuck 2 is secured with a securing screw 14
against unintentional loosening from the drill spindle.
Completely open the keyless chuck 2 and unscrew the se-
curing screw 14 in clockwise direction. Please note that
the securing screw has a left-hand thread.
– If the securing screw 14 is seated tightly, apply a screw-
driver to the screw head and loosen the securing screw by
giving a blow onto the handle of the screwdriver.
Removing the Drill Chuck (see figure D)
– Clamp the short end of a hex key 15 into the keyless chuck
2.
– Place the machine on a firm surface, e. g. a workbench.
Hold the machine firmly, press the spindle lock button 11
and loosen the keyless chuck 2 by turning the Hex key 15
in rotation direction . Loosen a tight keyless chuck by
giving the long end of the Hex key 15 a light blow. Remove
the Hex key from the keyless chuck and completely un-
screw the keyless chuck.
Mounting the Drill Chuck (see figure E)
The keyless chuck is mounted in reverse order.
The drill chuck must be tightened with a tightening
torque of approx. 25–35 Nm.
– Screw the securing screw 14 in anti-clockwise direction in-
to the opened keyless chuck. Always use a new securing
screw, as the threads are covered with a thread-locking
compound that loses its effect after multiple usage.
