The values given are valid for a nominal voltage [U] of 230 V. For diffe-
rent voltages and models for specific countries, these values can vary.

Noise/Vibration Information

Sound emission values determined according to EN 60745-2-2.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 94 dB(A); Sound power level
105 dB(A). Uncertainty K =1.5 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a (triax vector sum) and uncertainty
h
K determined according to EN 60745:
Impact tightening of fasteners of the maximum capacity of the

tool: a =4 m/s , K=0.5 m/s .
h
The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with anoth-
er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This
may significantly increase the exposure level over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.

Changing the Tool
 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
 When working with an application tool, pay attention
that the application tool is firmly seated on the tool
holder. When the application tool is not firmly connected
with the tool holder, it can come loose again and not be
controlled.
– Slide the application tool 1 onto the square drive of the tool
holder 2.
Operation
Method of Operation
The tool holder 2 with the tool is driven by an electric motor
via a gear and impact mechanism.
The working procedure is divided into two phases:
Screwing in and tightening (impact mechanism in action).
The impact mechanism is activated as soon as the screwed
connection runs tight and thus load is put on the motor. In this
instance, the impact mechanism converts the power of the
motor to steady rotary impacts. When loosening screws or
nuts, the process is reversed.
Overloading the motor is not possible, as the hammer mecha-
nism disengages when reaching the rated load.
Starting Operation
 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
