 Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
 Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another bat-
tery pack.
 Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from oth-
er metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-
ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
Service
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Industrial Cordless Angle
Wrenches
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the fastener may con-
tact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the fastener may con-
tact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may

make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool in-
sert jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that
can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when:
– the power tool is subject to overload or
– it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
 Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque
can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-
ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.
 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and
lead to loss of control over the power tool.
The dust developing during sanding,
WARNING
sawing, grinding, drilling and similar
operations can act carcinogenic, teratogenic or mutagen-
ic. Some of the substances contained in these dusts are:
– Lead in lead-based paints and varnishes;
– Crystalline silica in bricks, cement and other masonry
work;
– Arsenic and chromate in chemically treated wood.
The risk of disease depends on how often you are exposed to
these substances. To reduce the risk, you should work only in
well ventilated rooms with appropriate protective equipment
(e. g. with specially designed respirators that filter out even
the smallest dust particles).
 Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance,
tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and stor-
age, set the rotational direction switch to the centre
position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
 Avoid unintentional switching on. Ensure the On/Off
switch is in the off position before inserting battery
pack. Carrying the power tool with your finger on the
On/Off switch or inserting the battery pack into power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
 Use only flawless tool bits that are not worn. Defective
tool bits can break, for example, and cause injury or dam-
age.
 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.
 Be careful when long screws are screwed in. Depend-
ing on the type of screw and the tool bit used, there is a
danger of slipping. Long screws are often difficult to con-
trol and the danger exists that the tool bit may slip off the
fastener head and cause injury.
 Pay attention to the direction of rotation that is set be-
fore switching on the power tool. For example, when a
screw is to be loosened and the direction of rotation is set
so that the screw is tightened, this can lead to a strong
torque reaction of the power tool.
