Caution must be exercised when driving screws into
hard materials (driving screws with metric or
imperial threads into steel)! The screw head may
break or high reverse torques may build up.
High forces are released if the tool jams or catches.
Always hold the machine firmly, adopt a steady
stance and focus on your work.
Secure small workpieces, for example by clamping
them in a vice.
Do not keep the ventilation slots closed.
When using the machine with material
number 600323000 in the drill stand
627100000, all operating instructions of the
drill stand must be observed!
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING - Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
- arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials, such
as some timber types (like oak or beech dust),
metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g.
allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let
dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national
regulations for your material, staff, application and
place of application (e.g. occupational health and
safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this
way, fewer particles enter the environment in an
uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream towards yourself or nearby
persons or towards dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or an air purifier,
- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep
it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush protective gear.

6. Initial Operation
Before commissioning, check that the rated
mains voltage and mains frequency stated on
the type plate match your power supply.
Always install an RCD with a maximum trip
current of 30 mA upstream.
Extension cables must correspond to the power
consumption of the machine (cf Technical
Specifications). If using a roll of cable, always roll up
the cable completely.
6.1 Assembly of side handle (only for
600323260)
When the drill bit jams, very high torques may
be present. Therefore, for safety reasons,
always use the additional handle () with adapter ().
In the event of jamming, it is not sufficient to hold the
machine only at the handle (). There is a risk of
injury to the user.
See fig.A p. 2: Screw additional handle () into the
thread () of the adapter () and the adapter () into the
thread on the device and tighten both firmly by
hand.
Due to the high torque that can occur
when operating the tool, the tool must be
braced against a solid object.
7. Use
7.1 Switching on and off
Avoid load on the machine until it come to a
standstill.
Torque activation:
Switching on: press the trigger switch ().
230 V: Press in the trigger switch to increase the
rotational speed.
Switching off: release the trigger switch ().
Continuous operation
(ONLY for use in drill stand):
Switching on: press the trigger switch () and lock
with locking button ().
Switching off: press and release the trigger switch
().
Use the locking button () only when the
machine is in the drill stand.
