PARKSIDE
A finely adjusted torque ensures the highest pre-
cision in all screwdriving conditions. Start off with
a low setting (1 or 2 on the scale
) and try in-
creasing it by stages until the best setting is
reached.
The 16 torque settings cover the range up to ap-
prox. 8 Nm.
If the value of the set torque is reached, the ma-
chine disengages the drive connection to the
chuck. By doing this, screws can be driven to a
predetermined depth, which is ideal for repetitive
work.
For drilling, turn the selector to the setting.
Slide the selector forward (setting: Drill) to work
with the tool set at its optimum for drilling.The full
torque of approx. 18 Nm is applied.
Automatic – spindle lock – a simple
way to change bits
Your rechargeable electric drill driver has a fully au-
tomatic spindle lock and is fitted with an en-
closed keyless chuck incorporating the latest tech-
nology ”Made in Germany”.
Once the motor has come to a halt, the drive shaft is
automatically locked so that the chuck
can be
opened simply by turning it .
After you have inserted the required bit and fixed it
in place by turning the chuck , you can immedi-
ately continue working (the symbols above show the
direction of rotation viewed into the workpiece, i.e.
with the chuck pointing away from you). The spindle
lock releases itself automatically when the motor is
started (by operation of ON/OFF switch
).
Sensitive – switch operation
The trigger switch allows you to exercise fine
control over the speed of the drill to suit the par-
ticular circumstances. On delicate workpieces for
example, you can work carefully by using light
pressure on the trigger switch.
Increasing the pressure on the trigger switch al-
lows you to increase the speed as necessary up to
the maximum.
To take screws out, just reverse the direction
by moving the switch
to rotate the shaft anti-
clockwise.
The integral electric brake ensures the shaft
quickly stops rotating – as soon as the trigger
switch is released – so that you can get to work
again fast.
Tips and tricks from the professionals
When screwing into wood, metal and other
materials you must always observe the
following advice:
1. Before you use
the drill driver, check whether the
screw or drill bit is properly fitted, i.e. centralised
in the chuck.
2. The dimensions and sha
pe of the screw bits make
them readily recognisable. If you are unsure al-
ways tr
y the particular screw bit out to see whether
it sits in the screw head without play. Try a num-
ber of different bits.
3. Torque: Smaller screws and bits in particular can
be easily damaged or become worn if they are
used with too high a torque and/or speed.
4. Hard screw
bed: Particularly high torques can oc-
cur e.g. with metal screws used with socket tool
bits. Select a low speed.
5. Soft screw
bed: The torque is small. You should
however also select a low speed in order not to
damage the workpiece surface by contact with the
metal screw head. Use a countersink.
When drilling into wood, metal and other
materials you must always observe
the following advice:
1. With small diameter
drill bits use a high drill
speed. For large diameter drill bits, use a lo
w
drill speed.
2. For hard materials, select a low drill speed.For soft
materials, select a high drill speed.
3. Take the rotating drill bit out of the hole frequently
