Safety information 1 General safety information for power tools Important. When using equipment, a few safety precautions must be observed to avoid injuries and damage. Please read the complete operating instructions and safety information with due care. Keep these operating instructions in a safe place so that the information is available at all times. If you give the equipment to any other person, hand over these operating instructions and the safety information as well.
2. Electrical safety •• The plug on the power tool must fit into the socket. The socket must not be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs together with power tools with a protective earth. Unmodified plugs and matching sockets will reduce the risk of an electric shock. •• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating systems, stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of suffering an electric shock if your body is earthed.
•• •• •• •• have your finger on the switch while carrying the power tool or if you connect the tool to the power supply while it is switched on, this may cause accidents. Remove all adjusting tools or wrenches before you switch on the power tool. Any tool or wrench in a rotating part of the tool could cause injuries. Avoid abnormal working postures. Make sure you stand squarely and keep your balance at all times. This will enable you to control the power tool better in unexpected situations.
•• •• Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges will jam less and are easier to control. Use the power tool, accessory plug-in tools, etc. as set out in these instructions. Take the conditions in your work area and the job in hand into account. Using electric tools for purposes other than the one for which they are designed can result in dangerous situations. 5.
Additional safety instructions We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries which feature maximum power density, durability and safety. The battery cells have a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded. These data are then used exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible battery packs.
•• •• •• •• •• Do not completely discharge batteries. The cells of batteries are damaged when they are completely discharged. The most common cause of complete battery discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of partly discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage only after it has been fully charged. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads.
•• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating plate. Never connect it to a different mains voltage. Protect the battery charger and its cable from damage and sharp edges. Have damaged cables repaired without delay by a qualified electrician. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the cordless tool out of children‘s reach.
Protection from environmental influences •• Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles. •• Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous cell damage. •• Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near vapors and inflammable liquids. •• Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry conditions and an ambient temperature of 10-40°C.
10°C- 40°C The battery should be charged only at a temperature between 10°C and 40°C. To avoid causing damage to the gearing, change the gear only when the equipment is at a standstill. Store the battery only in dry rooms with an ambient temperature of +10°C to +40°C. Place only charged batteries in storage (charged at least 40%). 12 AFTER SALES SUPPORT WZAS_14_4_1_Li_UK_SPK7.indb 12 t 0151 649 1500 D 1890 946 6244 (Charged at local rates) www.einhell.co.uk WZAS 14,4/1 Li XI/18/2012 30.07.

4 Use The cordless drill/screwdriver is designed for tightening and undoing screws, as well as for drilling in wood, metal and plastic. The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications.
Before putting into operation 5 Be sure to read the following information before you put the cordless screwdriver into operation: 1. Charge the battery pack only with the charger supplied. 2. Only ever use sharp drill bits and screwdriver bits which are suitable for the purpose and in faultless condition. 3. Always check for concealed electric cables and gas and water pipes when drilling and screwing in walls. 17 AFTER SALES SUPPORT WZAS_14_4_1_Li_UK_SPK7.
6 Operation 6.1 Charging the battery (Fig. 2-3) Important! At below 10° C, charging is reduced in keeping with the charger‘s intelligent safety concept. This may mean that the battery pack will not be fully charged. At below 0° C and above 40° C there is no charging performed. The battery is protected from exhaustive discharge. An integrated protective circuit automatically switches off the equipment when the battery is flat. In this case the bit chuck will cease to turn.
2 3 1. 12 a 8 5 2. 5 If the battery pack fails to charge, check for the following: •• Voltage at the socket-outlet •• Proper contact at the charging contacts in the battery charger If the battery pack still fails to charge, send •• the battery charger •• and the battery pack to our customer services department. To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
6.3 Drilling (Fig. 4/Item 1) For drilling adjust the setting ring for the torque to the last setting “Drill”. In this drill setting the slip coupling is non-functional. The maximum torque is available for drilling. 6.4 Changeover switch (Fig. 5/Item 3) The slide switch above the ON/OFF switch is for setting the direction of rotation of the cordless screwdriver and for preventing the cordless screwdriver from being switched on inadvertently. You can select between clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation.
6.6 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 6/Item 10) Press the button for the battery capacity indicator (11). The battery capacity indicator (10) indicates the charge state of the battery on 3 colored LEDs. All the LEDs are lit: The battery is fully charged. The yellow and red LEDs are lit: The battery has an adequate remaining charge. Red LED: The battery is empty, recharge the battery. 6.7 Changing the tool (Fig. 7) Important.
6.8 Screwing It is advisable to use self-centering screws (e.g. Torx, cross recessed head) as these will enable you to work safely and reliably. Always make sure that the bit used is of the same size and shape as the screw. Set the torque to suit the screw size as specified in the instructions. 6.9 LED lamp (Fig. 1/Item 9) The LED lamp (9) can be used to additionally illuminate the area where you want to screw or drill. The LED lamp (9) will be lit automatically as soon as you press the ON/ OFF switch (4).
