Before Starting The Equipment; Operation - EINHELL TE-CD 18-2 Li-i Manual De Instrucciones

5. Before starting the equipment

Be sure to read the following information before
you use your cordless screwdriver for the first
time:
1. Charge the battery pack with the charger
supplied. An empty battery pack requires a
charging period of approximately 0.5-1 hour.
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.

6. Operation

6.1 Charging the LI battery pack (Fig. 2-3)
1. Remove the battery pack (5) from the handle,
pressing the pushlock buttons (8) downwards
to do so.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Insert the power plug of the charger
(6) into the mains socket outlet. The green
LED will then begin to flash.
3. Push the battery pack onto the battery char-
ger.
In section 10 "Charger indicator" you will find a
table with an explanation of the LED indicator on
the charger.
If the battery pack fails to become charged, ple-
ase check
•
whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
•
whether there is proper contact at the char-
ging contacts on the charger.
If the battery still fails to become charged, please
return
•
the charger
•
the battery pack
to our Customer Service Department.
To ensure that the LI battery pack provides
long service you should take care to recharge
it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack
when you notice that the power of the cordless
screwdriver drops.

6.2 Torque setting (Fig. 4 / Item 1)
Important! The tool must be at a standstill
when you set the torque with the setting ring.
The cordless hammer drill/screwdriver is fitted
with a mechanical torque selector.
The torque for a specific size of screw is selected
with the set-collar (1). The correct torque depends
on several factors:
•
on the type and hardness of material in ques-
tion
•
on the type and length screws used
•
on the requirements needing to be met by the
screwed joint.
The clutch disengages with a grating sound to
indicate when the set torque is reached.
6.3 Drilling/hammer drilling (Fig. 4)
•
For drilling purpose, adjust the torque setting
(1) to the setting "Drill".
•
For hammer drilling purpose, adjust the
torque setting (1) to the setting "Hammer".
In the drill and hammer drill settings the slip cou-
pling is non-functional. The maximum torque is
available for drilling and hammer 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. To avoid causing damage to
the gearing, the direction of rotation must only be
changed when the screwdriver is at a standstill.
When the slide switch is in the middle position,
the On/Off switch is blocked.
6.5 On/Off switch (Fig. 5 / Item 4)
Infinitely variable speed control is possible with
the On/Off switch. The further you press the
switch, the higher the speed of the battery-powe-
red drill/screwdriver.
6.6 Changing over from 1st gear to 2nd gear
(Fig. 6 / Item 7)
You can work at a higher or lower speed depen-
ding on the position of the selector switch. To avo-
id damaging the gear unit you should only change
over gears when the tool has stopped.
