The vibration emission level given in this infor-
mation sheet has been measured in accordance
with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and
may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
The declared vibration emission level repre-
sents the main applications of the tool. However
if the tool is used for different applications, with
different accessories or poorly maintained, the
vibration emission may differ. This may signifi-
cantly increase the exposure level over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibra-
tion should also take into account the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is run-
ning but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the to-
tal working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration such
as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep
the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Assembly

Changing the Tool

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
When working with an application tool, pay
attention that the application tool is firmly
seated on the tool holder. When the applica-
tion tool is not firmly connected with the tool
holder, it can come loose again and not be
controlled.
– Slide the application tool 1 onto the square
drive of the tool holder 2.
Operation

Method of Operation

The tool holder 2 with the tool is driven by an
electric motor via a gear and impact mechanism.
The working procedure is divided into two phas-
es:
Screwing in and tightening (impact mechanism
in action).
The impact mechanism is activated as soon as
the screwed connection runs tight and thus load
is put on the motor. In this instance, the impact
mechanism converts the power of the motor to
steady rotary impacts. When loosening screws
or nuts, the process is reversed.
Overloading the motor is not possible, as the
hammer mechanism disengages when reaching
the rated load.
