Original instructions

1. Declaration of Conformity

We declare under our sole responsibility: These
impact drills, identified by type and serial number
*1), comply with all relevant requirements of the
directives *2) and standards *3). Technical file at *4)
- Fig. P

2. Specified Use

The machine is suitable for drilling, without impact,
in metal, wood, plastic and similar materials and for
impact drilling in concrete, stone and similar mate-
rials. It is also suitable for thread tapping and for
screwdriving (not SB 850-2).
The user bears sole responsibility for any damage
caused by improper use.
Generally accepted accident prevention regula-
tions and the enclosed safety information must be
observed.

3. General Safety Instructions

For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool, pay atten-
tion to all parts of the text that are marked
with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instruc-
tions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow all safety warn-
ings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety instructions and information for
future reference.
Pass on your power tool only together with these
documents.

4. Special Safety Instructions

Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Use the additional handle supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the electrical tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or in case of a power cut.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
Smaller workpieces must be secured such that they
are not carried along with the drill bit when drilling
(e.g. by clamping in a vice or on a work bench with
screw clamps).
Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove
chips and similar material only with the machine at
standstill.
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety
clutch responds, switch off the machine immedi-
ately! If the tool jams or catches, the power supply
to the motor is restricted. Due to the strong force
which can arise, always hold the machine with both
hands using the handles provided, stand securely
and concentrate.
The Metabo S-automatic safety clutch must not be
used for torque control.
Caution with hard screwdriving (driving of screws
with either a metric or an imperial thread into steel)!
The head of the screw may rip off or high restoring
torques may be incurred at the handle.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain substances known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these substances are: lead (from lead-
based paints), crystalline silica (from bricks cement,
etc.), additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservative), some types of wood (like oak and
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce exposure to these substances: work in a
well ventilated area and wear protective equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use only suitable accessories. 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 at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping
or blowing stirs up dust.
