Fitting / removing the depth gauge (optional)
Note
When driving screws with a sealing washer, use a depth gauge suitable for the diameter
of the sealing washer (accessory). When the depth gauge is correctly adjusted the screw
seal will be correctly compressed.
The depth gauge is attached to the metal construction screwdriver by way of a snap-on
connection and can be simply pulled off or pushed on.
Setting the depth gage (accessory)
Using the protective cap
Note
When the depth gauge is not fitted, the guard protects the depth gauge holder from dirt
and damage.
Fitting / removing the accessory tool
CAUTION
Risk of injury. The accessory tool may be hot or have sharp edges.
▶ Wear protective gloves when using the power tool and when changing accessory tools.
Note
After fitting the drill bit, grip it and pull it in order to check that it is securely engaged.
Fitting / removing the screw guide (optional)
Note
Use of the ‚Hilti' ST-SG 5.5/6.5 screw guide is recommended for sandwich panel screws.
Setting forward or reverse rotation
Note
An interlock prevents switching while the motor is running.
The control switch is locked when the forward/reverse switch is in the middle position
(safety lock).
Setting the torque
Safe operation
WARNING
Electric shock A fastener coming into contact with a concealed electric cable may result
in electric shock.
▶ Never use the depth gauge or chuck as a gripping area.
Note
Always hold the tool by the grip and/or with the hands on plastic parts of the casing (in-
line grip).
Switching on
Note
The metal construction screwdriver must be pressed lightly against the working surface
as it will otherwise not start (for safety reasons). The running speed can be controlled
smoothly right up to maximum speed by varying how far the control switch is pressed in.
Switching on in sustained operating mode
Note
The lockbutton can be pressed in while the control switch is pressed. The metal construc-
tion screwdriver then runs in sustained operating mode. The lockbutton makes the tool
less tiring to use as the control switch does not have to be constantly pressed.
Switching off after sustained operation
Note
In order to be able to switch off from sustained operating mode quickly at any time, keep
your hand close to the control switch. Pressing the control switch again causes the lock-
button to jump back into its original position.
