With a soft tool shank, retightening may be required
after a short period of operation.
Note: The grating sound that may be heard after the
drill chuck is opened is purely functional; it is
stopped by turning the sleeve in the opposite direc-
tion.
With a soft tool shank, retightening may be required
after a short period of operation.
If the chuck is very securely tightened: Unplug. Hold
drill chuck using an open-end spanner at the flats on
its head, and turn the sleeve (2) vigourously in the
direction of "AUF, RELEASE".

Metabo VibraTech (MVT)
For reduced vibrations and less stress on the
hands.
Always apply a moderate amount of pressure to the
handle when pushing down the machine and do not
force. Vibrations are reduced most effectively at the
central position (9).
8. Maintenance, cleaning
Ventilation slits:
Clean the ventilation slits on the machine occasion-
ally.
KHE 3251:
- Always keep the spindle (6) clean and apply a
light coating of grease. (Special grease: Order
No.: 6.31800)
- Keyless chuck (1) cleaning:
After prolonged use, hold the chuck vertically, with
the opening facing down, and fully close it and
open it several times. The dust collected falls from
the opening. The application of cleaning spray to
the jaws and jaw openings at regular intervals is
recommended.

Emission values
Using these values, you can estimate the
emissions from this power tool and compare these
with the values emitted by other power tools. The
actual values may be higher or lower, depending on
the particular application and the condition of the
tool or power tool. In estimating the values, you
should also include work breaks and periods of low
use. Based on the estimated emission values,
specify protective measures for the user - for
example, any organisational steps that must be put
in place.
