Safety Warnings
Industrial Cordless Angle Wrench
Hold power tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may run into hidden
wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical
wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoid-
able, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers
feeding this worksite.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held
more secure than by hand.
Before any work on the machine (e.g., main-
tenance, tool change, etc.) as well as during
transport and storage, set the rotational di-
rection switch to the centre position. Unin-
tentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
Hold the machine with a firm grip. High re-
action torque can briefly occur while driving
in and loosening screws.
Use only flawless tool bits that are not
worn. Defective tool bits can break, for ex-
ample, and cause injury or damage.
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.
Be careful when long screws are screwed
in. Depending on the type of screw and the
tool bit used, there is a danger of slipping.
Long screws are often difficult to control and
the danger exists that the tool bit may slip off
the fastener head and cause injury.

Pay attention to the direction of rotation
that is set before switching on the power
tool. For example, when a screw is to be
loosened and the direction of rotation is set
so that the screw is tightened, this can lead
to a strong torque reaction of the power tool.
Do not use this tool as a drill. Tools equipped
with shut-off clutches are not designed for
drilling applications. The clutch can shut off
automatically and without warning.
Battery
Avoid unintentional switching on. Ensure
the On/Off switch is in the off position be-
fore inserting battery pack. Carrying the
power tool with your finger on the On/Off
switch or inserting the battery pack into
power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
Do not open the battery. Danger of short-
circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g.,
also against continuous sun irradiation
and fire. There is danger of explosion.
Do not short-circuit the battery. There is
danger of explosion.
Battery leakage may occur under extreme
usage or temperature conditions. When a re-
chargeable battery leaks, avoid contact with
the skin or eyes. The battery liquid is caustic
and could cause chemical burns to tissues. If
liquid comes in contact with skin, wash quick-
ly with soap and water, then with lemon juice
or vinegar. If the liquid contacts your eyes,
flush them with water for a minimum of
10 minutes and seek medical attention.
