5. Safety precautions
5.1 Basic information concerning safety
In addition to the information relevant to safety given in each of the sections of these operating instructions, the following points must be strictly observed at all times. When used with an electric tool, the safety precautions listed in the operating instructions for the correspond­ing electric tool must be observed.
5.2 Take the necessary precautions to make the
workplace safe
Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated.
Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could cause
injury should be removed from the working area. Untidi­ness at the workplace can lead to accidents.
Use clamps or a vice to secure the workpiece. The
workpiece is thus held more securely than by hand and both hands remain free to operate the tool.
Wear eye protection.
Wear suitable working clothing. Do not wear loose
clothing, loose long hair or jewelry as these can become caught up in moving parts. Wear suitable headgear if you have long hair.
It is recommended that rubber gloves and shoes or
boots with non-slip soles are worn when working out­doors.
When working, keep other persons, particularly chil-
dren, outside the range of the tool. Do not permit other persons to touch the tool. Keep other persons away from the area in which you are working.
Avoid unfavorable body positions when working. Work
from a secure stance and always stay in balance.
To avoid tripping and falling when working, always lead
the supply cord, extension cord and extraction hose away to the rear.
Concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes pre-
sent a serious hazard if damaged while you are working. Accordingly, check the area in which you are working beforehand (e.g. using a metal detector). Avoid con­tact between your body and earthed / grounded objects, such as pipes or radiators. External metal parts of the tool may become live, for example, when an electric cable is drilled into inadvertently.
5.3 General safety precautions
Use the right electric tool for the job. Do not use the
tool for purposes for which it was not intended. Use
the tool only as directed and when it is in faultless con­dition.
Avoid contact with rotating parts.
Use only the original accessories or ancillary equip-
ment listed in the operating instructions. Use of other insert tools or accessories may present a risk of per­sonal injury.
Take the influences of the surrounding area into account.
Do not expose the tool to rain or snow and do not use it in damp or wet conditions. Do not use the tool where there is a risk of fire or explosion.
Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Always hold the tool with both hands on the grips pro-
vided.
Operate the tool only as directed and only when it is in
faultless condition.
When not in use, the tool must be stored in a dry place,
locked up or out of reach of children.
Take care of your insert tools. You will be able to work
more efficiently and more safely if the insert tools are kept sharp and clean. Observe instructions on care and maintenance and on changing insert tools.
Check that moving parts function faultlessly and that
they are not sticking or damaged. All parts must be correctly fitted and fulfil all requirements in order to ensure that the tool operates faultlessly.
Check the electric tool for possible damage. Protec-
tive devices and any parts that may have suffered slight damage should be checked for correct operation and functionality before further use of the electric tool. Damaged safety devices or other damaged parts should be replaced or repaired properly by an authorized repair workshop unless otherwise indicated in the operating instructions.
Ensure that all parts of the tool are secured before
transport. Check that all locking mechanisms are tight­ened.
5.3.1 Mechanical hazards
The tool may jump back if released suddenly when
under tension (pressed down), presenting a risk of injury (especially bruising). Release the tool in a con­trolled manner.
Take care when the nosepiece is under tension and
the tool is turned upside down. Keep well away from the tool nosepiece. The nosepiece may jump back sud­denly, presenting a considerable risk of injury.
Follow the instructions concerning care and mainte-
nance.
Check that the insert tools used are compatible with
the chuck system and that they are secured in the chuck or gear housing correctly.

6. Before use
5.4 Requirements to be met by users
The tool is intended for professional use.
The tool may be operated, serviced and repaired only
by authorized, trained personnel. This personnel must be informed of any special hazards that may be encoun­tered.
Always concentrate on the job you are doing. Proceed
carefully and do not use the tool if your full attention is not on the job.
5.5 Personal protective equipment
The operator and other persons in the immediate vicinity
must always wear eye protection and ear protection while the tool is in use.
6.1 Assembling the tool and electric screwdriver
6.1.1 Fitting the grips
1. Open the two clamping levers on the main module.
2. Push the two grips into the lower tubular sections (the grip with the supply cord strain relief clasp on the right-hand side).
3. Adjust the height and angle of the grips. In order to ensure that the grips can be clamped securely in posi­tion, the grips should not be extended beyond a length of 118 cm.
4. Secure the grips by closing the clamping levers.
5. Pull the clamping levers out to the front and rotate them into a position where they will not get caught on things (preferably pointing toward the inside).
6.1.2 Preparing the electric screwdriver for use
1. Set the ST 1800 or ST 18 to forward rotation (-NOTE- Screws cannot be driven when the tool is set to the wrong direction of rotation).
2. Remove the depth gauge from the ST 1800 or ST 18.
3. Fit the bit holder and nut set driver to the ST 1800 or ST 18.
6.1.3 Mounting the electric screwdriver on the tool
1. Open the clamping lever on the clamping bar of the main module.
2. Swing the clamping bar into the open position.
3. Guide the front end of the ST 1800 or ST 18 into the barrel of the main module. The grip must point to the right so that the supply cord is directed toward the strain relief clasp.
4. Close the clamping bar.
5. Secure the ST 1800 or ST 18 by closing the clamp­ing lever.
6. Pull the clamping lever out to the front and rotate it to a position where it will not catch on things or get in the way.
7. Pass the supply cord through the strain relief clasp on the grip on the right (feed a loop through from below and then pass it over the clip).
