Operating manual – cordless drill driver PSCS 11-20V
Safety
Read this manual carefully before starting or using the
device. Always store the manual in the immediate vicinity
of the device or its site of use!
Warning
Observe all the safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and technical data provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow the instructions below may result in
electric shock, fire and/ or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term power tool used in the safety warnings refers to both
mains-operated and battery-powered electric tools (with/
without power cable).
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Work area
safety
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device(RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
• Hold 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 power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Personal
safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Electrical
safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. The use of a dust
extraction system may reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Power tool
use and care
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Battery tool
use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and / or
the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools and accessories carefully. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and gripping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery. Avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Damaged or
modified batteries can behave unexpectedly and lead to
fires, explosions or injuries.
• Do not expose a battery to fire or excessively high
temperatures. Exposure to fire or temperatures above
130°C (265°F) may cause an explosion.
• Follow all the instructions for charging and never
charge the battery or the cordless tool outside the
temperature range specified in the operating
instructions. Incorrect charging or charging outside of the
permissible temperature range can destroy the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
