2. SpeciedUse
The machine is suitable for drilling, without impact, in
metal, wood, plastic and similar materials and for
impact drilling in concrete, stone and similar
materials. It is also suitable for thread tapping and
for screwdriving (not SB 850-2).
The user bears sole responsibility for any damage
caused by improper use.
Generally accepted accident prevention regulations
and the enclosed safety information must be
observed.
3. General Safety Instructions
For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool, pay atten-
tion to all parts of the text that are marked
with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating
instructions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow all safety
warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, re and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety instructions and information for
future reference.
Pass on your power tool only together with these
documents.
4. Special Safety Instructions
Wear ear protectors when impact drilling.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Usetheadditionalhandlesuppliedwiththetool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the 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
electrical tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or in case of a power cut.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
Smaller workpieces must be secured such that they
are not carried along with the drill bit when drilling
(e.g. by clamping in a vice or on a work bench with
screw clamps).
Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove
chips and similar material only with the machine at
standstill.
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety
clutch responds, switch off the machine immediately!
If the tool jams or catches, the power supply to the
motor is restricted. Due to the strong force which can
arise, always hold the machine with both hands
using the handles provided, stand securely and
concentrate.
The Metabo S-automatic safety clutch must not be
used for torque control.
Caution with hard screwdriving (driving of screws
with either a metric or an imperial thread into steel)!
The head of the screw may rip off or high restoring
torques may be incurred at the handle.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain substances known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these substances are: lead (from lead-based
paints), crystalline silica (from bricks cement, etc.),
additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservative), some types of wood (like oak and
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce exposure to these substances: work in a
well ventilated area and wear protective equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to
lter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use only suitable accessories. In this way, fewer
particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled
manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or
on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air puriers.
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep
it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
