General Power Tool Safety  
Warnings  
operating power tools may result in serious  
personal injury.  
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all  
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and  
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or  
serious injury.  
11. 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.  
12. 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.  
13. 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.  
14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and  
balance at all times. This enables better control  
of the power tool in unexpected situations.  
15. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves  
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,  
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving  
parts.  
16. If devices are provided for the connection of  
dust extraction and collection facilities,  
ensure these are connected and properly used.  
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related  
hazards.  
Save all warnings and  
instructions for future reference.  
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your  
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated  
(cordless) power tool.  
Work area safety  
1.  
2.  
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.  
3.  
Electrical safety  
4.  
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.  
5.  
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  
Power tool use and care  
17. 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.  
18. 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.  
19. Disconnect the plug from the power source  
and/or the battery pack 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.

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 cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or  
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords  
increase the risk of electric shock.  
8.  
9.  
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.

20. 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.  
21. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment  
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts  
and any other condition that may affect the  
unavoidable, use  
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an  
GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the  
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents  
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.  
22. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly  
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges  
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
23. 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.

The depth can be adjusted by turning the lock ring. Turn  
it in "B" direction for less depth and in "A" direction for  
more depth. One full turn of the lock ring equals 1.5 mm  
change in depth.  
26. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and  
grease.  
GEB017-2  
Adjust the lock ring so that the distance between the tip  
of the locator and the screw head is approximately 1 mm  
as shown in the figures. Drive a trial screw into your  
material or a piece of duplicate material. If the depth is  
still not suitable for the screw, continue adjusting until  
you obtain the proper depth setting.  
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product  
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence  
to screwdriver safety rules. If you use this power  
tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious  
personal injury.  
1.  
Hold power tool by insulated gripping  
surfaces, when performing an operation where  
the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its  
own cord. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may  
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"  
and could give the operator an electric shock.  
Always be sure you have a firm footing.  
Be sure no one is below when using the tool in  
high locations.

cause an injury.  
Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the  
screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be  
damaged.  
Hold the tool only by the handle when performing  
an operation. Do not touch the metal part.
