# Starting Operation

- Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a residual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current of 30 mA or less.

- Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the power source must match the voltage specified on the rating plate of the power tool.

The rotational direction switch (7) is used to change the rotational direction of the power tool. However, this is not possible while the on/off switch (6) is being pressed.

Right rotation: For drilling or stirring, push the rotational direction switch (7) all the way to the left.

Left rotation: For loosening or stirring, push the rotational direction switch (7) all the way to the right.

##

To start the power tool, press and hold the on/off switch (6).

Press the lock-on button (5) to lock the on/off switch (6) in this position.

To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (6); or, if the switch is locked with the lock-on button (5), briefly press the on/off switch (6) and then release it.

##

You can adjust the speed of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (6) to varying extents.

A light pressure on the on/off switch (6) results in a low rotational speed. Increased pressure on the switch causes an increase in speed.
