The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging 
by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is 
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective 
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.



Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the 
machine has been automatically switched off. 

The bat-

tery can be damaged.

Observe the notes for disposal.

Removing the battery

The battery 

5

 is equipped with two locking levels that should 

prevent the battery from falling out when pushing the battery 
unlocking button 

6

 unintentionally. As long as the battery is 

inserted in the power tool, it is held in position by means of a 
spring.

To remove the battery 

5

, press the unlocking button 

6

 and 

pull out the battery toward the front. 

Do not exert any force.

Changing the Tool (see figure A – C)



Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport 
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool. 

There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating 
the On/Off switch.



Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. 

The motor’s 

fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive ac-
cumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical haz-
ards.

GDR 14,4 V-LI / GDR 18 V-LI / GDX 14,4 V-LI / GDX 18 V-LI:
Inserting

Pull the locking sleeve 

2

 forward, push the insert tool to the 

stop into the tool holder 

1

 and release the locking sleeve 

2

 to 

lock the insert tool.

Use only screwdriver bits with ball catch 

11

 (DIN 3126-E6.3). 

Other screwdriver bits 

13

 can be used with a universal bit 

holder with ball catch 

12

.

Removing

Pull the locking sleeve 

2

 forward and remove the insert tool.

GDS 14,4 V-LI / GDS 18 V-LI / GDX 14,4 V-LI / GDX 18 V-LI:



When working with an application tool, pay attention 
that the application tool is connected securely on the 
tool holder. 

When the application tool is not securely con-

nected with the tool holder, it can come off during applica-
tion.

Slide the application tool 

14

 onto the square drive of the tool 

holder 

1

.

With this system, there will be a slight amount of play around 
the application tool 

14

 after connecting securely to the tool 

holder 

1

; this has no influence on the function/safety.

Operation

Method of Operation

The tool holder 

1

 with the tool is driven by an electric motor 

via a gear and impact mechanism.

The working procedure is divided into two phases:

Screwing in

 and 

tightening

 (impact mechanism in action).

The impact mechanism is activated as soon as the screwed 
connection runs tight and thus load is put on the motor. In this 
instance, the impact mechanism converts the power of the 
motor to steady rotary impacts. When loosening screws or 
nuts, the process is reversed.

Starting Operation

Inserting the battery

Set the rotational direction switch 

7

 to the centre position to 

protect the power tool against accidental starting.

Insert the charged battery 

5

 from the front into the base of the 

power tool until the battery is securely locked.

Reversing the rotational direction (see figure D)

The rotational direction switch 

7

 is used to reverse the rota-

tional direction of the machine. However, this is not possible 
with the On/Off switch 

8

 actuated.

Right Rotation:

 For driving in screws and tightening nuts, 

press the rotational direction switch 

7

 through to the left 

stop.

Left Rotation:

 For loosening and unscrewing screws and 

nuts, press the rotational direction switch 

7

 through to the 

right stop.

Switching On and Off

To 

start

 the machine, press the On/Off switch 

8

 and keep it 

pressed.

The power light 

9

 lights up when the On/Off switch 

8

 is slightly 

or completely pressed, and allows the work area to be illumi-
nated when lighting conditions are insufficient.

To 

switch off

 the machine, release the On/Off switch 

8

.

To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.

Adjusting the Speed

The speed of the switched-on power tool can be variably ad-
justed, depending on how far the On/Off switch 

8

 is pressed.

Light pressure on the On/Off switch 

8

 results in a low rotation-

al speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase 
in speed.

Working Advice



Apply the power tool to the screw/nut only when it is 
switched off. 

Rotating tool inserts can slip off.

The torque depends on the impact duration. The maximum 
achieved torque results from the sum of all individual torques 
achieved through impact. The maximum torque is achieved
