WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow
WKHZDUQLQJVDQGLQVWUXFWLRQVPD\UHVXOWLQHOHFWULFVKRFN¿UHDQG
or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
SCREWDRIVER SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the fastener may contact
hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses when
working with the machine. The use of protective clothing is
recommended, such as dust mask, protective gloves, sturdy non-
slip footwear, helmet and ear defenders.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to health.
Do not inhale the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to health (e.g.,
asbestos).
Switch the device off immediately if the insertion tool stalls! Do not
switch the device on again while the insertion tool is stalled, as
doing so could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive force.
Determine why the insertion tool stalled and rectify this, paying
heed to the safety instructions.
The possible causes may be:
Ɣ it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined
Ɣ it has pierced through the material to be machined
Ɣ the power tool is overloaded
Do not reach into the machine while it is running.
The insertion tool may become hot during use.
Ɣ when changing tools
Ɣ when setting the device down
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.

cables and gas or waterpipes.
Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped
workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or
by burning them. AEG Distributors offer to retrieve old batteries to
protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short
circuit risk).
Use only System PCLS chargers for charging System PCLS battery
packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry
rooms. Keep dry at all times.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme load
or extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery acid wash
it off immediately with soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse
thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical
attention.
Do not insert the bit on tool when the tool is running, and switch is
lock on status, the bit will be run and may hurt the user.

BATTERIES
New battery packs reach full loading capacity after 4 - 5 chargings
and dischargings. Battery packs which have not been used for
some time should be recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance
of the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine
(risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged,
after use.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack
from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C
and away from moisture.
Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition.
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being
overloaded and helps to ensure long life. Under extreme stress the
battery electronics switch off the product automatically. To restart,
switch the product off and then on again. If the product does not
start up again, the battery pack may have discharged completely. In
this case it must be recharged in the battery charger.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
