WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.

WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

IMPACT DRIVER / WRENCH 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. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

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 agaain 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:

  •  it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined
  •  it has pierced through the material to be machined
  •  the power tool is overloaded
  •  when changing tools
  •  when setting the device down

Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running. When working in walls ceiling, or fl oor, take care to avoid electric 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 off er to retrieve old batteries to protect our environment. Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit risk). Use only System GBS chargers for charging System GBS 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.Warning! To reduce the risk of fi re, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fl uid or allow a fl uid to fl ow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fl uids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

Use this mode to avoid overdriving the nut or bolt. After the impact wrench detects a resistance, it impacts for about 1 second and then stops automatically.

OPERATION

Note:
It is recommended after fastening to always check the torque with a torque wrench. The fastening torque is aff ected by a wide variety of factors including the following.

  •  State of battery charge – When the battery is discharged voltage will drop and the fastening torque will be reduced.
  •  Operation at speeds – Operating the tool at low speeds will cause a reduction in fastening torques.
  •  Fastening position – Holding the tool or the driving fastener in various angles will aff ect the torque.
  • Drive accessory/socket – Failure to use the correct size accessory or socket, or a non-impact rated accessory may cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
  • Use of accessories and extensions – Depending on the accessory or extension fi tment can reduce the fastening force of the impact wrench.
  • Bolt/Nut – Fastening torques may diff er according to the diameter of the nut or bolt, the class of nut/bolt and the length of nut/bolt.
  • Drive accessory/socket – Failure to use the correct size accessory or socket, or a non-impact rated accessory may cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
  • Use of accessories and extensions – Depending on the accessory or extension fi tment can reduce the fastening force of the impact wrench.
  • Bolt/Nut – Fastening torques may diff er according to the diameter of the nut or bolt, the class of nut/bolt and the length of nut/bolt.

Be particularly careful when impacting smaller fasteners because they require less impacting to reach optimum torque. Practice with various fasteners, noting the length of time required to reach the desired torque. Check the tightness with a hand-torque wrench. If the fasteners are too tight, reduce the impacting time. If they are not tight enough, increase the impacting time. Oil, dirt, rust or other matter on the threads or under the head of the fastener aff ects the degree of tightness. The torque required to loosen a fastener averages 75% to 80% of the tightening torque, depending on the condition of the contacting surfaces. On light gasket jobs, run each fastener down to a relatively light torque and use a hand torque wrench for fi nal tightening.

BATTERIES

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 used. 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 LI-ION BATTERY

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 machine automatically. To restart, switch the machine off and then on again. If the machine 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
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with local, national and international provisions and regulations.

  • The user can transport the batteries by road without further requirements.
  • Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third parties is subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation and transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding experts.
