Additional Safety and Working Instructions
When grinding metal, flying sparks are produced. Take care that no
persons are endangered. Because of the danger of fire, no combustible
materials should be located in the vicinity (spark flight zone). Do not use
dust extraction.
Avoid flying sparks and sanding dust hit your body.
Never reach into the danger area of the machine when it is running.
Immediately switch off the machine in case of considerable vibrations or
if other malfunctions occur. Check the machine in order to find out the
cause.
Under extreme conditions (e.g. smooth-grinding metals with the arbour
and vulcanized fibre grinding disk), significant contamination can build
up on the inside of the angle grinder (metal residue/deposits). For safety
reasons, in such conditions a ground fault interrupter must be
connected in series. If the ground fault interrupter trips the machine
must be sent for service.
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.
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 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 fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or
charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

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

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
