Please read this handbook carefully before using the tool
General Safety Rules
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions Failure to follow all warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference
The term “power tool” in the warnings refer to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated
(cordless) power tool.
1) Work area
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b)Do not operate pow er tools in ex plosive atmosph eres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and match ing outlet s will redu ce risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving p arts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the r isk
of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tools in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, al cohol or medicatio n. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew elry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collec tion facilitie s, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related ha2ards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not(use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrain ed
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the p ower tools operation . If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control;
g) Use the power t ool, accessories and too l bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power tool, t aking into accoun t the wor king conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charter that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, lie paperclips, coins, key s, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected form the
battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Special Safety Advice for Cordless Screwdriver
Only plug the Battery Charger in 230V for PT-0721F type and 120V for PT-0721A type mains. Recharge the
Battery only with the provided charger. Before starting any work on walls, floors or similar, make sure that all
power lines in the work area are switched off at the main switchboard. Inspect the proposed drill hole location
for any utility lines (e.g. water, gas, power) before drilling. Use a suitable device such as a metal or electricity
line detecting device. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician or your utility provider. Both tools and
work-pieces can heat up considerably during the drilling operation. Allow a sufficient period of cooling before
handling. Wear appropriate gloves.
Safety Advice for Rechargeable Battery
Use only the rechargeable battery from Prokits. Only plug the battery adapter in at 230V for PT-0721F type
and 120V for PT-0721A type mains
. Protect battery and battery charger from humidity. Do not operate the
battery charger outdoors. When not in use and before cleaning servicing, disconnect the battery charger from
the power supply. Take special care of the battery. Avoid dropp ing it on to any hard surface and do not su bject it
to pressure or any other form of mechanical stress. Keep the battery away from e xtreme heat and cold. Do not
open or attempt to repair the battery or the battery charger. If any parts are defective, have them rep a ired by a
qualified technician or send them to our service department for repair. Only charge the battery at an ambient
(surrounding air) temperature between 10ºC and 40ºC. A charged battery can be used to power the machine
under ambient temperature conditions between 0ºC and 50ºC. When no t in u se, store the b attery in a dry place
between 10ºC and 30ºC.
Important! Danger! Never short-circuit the battery or expose it to moisture. Do not store it together with
any metal parts which could short-circuit the contacts. The battery could overheat, start burning or explode.
If any person comes into contact with acid or similar internal fluids or substances contained in the
battery, wash off these subst ances immediately with plenty of water. If these substanc es ma ke c on tact
with the eyes, rinse with plenty of water and visit a doctor immediately.
Do not place the rechargeable battery into fire or water . It can explode. The Rechargeable Ba ttery should not be
discarded to domestic refuse, regardless of whether used or unused. You should return it to a local battery
collection point in accordance with Battery Regulations or return them to us suitably marked “Used Battery”.

Product Features
Initial operation
Charging the Battery
The rechargeable battery must be charged before the first use. Only recharge the battery once it is has been
fully discharged, i.e. the performance clearly decrea ses. Ot herw ise t he ba ttery may not achieve its full capacity
at the subsequent charge.
Important! Only use the provided battery charger for charging the battery. First insert the plug into
charging socket. Charging starts automatically.
Remove the plug from the socket after about 5 hours.
Inserting Tool Bits
The cordless screwdriver has a keyless chuck so you do not need a key to lo ck the too l bit in p lace. M ake sure
that the screw bit is not skew when it is inserted and the chuck tightened.
To remove the bits from tool, push the ring of the chuck, then pull out the bits.
Operating Trigger
Use the operating trigger to start the machine and keep holding it for continuous operation.
To switch the machine off, release the operating trigger
Forward and Reverse Switch
Important! The machine has to come to a complete stop before the forward and reverse s witch can be used;
otherwise the machine may be damaged.
Use the forward and reverse s witch to switch between clockwise (normal) and anticlockwise rotation or
vice-versa. With the forward and reverse switch in the central position the trigger switch is locked and cannot be
depressed. Put the forward and reverse switch in the central position before you put the machine down, to
avoid unintentional starting.

the machine may be damaged.
To set the drill to the lowest available torque setting, twist the torque control knob until the small arrow on the
drill-housing points to the “1” stamped on the torque control knob. In this position the tor que clutch w ill slip w ith
light drilling resistance. The higher the number the arrow points to on the torque control knob, the larger the
maximum torque that can be applied before the torque clutch will slip.
To set the machine to maximum available torque twist the torque control knob until the arrow points to the drill
symbol. In this position there is no slip in the torque clutch.
Select a lower torque for insertion/removal of screws to avoid damage to the work-piece (in particular wooden
work-pieces) or to the screw. For drilling select a higher torque setting. Do a test first on an item which is not
your final work-piece and adjust the desired torque accordingly before you start the actual work.
Maintenance and Clean
Attention! Always remove the battery before carrying out any work on the machine.
To clean, always use a dry or moist, but not wet, towel. Many cleaning agents contain chemical substances
which may cause damage to the plastic parts of the machine. Therefore do not use any strong or inflammable
cleaners such as petrol, paint thinner, turpentine or similar cleaning agents.
Always keep air ventilation holes free of dust deposits to prevent overheating.
