1. Safety precautions
1.1 Basic safety instructions
In addition to the safety precautions listed in the individual sections of these operating instructions, the
following points must be strictly observed at all times.
1.2 Only use Hilti cartridges or cartridges of equivalent quality
The use of cartridges of inferior quality in Hilti tools may
lead to build-up of unburned powder, which may explode and cause severe injuries to operators and bystanders. At a minimum, cartridges must either:
a) Be confirmed by their supplier to have been suc-
cessfully tested in accordance with EU standard EN
16264
NOTE:
● All Hilti cartridges for powder-actuated tools have
been tested successfully in accordance with EN 16264.
● The tests defined in the EN 16264 standard are system
tests carried out by the certification authority using
specific combinations of cartridges and tools.
The tool designation, the name of the certification authority and the system test number are printed on the
cartridge packaging.
or
b) Carry the CE conformity mark (mandatory in the EU
as of July 2013).

1.3 Use as intended
The tool is designed for professional use in fastening
applications in construction where nails, threaded studs
and composite fasteners are driven into concrete, steel
and sand-lime block masonry.
1.4 Improper use
● Manipulation or modification of the tool is not per-
missible.
● Do not operate the tool in an explosive or flammable
atmosphere, unless the tool is specially approved for
such use.
● To avoid the risk of injury, use only original Hilti fas-
teners, cartridges, accessories and spare parts or those
of equivalent quality.
● Observe the information printed in the operating
instructions concerning operation, care and maintenance.
