Safety precautions (Please read and keep these instructions)
Caution: The following fundamental safe-
ty precautions must always be observed
when using electric tools/machines as protection against and electric shock, the risk
of injury and fire hazards. Please read and
take note of these precautions before you
use the tool/machine. Keep these safety precautions in a safe place!
1
■
Keep your place of work clean and tidy.
Disorder where you are working creates a potential risk of accidents.
2
■
Make allowance for influence from the surroundings. Don’t expose your electric tools/machines to rain. Don’t use electric tools/machines in damp or wet surroundings. Make
sure the work area is well lit. Don’t use electric tools/ machines near inflammable liquids
or gases.
3
■
Always protect yourself against electric
shock. Never touch grounding (earthing) parts
e.g. pipes, radiators, cookers, ovens, refrigerators.
4
■
Keep children away. Don’t let other persons touch the electric tool/machine or supply cord. Keep them away from your work
area.
5
■
Keep your electric tool/machine in a safe
place. Electric tools/machines not in use should
be kept in a dry locked-up place out of the
reach of children.
6
■
Don’t overload your electric tools/machines.
You will do your work better and safer in the
specified performance/rating range.
7
■
Always use the right electric tool/machine
for the job. Don’t use underpowered tools/machines or attachments for heavier duty jobs.
Don’t use electric tools/ machines for work
and purposes for which they are not intend-
ed, e.g. don’t use a hand-held circular saw to
cut down trees or cut up branches.
8
■
Wear suitable clothing. Don’t wear loose
clothing or jewellery – they could be caught
up in moving parts. When working outside,
the use of rubber gloves and non-slip shoes
is recommended. Wear a helmet or cap if you
have long hair.
9
■
Always wear protective goggles. If work
causes dust, wear a mask as well.
10
■
Don’t use the supply cord for any other
purpose. Don’t carry the electric tool/ machine
by the supply cord and don’t pull the plug out
of the socket/receptacle by pulling the supply cord. Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
11
■
Secure the workpiece. Use a clamping device or vice to hold the workpiece. It is secured more reliably in this way than in your
hand and you can then hold and operate your
electric tool/machine with both hands.
12
■
Don’t bend over too far when working.
Avoid an unusual stance. Make sure that you
are standing firmly and keep your balance at
all times.
13
■
Take good care of your electric tools/machines. Keep the drill bits, insert tools etc.
sharp and clean so that you can do your work
better, safer and more reliably. Observe the
cleaning and maintenance regulations and
the instructions for changing drill bits, insert
tools etc. Check the supply cord regularly and
have it renewed by a recognized specialist if
it is damaged. Check the extension supply
cord regularly and, if it is damaged, replace
it. Keep grips and side handles dry and free
from oil or grease.
14
■
Always pull out the plug from the mains if
the electric tool/machine is not in use, prior
to cleaning and maintenance work and when
changing a drill bit, saw blade or insert tools
of any kind.
15
■
Never leave a key in place. Always check
before switching on that the key or adjusting
tools have been removed.
16
■
Avoid any unintentional start-up. Never
carry a plugged-in electric tool/machine with
your finger on the switch. Always make sure
that the switch is off when plugging the electric tool/machine into the main electric supply.
17
■
If an extension supply cord is used outside, only use one which has been approved
for the purpose and is correspondingly marked.
18
■
Be attentive at all times. Keep your eye on
your work. Remain in a sensible frame of mind
and don’t use the electric tool/machine if you
cannot concentrate completely.
19
■
Check your electric tool/machine for damage. You must check the safety devices or
damaged parts carefully for perfect functioning in keeping with the intended purpose before using the electric tool/machine further.
Check whether the moving parts function
properly, whether they aren’t sticking, whether
any parts are broken, whether all other parts
work properly and are fitted correctly, and
make sure that all other conditions which can
influence operation and running of the electric tool/machine are as they should be. Damaged guards and protective devices and parts
must be repaired properly by an authorized
service workshop or replaced provided that
nothing else is stated in the operating instructions. Damaged switches must also be
replaced in the recognized service workshop.
Never use electric tools/machines which cannot be switched on and off by the switch.
20
■
Caution ! For your own safety’s sake, on-
ly use accessories and attachments which are
specified in the operating instructions or in
the respective catalogue. The use of accessories or insert tools or attachments other
than those specified in the operating instructions can result in personal injury to you.
21
■
Only have repairs carried out by recognized
electrical specialists. This electric tool/machine complies with respective safety regulations. Repairs may only be carried out by
an electrical specialist otherwise an accident
hazard for the operator can exist.
22
■
Connect dust extraction equipment. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities ensure these
are connected and properly used.
23
■
Locking the chuck: Check that insert tools
(chisels, drill bits) are properly secured in the
chuck.
24
■
When working on electrically conductive
materials, conductive dust may collect inside
an electric tool, causing leakage of electric
voltage and a possible risk of electric shock.
Work of this kind, for example, includes grinding cast iron, chiselling or other operations
using impact tools on solid metal, overhead
drilling in metal and, under certain conditions,
drilling through steel reinforcement in concrete ceilings. Electric tools or machines used
for applications of this kind must be inspected at regular, short intervals by a recognised
specialist or at a Hilti service workshop in order to ensure that no hazardous deposits of
conductive dust are present inside the tool
and to confirm the integrity of the tool’s electrical insulation.
Please keep these safety precautions in a
safe place.

Safety
● The list of safety precautions must be observed!
● Do not use this product in any way other than as described in the operating
instructions.
● Make sure the SBP 12 battery is securely attached to the screwgun before beginning work.
● Do not continue operating the screwgun until the SBP 12 battery is fully discharged.
This may reduce the life of the battery cells.
● High temperatures increase the rate of battery self-discharge. Direct exposure to
the sun or other sources of heat should be avoided.
● The chuck begins to rotate when the electronic on/off switch ➀ is pressed. To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the switch is not pressed during transport and/or
storage. The on/off switch ➀ can be deactivated by setting the reversing switch ➁
to the central position.
● Use only Hilti original parts and accessories ( SBC12H, SBC 12M and SBC12C
chargers, SBP12 battery). This ensures optimum safety as these units have been
designed to operate as a system of coordinated components.
● High drilling and screwdriving performance, high battery capacity and long life can
be achieved only when the screwgun is serviced correctly and insert tools are kept
clean and in good condition.

Initial operation
● Charge the SBP12 battery before beginning work. For best results, a new battery
should be left in the charger for approx. 24 hours for the initial charge. This allows
the battery cells to become balanced.
● For optimum performance, it is recommended that the screwgun and battery are
at room temperature before work begins. Keep the screwgun and battery warm
when working at low temperatures.
Environmental protection / recycling
The SBP 12 battery contains 10 nickel-cadmium cells. You share reponsibility for protecting the environment by ensuring that used batteries are returned for recycling.
Important: Exhausted SBP12 nickel-cadmium batteries should not
be disposed of with household waste and should not be thrown
into a fire or into water.
Return the exhausted batteries to your local Hilti centre so that they can
be disposed of correctly.
