5. Safety instructions

5.1 General power tool safety warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the 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 refers to your mains‐operated (corded) power tool or battery‐operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1.1 Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, 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 oper-

ating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

5.1.2 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 matching outlets will

reduce 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 con-

ditions. 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 parts. Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk 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 tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces

the risk of electric shock.

5.1.3 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, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the off‐position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on

the switch or energising 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 bal-

ance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery

or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.1.4 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

and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preven-

tive 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 untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s 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 tool, accessories and tool bits etc.

in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations

different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5.1.5 Service

a) 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.

5.2 Additional safety instructions

5.2.1 Personal protective equipment

The user and any other persons in the vicinity must wear ANSI Z87.1-approved eye protection, a hard hat, ear protection, protective gloves and breathing protection while the machine is in use.

5.2.2 Personal safety

a) Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause

hearing loss.

b) Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.

Loss of control can cause personal injury.

c) Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire

may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.

d) Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and

grease.

e) Store power tools, when not in use, in a secure

place. When not in use, power tools must be stored in a dry, high place or locked away out of reach of children.

f) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

g) Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by

relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers during breaks between working.

h) Always lead the supply cord and extension cord

away from the power tool to the rear while working. This helps to avoid tripping over the cord

while working.

i) Children must be instructed not to play with the

appliance.

j) The appliance is not intended for use by chil-

dren, by debilitated persons or those who have received no instruction or training.

k) WARNING: Some dust created by grinding, sand-

ing, cutting and drilling contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, infertility or other reproductive harm; or serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Some ex-

amples of these chemicals are: lead from leadbased paints, crystalline silica from bricks, concrete and other masonry products and natural stone, arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce exposure to these chemi-

cals, the operator and bystanders should work in a well-ventilated area, work with approved safety equipment, such as respiratory protection appropriate for the type of dust generated, and designed to filter out microscopic particles and direct dust away from the face and body. Avoid prolonged contact with dust. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes,

or to remain on your skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

5.2.3 Electrical safety

a) Before beginning work, check the working area

(e.g. using a metal detector) to ensure that no concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes are present. External metal parts of the power tool

may become live, for example, when an electric cable is damaged accidentally. This presents a serious risk of electric shock.

b) Concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes

present a serious hazard if damaged while you are working. Accordingly, check the area in

which you are working beforehand (e.g. using a metal detector). External metal parts of the power

tool or machine may become live, for example, when an electric cable is damaged accidentally.

c) Check the power tool’s supply cord at regular

intervals and have it replaced by a qualified specialist if found to be damaged. If the power tool’s supply cord is damaged it must be replaced with a specially-prepared supply cord available from Hilti Customer Service. Check extension cords at regular intervals and replace them if found to be damaged. Do not touch the supply cord or extension cord if it is damaged while working. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power outlet. Damaged supply cords or extension cords

present a risk of electric shock.

d) Dirty or dusty power tools which have been

used frequently for work on conductive materials should be checked at regular intervals at a Hilti Service Center. Under unfavorable circum-

stances, dampness or dust adhering to the surface of the power tool, especially dust from conductive materials, may present a risk of electric shock.

e) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

f) When working outdoors with an electric tool

check to ensure that the tool is connected to the electric supply by way of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) with a rating of max. 30 mA (tripping current). Use of a ground fault circuit

interrupter reduces the risk of electric shock.

g) Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)

with a maximum tripping current of 30 mA is recommended.

h) Switch the power tool off and unplug the supply

cord in the event of a power failure or interruption in the electric supply. This will prevent accidental

restarting when the electric power returns.

5.2.4 Work area

a) Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated.

Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may result in damage to the health.

b) Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could

cause injury should be removed from the working

10. Disposal

Most of the materials from which Hilti power tools or appliances are manufactured can be recycled. The materials must be correctly separated before they can be recycled. In many countries, Hilti has already made arrangements for taking back your old power tools or appliances for recycling. Please ask your Hilti customer service department or Hilti representative for further information.

11. Manufacturer’s warranty - tools

Hilti warrants that the tool supplied is free of defects in material and workmanship. This warranty is valid so long as the tool is operated and handled correctly, cleaned and serviced properly and in accordance with

the Hilti Operating Instructions, and the technical system is maintained. This means that only original Hilti consumables, components and spare parts may be used in the tool.

This warranty provides the free-of-charge repair or replacement of defective parts only over the entire lifespan of the tool. Parts requiring repair or replacement as a result of normal wear and tear are not covered by this warranty.

Additional claims are excluded, unless stringent national rules prohibit such exclusion. In particular, Hilti is not obligated for direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses in connection with, or by reason of, the use of, or inability to use the tool for any purpose. Implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose are specifically excluded.

For repair or replacement, send the tool or related parts immediately upon discovery of the defect to the address of the local Hilti marketing organization provided.

This constitutes Hilti’s entire obligation with regard to warranty and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous comments and oral or written agreements concerning warranties.
