with the Metabo combination hammer KHA 18 LTX
BL 24 Quick.

Only use the integrated dust extraction when
hammer drilling into concrete, stone or brickwork.
Do not use during chiselling work.

Not suitable for extracting dust when drilling into
metal, wood, plastic or similar materials. Not
suitable for extracting hazardous dust or vapours
(e.g. asbestos).

The machine is only suitable for extracting dry dust.
The user bears sole responsibility for any damage

caused by inappropriate use.
Generally accepted accident prevention

regulations and the enclosed safety information
must be observed.

2. General Safety Information

For your own protection and for the
protection of your electrical tool, pay
attention to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!

WARNING – Reading the operating instruc­tions will reduce the risk of injury.

Pass on your electrical tool only together with these
documents.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING – Read all safety warnings and
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.

2.1 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
atmospheres, 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.

2.2 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.

ENGLISH en

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 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.

2.3 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
balance at all times. This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) 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.

2.4 Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

5

ENGLISHen

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

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 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.

2.5 Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by

the manufacturer. A charger 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, like paper clips,
coins, keys, 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 from the battery may cause

irritation or burns.

2.6 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.

3. Special Safety Instructions

CAUTION! The device is not suitable for extracting
hazardous dust.

CAUTION! The machine is only suitable for
extracting dry dust and should not be used or stored
outside in wet conditions.

In case of a defective integrated dust extraction:
Remove the integrated dust extraction from the
rotary hammer.

Remove the battery pack from the machine before
making any adjustments, changing tools,
maintaining or cleaning.

Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.

Always wear protective goggles, gloves and sturdy
shoes when working with your integrated dust
extraction.

Do not touch the rotating tool!
The dust that collects in the integrated dust

extraction may contain fine quartz dust as well as
other hazardous substances. Fine quartz dust is
carcinogenic and should not enter the body. When
emptying the dust cassette and disposing of dust,
avoid disturbing and breathing the dust in.

Additional Warnings:

WARNING

drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated
lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
