b) Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
c) Use auxiliary handles, if supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
d) Breathing protection must be worn if the power tool is used
en
without a dust removal system for work that creates dust.
e) Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by relaxing
your hands and exercising your fingers during breaks
between working.
f) Avoid touching rotating parts.
on only after bringing it into position at the workpiece.
Touching rotating parts, especially rotating insert tools, may
lead to injury.
g) Activate the safety lock (forward / reverse switch in the
middle position) before storing or transporting the power
tool.
h) Children must be instructed not to play with the power tool.
i) The power tool is not intended for use by children, by debil-
itated persons or those who have received no instruction
or training.
j) Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood
species, minerals and metal may be harmful. Contact with
or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or
respiratory diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain
kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic such as oak and
beech dust especially in conjunction with additives for wood
conditioning (chromate, wood preservative). Material contain-
ing asbestos must only be treated by specialists. Where the
use of a dust extraction device is possible it shall be used.
To achieve a high level of dust collection, use a suitable
vacuum cleaner of the type recommended by Hilti for wood
dust and/or mineral dust together with this tool. Ensure
that the workplace is well ventilated. The use of a dust
mask of filter class P2 is recommended. Follow national
requirements for the materials you want to work with.
5.2.2 Power tool use and care
a) Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to secure the
workpiece. The workpiece is thus held more securely than by
hand and both hands remain free to operate the power tool.
b) Check that the insert tools used are compatible with the
chuck system and that they are secured in the chuck
correctly.
c) Ensure fastener and attachment will withstand the level of
torque generated by the tool. Excessive torque may over-
stress, strip or damage the fastener/attachment and possibly
lead to personal injury.
5.2.3 Cordless tool use and care
a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
b) Do not expose batteries to high temperatures or fire. This
presents a risk of explosion.
c) Do not disassemble, squash or incinerate batteries and do
not subject them to temperatures over 80°C. A risk of fire,
explosion or injury through contact with caustic substances
may otherwise result.
d) Avoid ingress of dampness.Dampness may cause a short
circuit resulting in a risk of burning injury or fire.
e) Do not use batteries other than those approved for use
with the applicable power tool or appliance. Use of other
batteries or use of the battery for purposes for which it is not
intended presents a risk of fire and explosion.
f) Observe the special instructions applicable to the trans-
port, storage and use of Li-ion batteries.
g) Remove the battery before storing or transporting the
power tool.
h) Avoid short-circuiting the battery. Check that the terminals
on the battery and in the power tool are free from foreign
objects before inserting the battery in the power tool. Short
circuiting the battery terminals presents a risk of fire, explosion
and chemical burns.
i) Do not charge or continue to use damaged batteries (e.g.
batteries with cracks, broken parts, bent or pushed-in
and/or pulled-out contacts).
