approved protection classification in compliance
with locally applicable dust protection regula-
tions.
i)
The user and any other persons in the vicinity
must wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat,
ear protection, protective gloves and breathing
en
protection while the tool is in use.
2.4.2 Careful use of the power tool
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) Large and heavy insert tools must only be op-
erated in first gear. There is otherwise a risk that
the tool will be damaged when it is switched off or,
under unfavorable conditions, the chuck might be
detached.
2.4.3 Careful use of the cordless tool
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 and
keep them away from fire. This presents a risk of
explosion.
c) Do not disassemble, squash or incinerate batter-
ies and do not subject them to temperatures over
80°C. This presents a risk of fire, explosion or injury
through contact with caustic substances.
3 Description
3.1 Use of the product as directed
The SF 10W-A22 and SF 8M-A22 are hand-held, cordless drill / drivers designed for driving and releasing screws and
drilling in steel, wood and plastic.
Do not use the battery as a power source for other unspecified appliances.
To avoid the risk of injury, use only genuine Hilti accessories and insert tools.
The power tool is designed for professional use and may be operated, serviced and maintained only by trained,
authorized personnel. This personnel must be informed of any special hazards that may be encountered. The power
tool and its ancillary equipment may present hazards when used incorrectly by untrained personnel or when used not
as directed.

d) Avoid ingress of moisture. Ingress of moisture may
cause a short circuit, resulting in burning injuries or
fire.
e) Use only batteries of the type approved for use
with the applicable power tool. Use of unapproved
batteries or use of the batteries in areas of application
for which they are not approved presents a risk of
fire and explosion.
f)
Observe the special guidelines applicable to the
transport, storage and use of Li-ion batteries.
g) Avoid short circuiting the battery terminals. Be-
fore inserting the battery in the tool, make sure
that the battery terminals and the terminals in the
tool are free from foreign objects. Short circuiting
the battery terminals presents a risk of fire, explosion
and chemical burns.
h) Do not charge or continue to use damaged bat-
teries (e.g. batteries with cracks, broken parts,
bent or pushed-in and/or pulled-out contacts).
i)
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasten-
ers contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
j)
If the battery is too hot to touch it may be defective.
Place the tool in a location where it can be kept
under observation, well away from flammable ma-
terials, and allow it to cool down. Contact Hilti
Service after the battery has cooled down.
2.4.4 Electrical safety
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.
