▶ Before use, check that the accessory tool has been installed correctly and is secure, then run the power
tool under no load for one minute in safe conditions. Switch off the power tool immediately if significant
vibration occurs or some other fault is perceived. Under these circumstances, check the entire system
to ascertain the cause.
▶ Do not use the power tool if it starts sharply or jerkily. The electronics might be defective. Have the
power tool repaired by Hilti Service.
▶ Do not, under any circumstances, use the power tool without the guard correctly installed.
▶ Always adjust the guard to the optimum position to protect yourself from sparks and flying fragments of
material.
▶ Make sure that the water supply does not exceed the maximum permissible pressure of 6 bar.
▶ When it is hot, do not set down the power tool near flammable liquids or surfaces.
Slits cut in load-bearing walls of buildings or other structures may influence the statics of the structure,
especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut through.
▶ Consult the responsible structural engineer, architect or person in charge of the building project before
beginning the work.
▶ Guide the power tool carefully and make straight cuts in order to keep the accessory tool from jamming.
Do not attempt to make curved cuts.
▶ Guide the power tool smoothly, without applying lateral pressure to the accessory tool. Always bring
the power tool into contact with the workpiece at right angles. Do not attempt to change the line of cut
by applying lateral pressure or by bending the accessory tool while cutting is in progress. This could
damage the accessory tool and cause it to break.
▶ Never use the power tool without the spray guard.
2.4 Battery use and care
▶ Comply with the following safety instructions for the safe handling and use of Li-ion batteries.
Failure to comply can lead to skin irritation, severe corrosive injury, chemical burns, fire and/or explosion.
▶ Use only batteries that are in perfect working order.
▶ Treat batteries with care in order to avoid damage and prevent leakage of fluids that are extremely
harmful to health!
▶ Do not under any circumstances modify or tamper with batteries!
▶ Do not disassemble, crush or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over 80 °C
(176 °F).
▶ Never use or charge a battery that has suffered an impact or been damaged in any other way. Check
your batteries regularly for signs of damage.
▶ Never use recycled or repaired batteries.
▶ Never use the battery or a battery-operated power tool as a striking tool.
▶ Never expose batteries to the direct rays of the sun, elevated temperature, sparking, or open flame. This
can lead to explosions.
▶ Do not touch the battery poles with your fingers, tools, jewelry, or other electrically conductive objects.
This can damage the battery and also cause material damage and personal injury.
▶ Keep batteries away from rain, moisture and liquids. Penetrating moisture can cause short circuits,
electric shock, burns, fire and explosions.
▶ Use only chargers and power tools approved for the specific battery type. Read and follow the relevant
operating instructions.
▶ Do not use or store the battery in explosive environments.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch, it may be defective. Put the battery in a place where it is clearly visible
and where there is no risk of fire, at an adequate distance from flammable materials. Allow the battery to
cool down. If it is still too hot to touch after an hour, the battery is faulty. Consult Hilti Service or read the
document entitled "Instructions on safety and use for Hilti Li-ion batteries".
Observe the special guidelines applicable to the transport, storage and use of lithium-ion batteries.
