Additional Safety Instructions - Hilti SR 30-A36 Mode D'emploi

▶ Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing work in which the accessory
tool might come into contact with concealed wiring. If the accessory tool comes into contact with a live
wire, metal parts of the power tool can also become live, resulting in an electric shock.

blade binding or kicking back.
▶ Comply with the manufacturer's instructions for handling and storing saw blades.
▶ The product must be pressed against the workpiece until the contact shoe makes firm contact. This
ensures optimum and safe progress as you work.

Additional safety instructions

▶ Use the product only when it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the power tool in any way.
▶ Do not use dull or damaged blades. These cause increased friction and present a high risk of the saw
blade binding or kicking back.
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes.
External metal parts of the power tool can become live, presenting a risk of electric shock, if you
accidentally damage an electric cable.
▶ Secure the workpiece in a sturdy holder. Never hold the workpiece with your hand or across your leg.
▶ Switch the product on only after bringing it to the working position.
▶ When working with the power tool, always guide it away from your body.
▶ Apply only moderate pressure and cut at an appropriate speed, especially when cutting large-diameter
pipes. This will help to prevent the power tool overheating.
▶ Before cutting through pipes, make sure that they are empty of medium. Drain the pipes if necessary.
▶ When cutting through pipes, hold the power tool above the level of the pipe you are cutting through.
➥ The power tool is not protected against ingress of moisture. Liquid running out of a pipe can cause a
short circuit in the power tool.
▶ Never cut into unknown materials and make sure the path of the saw is free of obstructions above and
below the workpiece.
➥ The power tool can kick back if the saw blade comes into contact with an obstructing object.
▶ Wear protective gloves also when changing the accessory tool. Touching the accessory tool presents a
risk of injury (cuts or burns).
▶ Always remove the battery when the power tool is not in use, before maintenance, before changing
accessory tools and before transport.
▶ Engage the transport lock before storing or transporting the power tool.
▶ Comply with the manufacturer's instructions for handling and storing saw blades.
▶ The user and any other persons in the vicinity must wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat, ear
protection, protective gloves and breathing protection while the power tool is in use.
▶ Always use a saw blade of appropriate length. The saw blade must project past the workpiece throughout
the entire stroke.
▶ Take breaks between working and do relaxation and finger exercises to improve the blood circulation in
your fingers.
▶ Do not look directly into the light source (LEDs) of the power tool and do not aim the beam at other
persons' faces. Risk of dazzling or eye damage.
▶ Flying fragments can injure the body and eyes. Wear your personal protective equipment and always
wear protective glasses and protective gloves.
▶ If work involves break-through, always secure the area on the side opposite where the work is carried
out.

▶ Observe the special regulations and instructions applicable to the transport, storage and use of Li-ion
batteries.
