6.3 Fitting the battery
CAUTION
Before fitting the battery, check that the power tool is
switched off and the switch-on interlock is activated
(not pressed). Use only the Hilti batteries approved

7 Operation
NOTE
If the blade has jammed, the tool will not restart by itself
when the pressure applied to it is removed. The switch-on
interlock and the on/off button must be pressed again.
CAUTION
Wear protective gloves. The cutting edges of the saw
blade teeth are sharp. The cutting edges present a risk
of injury.
CAUTION
Wear protective glasses and a dust mask. The sawing
operation swirls up dust and chips into the air. The dust
and chips may be harmful to the eyes and respiratory
system.
CAUTION
Wear ear protectors. The power tool and the sawing
operation generate noise. Exposure to noise can cause
loss of hearing.

for transport or storage, make sure that the contacts of
the battery pack are not short-circuited. Remove loose
metal parts such as screws, nails, clamps, loose screw
bits, wires or metal swarf from the case, toolbox or
transport container, or prevent these parts from coming
into contact with the battery packs.
Observe national and international transport regulations
when shipping battery packs (transportation by road, rail,
