Work Area Safety; Before Use - Hilti TE DRS-BK Mode D'emploi

the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing power tools. Such prevent-
ive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
en
power tool accidentally.
d) Always hold the machine securely with both
hands on the grips provided. Keep the grips
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
e) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
f) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

4.4 Work area safety

Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Ex-
posure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may
result in damage to the health.
4.5 Dusts
This appliance collects a significant percentage of the
dust produced, but not all of it.

5. Before use

CAUTION
Ensure that the function selector switch is set to
"Chiseling"during work with combi-hammers for
chiseling applications and to "Hammer drilling"
for work with percussion core bits.

a) WARNING: Some types of dust created by work-
ing on materials contain chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduct-
ive harm, or serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury. Some examples of these chem-
icals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline
silica from bricks, concrete and other masonry
products and natural stone, arsenic and chro-
mium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk
from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce ex-
posure to these chemicals, the operator and
bystanders should work in a well-ventilated
area using approved safety equipment such as
respiratory protection appropriate for the type
of dust generated, and designed to filter out
microscopic particles. Direct dust away from
face and body. Avoid prolonged contact with
dust. Wear protective clothing and wash ex-
posed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust
to get into your mouth, nose, eyes, or to remain
on your skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
b) Before beginning the work, check to determine
the hazard classification of the dust produced.
Use an industrial vacuum cleaner of the appro-
priate officially approved safety class and in
compliance with your local dust hazard control
regulations.
c) If the power tool is operated without dust ex-
traction, you must wear at least a lightweight
form of breathing protection. CAUTION Dust is
injurious to health and can provoke respiratory
illness, skin disease and allergic reactions.
