Hilti PR 2-HS A12 Mode D'emploi Original page 21

2.1.3 Proper preparation of the working area
▶ Secure the area in which you will be taking measurements. Make sure that the laser beam is not
directed toward other persons or toward yourself while setting up the PR 2-HS A12.
▶ Avoid unfavorable body positions when working from ladders. Make sure you work from a safe
stance and stay in balance at all times.
▶ Readings taken in the vicinity of reflective objects or surfaces, through panes of glass or similar materials
may produce incorrect results.
▶ Ensure that the tool is set up on a stable, level surface (not subject to vibration).
▶ Use the tool only within its specified limits.
▶ Use the tool and its accessories etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of tool. Take the working conditions and the task to be performed
into account. Use of tools for applications different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
▶ Use of the telescopic staff in the vicinity of overhead high voltage cables is not permissible.
2.1.4 Electromagnetic compatibility
Although the tool complies with the strict requirements of the applicable directives, Hilti cannot exclude the
following possibilities:
• The tool may be negatively affected by powerful electromagnetic radiation, possibly leading to incorrect
operation.
In these cases, or if you are otherwise unsure, confirmatory measurements should be made by other
means.
• The tool may cause interference to other devices (e.g. aircraft navigation equipment).
Only for Korea:
This device is suitable for the electromagnetic radiation encountered in residential environments (Class B). It
is intended mainly for use in residential environments but may also be used in other environments.
2.1.5 Laser classification for Class 2 laser products
The tool complies with laser Class 2 as per IEC60825-1:2007 / EN60825-1:2007. This tool may be used
without need for further protective measures.
CAUTION
Risk of injury! Do not direct the laser beam toward persons.
▶ Never look directly into the source of the laser beam. In the event of direct eye contact, close your eyes
and move your head out of the path of the laser beam.
2.1.6 Careful use of battery-powered tools
▶ Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, the direct heat of the sun, and keep them away
from fire. There is a risk of explosion.
▶ Do not disassemble, squash or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over
80°C (176°F). This presents a risk of fire, explosion or injury through contact with caustic substances.
▶ Do not subject the battery to hard mechanical impacts and do not throw the battery.
▶ Batteries must be kept out of reach of children.
▶ Avoid ingress of moisture. Ingress of moisture may cause a short circuit, resulting in burning injuries or
fire.
▶ Under abusive conditions, liquid may leak from the battery. Avoid contact with the liquid. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If the liquid contacts the eyes, also seek medical attention.
Liquid leaking from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
▶ Use only batteries of the type approved for use with the applicable tool. Use of other batteries or
use of the batteries for purposes for which they are not intended presents a risk of fire and explosion.
▶ Store the battery in a cool and dry place. Never store the battery where it is exposed to direct sunlight or
sources of heat, e.g. on heaters / radiators or behind glass.
▶ When not in use, keep the battery and the charger away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects that could cause a short circuit at the battery terminals or the
charging contacts. Short-circuiting the contacts on a battery or charger may cause burning injuries or
start a fire.
▶ Do not charge or continue to use damaged batteries (e.g. batteries with cracks, broken parts, bent
or pushed-in and/or pulled-out contacts).
