▶ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
▶ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
▶ Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
▶ Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130° C (265 °F) may cause explosion.
▶ Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
▶ Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
2.2 Additional safety instructions
Personal safety
▶ Use the product and accessories only when they are in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the product or accessories in any way.
▶ Dust produced by grinding, sanding, cutting and drilling can contain dangerous chemicals. Some
examples are: lead or lead-based paints; brick, concrete and other masonry products, natural stone
and other products containing silicates; certain types of wood, such as oak, beech and chemically
treated wood; asbestos or materials that contain asbestos. Determine the exposure of the operator and
bystanders by means of the hazard classification of the materials to be worked. Implement the necessary
measures to restrict exposure to a safe level, for example by the use of a dust collection system or by
the wearing of suitable respiratory protection. The general measures for reducing exposure include:
▶ working in an area that is well ventilated,
▶ avoidance of prolonged contact with dust,
▶ directing dust away from the face and body,
▶ wearing protective clothing and washing exposed areas of the skin with water and soap.
▶ Touch the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces only, when carrying out work in which the
accessory tool can come into contact with concealed wiring.
▶ Wear protective gloves. The cut edges and metal swarf are sharp-edged and there is a risk of cut injuries.
The product and the workpiece become hot in the working process and there is a risk of burn injuries.
▶ Wear protective gloves also when changing the accessory tool. Touching the accessory tool presents a
risk of injury (cuts or burns).
▶ Take frequent breaks and do physical exercises to improve the blood circulation in your fingers. High
vibration during long periods of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous system in
the fingers, hands and wrists.
▶ Wear eye protection, a hard hat and ear protection while the product is in use.
▶ Switch the product on only after you have brought it to the working position.
▶ Wait until the product has come to a complete stop before you lay it down.
▶ Do not work overhead with the product.
▶ Risk of injury by falling tools and/or accessories. Before starting work, check that the battery and installed
accessories are secure.
▶ Do not secure a belt hook to this power tool.
▶ Keep the air vents clear at all times. Risk of burn injuries due to blocked air vents!
Electrical safety
▶ Have dirtied or dusty products that are used frequently for working on conductive materials checked at
regular intervals by Hilti Service. Dust, especially dust from conductive materials, or dampness on the
surface of the product can, under unfavorable conditions, lead to electric shock.
▶ Clean the ventilation slots on the power tool at regular intervals. The motor's fan will draw dust inside the
housing and an excessive accumulation of metal dust may cause electrical hazards.
