5.1.4 Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
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
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5.1.5 Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one
type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) 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 termin-
als together may cause burns or a fire.
as oak and beech dust especially in conjunction
with additives for wood conditioning (chromate,
wood preservative). Material containing asbestos
must only be treated by specialists. Where the
use of a dust extraction device is possible it
shall be used. To achieve a high level of dust
collection, use a suitable vacuum cleaner of the
type recommended by Hilti for wood dust and/or
mineral dust together with this tool. Ensure that
the workplace is well ventilated. The use of a
dust mask of filter class P2 is recommended.
Follow national requirements for the materials
you want to work with.
5.2.2 Power tool use and care
a) Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice
to secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thus
held more securely than by hand and both hands
remain free to operate the power tool.
b) Check that the insert tools used are compatible
with the chuck system and that they are secured
in the chuck correctly.
5.2.3 Battery tool use and care
a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack
into power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
b) Do not expose batteries to high temperatures or
fire. This presents a risk of explosion.
c) Do not disassemble, squash or incinerate bat-
teries and do not subject them to temperatures
over 80°C. A risk of fire, explosion or injury
through contact with caustic substances may
otherwise result.
d) Avoid ingress of dampness.Dampness may
cause a short circuit resulting in a risk of burning
injury or fire.
e) Do not use batteries other than those approved
for use with the applicable power tool or appli-
ance. Use of other batteries or use of the battery
for purposes for which it is not intended presents
a risk of fire and explosion.
f) Observe the special instructions applicable to
the transport, storage and use of Li-ion batter-
ies.
g) Remove the battery before storing or transport-
ing the power tool.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejec-
ted 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 irrita-
tion or burns.
5.1.6 Service
a) 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.
5.2 Additional safety instructions
5.2.1 Personal safety
a) Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, when performing an operation where the
fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
b) Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
c) Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
d) Always hold the power tool securely with both
hands on the grips provided. Keep the grips dry,
clean and free from oil and grease.
e) Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by
relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers
during breaks between working.
f) Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the power
tool on only after bringing it into position at the
workpiece. Touching rotating parts, especially
rotating insert tools, may lead to injury.
g) Activate the safety lock (forward / reverse switch
in the middle position) before storing or trans-
porting the power tool.
h) The power tool is not intended for use by chil-
dren, by debilitated persons or those who have
received no instruction or training.
i) Children must be instructed not to play with the
power tool.
j) Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be
harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust
may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain
kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic such
21
h) Avoid short-circuiting the battery. Check that the
terminals on the battery and in the power tool
are free from foreign objects before inserting
the battery in the power tool. Short circuiting the
battery terminals presents a risk of fire, explosion
and chemical burns.
i) Do not charge or continue to use damaged bat-
teries (e.g. batteries with cracks, broken parts,
bent or pushed-in and/or pulled-out contacts).
j) If the battery gets too hot to touch, this may in-
dicate that it is faulty. Place the tool at a location
where there is no risk of causing a fire (at least 3
meters away from flammable materials), where
it can be kept under observation and allowed to
cool. Contact Hilti Service after the battery has
been allowed to cool.
5.2.4 Electrical safety
Before beginning work, check the working area
(e.g. using a metal detector) to ensure that no
concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes
are present. External metal parts of the power tool
may become live, for example, when an electric cable
is damaged accidentally. This presents a serious risk
of electric shock.
5.2.5 Work area
a) Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
b) Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated.
Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace
may result in damage to the health.
5.2.6 Personal protective equipment
The user and any other persons in the vicinity must
wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat, ear pro-
tection, protective gloves and breathing protection
while the tool is in use.
