Using and handling power tools with care
▶
Grinding discs must be stored and handled carefully in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
▶
Never use the power tool without the guard (hood).
▶
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece in position.
The workpiece is
thus held more securely than by hand and both hands remain free to operate the power tool.
▶
Do not use cutting discs for grinding.
▶
Tighten the accessory tool and flange securely.
If the accessory tool and flange are not tightened
securely, the accessory tool may work loose from the spindle due to the braking effect of the motor after
switching off.
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.
▶
Dirty or dusty power tools that have been used frequently for work on conductive materials should
be checked at regular intervals at a Hilti Service Center.
Under unfavorable circumstances, dampness
or dust adhering to the surface of the power tool, especially dust from conductive materials, may lead to
damage to the power tool.
Careful handling and use of batteries
▶
Observe the special guidelines applicable to the transport, storage and use of Li-ion batteries.
▶
Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, direct sunlight or 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.
▶
Never continue to use or attempt to charge damaged batteries, e.g. batteries with cracks, broken
parts, bent or pushed-in / pulled-out contacts).
▶
If the battery is too hot to touch it may be defective.
In this case, place the power tool in a non-
flammable location, well away from flammable materials, where it can be kept under observation
and allowed to cool down. Contact Hilti Service after the battery has cooled down.
Workplace
▶
Apply appropriate safety measures at the opposite side of the workpiece in work that involves
breaking through.
Pieces of debris could drop out and / or fall down and injure other persons.
▶
Slits cut in load-bearing walls of buildings or other structures may influence the statics of the structure,
especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut through.
Consult the
responsible structural engineer, architect or person in charge of the building project before
beginning the work.
