5. Safety precautions
drive unit and control unit. Ensure that the handles are
always kept clean and free of grease.
■
If the drive unit and control unit are to be transport-
ed by means of a crane, the lifting points provided must
be used.
■
Because of the risk of tipping, the drive unit may be
transported in an upright position only when assisted
by at least two persons and this may be done only on a
solid floor or solid ground.
General safety information
■
Use the electric wire saw only when you have read
the operating instructions, when you are familiar with
the information contained therein and when you have
been trained to use the equipment safely by a Hilti spe-
cialist. All warnings and safety information must be
observed.
■
Always keep the operating instructions with the equip-
ment and pass them on to any subsequent user who has
been trained in its use.
■
When not in use, store the wire saw in a locked, dry
place out of reach of children.
■
In addition to carrying out the specified care and main-
tenance, careful cleaning is also a prerequisite for safe,
trouble-free operation of the equipment.
■
Do not leave tools(e.g. open-end wrenches) in place
on the equipment. Check the drive unit to ensure that all
tools have been removed before switching on.
■
Keep the working area tidy and well lit. An untidy work-
place and inadequate lighting increases the risk of acci-
dent.
■
Wear suitable, close-fitting work clothes including a
hard-hat, protective goggles, protective gloves and safe-
ty footwear.
■
Respiratory protection should be worn when work-
5.7
ing in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas and when dry
cutting is being carried out.
■
Keep children and other persons well away from the
workplace and allow no-one to touch the wire saw or
power cable.
■
Failure to comply with the warnings and safety infor-
mation may lead to severe or possibly fatal injury as
well as serious damage to the equipment and other
property.
■
The machine is not intended for use by children, by
debilitated persons or those who have received no
instruction or training.
■
Children must be instructed not to play with the
machine.
■
Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be harm-
ful. 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
as oak and beech dust especially in conjunction with
additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood preser-
vative). Material containing asbestos may be worked
on only by specialists.
Where the use of a dust extraction device is possi-
ble 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 work-
place is well ventilated. The use of a dust mask of
filter class P2 is recommended. Observe current
national regulations applicable to the materials to
be worked on.
