8. Care and maintenance
When this type of tool is used under normal operating
conditions, dirt and residues build up inside the tool
and functionally relevant parts are also subject to wear.
Regular inspections and maintenance are thus essen-
tial in order to ensure reliable operation. We recom-
mend that the tool is cleaned and the piston and piston
brake are checked at least weekly when the tool is sub-
jected to intensive use, and at the latest after driving
10,000 fasteners.
8.1 Care of the tool
The outer casing of the tool is manufactured from impact-
resistant plastic. The grip comprises a synthetic rubber
section. The ventilation slots must be unobstructed and
kept clean at all times. Do not permit foreign objects to
enter the interior of the tool. Use a slightly damp cloth
to clean the outside of the tool at regular intervals. Do
not use a spray or steam-cleaning system for cleaning.
8.2 Maintenance
Check all external parts of the tool for damage at regu-
lar intervals and check that all controls operate proper-
ly. Do not operate the tool when parts are damaged or
when the controls do not operate properly. If necessary,
have the tool repaired at a Hilti service centre.
CAUTION
■
The tool can get hot while oper-
ating.
■
You could burn your hands.
■
Do not disassemble the tool while
it is hot. Let the tool cool down.
Servicing the tool
The tool should be serviced if:
1. Cartridges misfire
2. Fastener driving power is inconsistent
3. If you notice that:
●
contact pressure increases,
●
trigger force increases,
●
power regulation is difficult to adjust (stiff),
●
the cartridge strip is difficult to remove.
CAUTION while cleaning the tool:
●
Never use grease for maintenance/lubrication of tool
parts. This may strongly affect the functionality of the
tool. Use only Hilti spray or such of equivalent quality.
●
Dirt from DX tool contains substances that could be
endangering your health.
– Do not breath in the dust from cleaning.
– Keep dust away from food.
– Wash your hands after cleaning the tool.
