2. Safety information

WARNING

Improper disposal of the equipment
may lead to the following:

• Burning of plastic components generates

toxic fumes which may present a health
hazard.

• If damaged or exposed to very high

temperatures, batteries may explode, causing
poisoning, burns, acid burns or environmental
pollution.

• Careless disposal enables unauthorised

persons to make improper use of the
equipment, which may lead to serious injury
to themselves or a third party and to pollution
of the environment.

Preventative measures

Most of the materials from which Hilti tools are
manufactured can be recycled. The materials
must be correctly separated before they can be
recycled. In many countries, Hilti has already
made arrangements for taking back old tools for
recycling. Please ask your Hilti customer service
department or Hilti representative for further
