prevent unintentional starting.

guide from the stand-up tool.
8.1 Care of screwdriving bits
Clean off dirt and dust deposits adhering to the screw-
driving bits and spindle and protect them from corrosion
by wiping them from time to time with an oil-soaked rag.
8.2 Care of the appliance
DANGER
Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
The appliance can be washed under running water if it
has become very dirty. The appliance should then be
dried and rubbed with an oily cloth to prevent corrosion.
8.3 Maintenance

at regular intervals and check that all controls operate
faultlessly. Do not operate the appliance if parts are
damaged or when the controls do not function faultlessly.
If necessary, the appliance should be repaired by Hilti
Service.
8.4 Checking the appliance after care and
maintenance
After carrying out care and maintenance, drive several
screws in order to check that the appliance functions
correctly.
9 Disposal
Most of the materials from which Hilti tools and appliances 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 and appliances for recycling. Ask Hilti customer service or your Hilti representative for further
information. Should you wish to return the appliance yourself to a disposal facility for recycling, dismantle it as far as
possible without need for special tools.
