11. Disposal
Most of the materials from which Hilti electric 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 your old electric tools for recycling. Please ask your Hilti customer service department or Hilti rep-
resentative for further information.
Should you wish to return the electric tool yourself to a disposal facility for recycling, proceed as follows: Dis-
mantle the electric tool as far as possible without the need for special tools. Use absorbent paper to wipe oily
parts clean and to collect any grease that runs out (total quantity approx. 50 ml). This paper should also be
disposed of correctly.
On no account should grease be allowed to enter the waste water system or to find
its way into the ground.
The individual parts should be separated as follows:

12. Manufacturer's warranty – tools
Hilti warrants that the tool supplied is free of defects
in material and workmanship. This warranty is valid so
long as the tool is operated and handled correctly,
cleaned and serviced properly and in accordance with
the Hilti Operating Instructions, and the technical sys-
tem is maintained. This means that only original Hilti
consumables, components and spare parts may be
used in the tool.
This warranty provides the free-of-charge repair or
replacement of defective parts only over the entire lifes-
pan of the tool. Parts requiring repair or replacement
as a result of normal wear and tear are not covered by
this warranty.
Additional claims are excluded, unless stringent
national rules prohibit such exclusion. In particular,
Hilti is not obligated for direct, indirect, incidental
or consequential damages, losses or expenses in
connection with, or by reason of, the use of, or inabil-
ity to use the tool for any purpose. Implied warranties
of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose
are specifically excluded.
For repair or replacement, send tool or related parts
immediately upon discovery of the defect to the address
of the local Hilti marketing organization provided.
This constitutes Hilti's entire obligation with regard to
warranty and supersedes all prior or contemporane-
ous comments and oral or written agreements con-
cerning warranties.
