10. Disposal
Return waste material for recycling
Most of the materials from which Hilti power tools are manufactured can be recycled. The materials must be cor-
rectly 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 sales representative
for further information.
Disposal of drilling slurry
With regard to environmental aspects, allowing drilling slurry to flow directly into rivers, lakes or the sewerage sys-
tem without suitable pre-treatment is problematical. Ask the local authorities for information about applicable reg-
ulations.
We recommend the following pre-treatment:
●
Collect the drilling slurry (e.g. use an industrial vacuum cleaner).
●
Allow the slurry to settle and dispose of the solid material at a construction waste disposal site (the addition of a
flocculent may accelerate the settling process).
●
Water from the drilling slurry should be neutralised by adding a neutralising agent or large quantity of water before
it is allowed to flow into the sewerage system.
11. 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.
Only for EU countries
Disposal of electric tools together with household waste is not permissible !
In observance of European Directive on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implemen-
tation in accordance with national law, electric tools that have reached the end of their life must be col-
lected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.
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.
