7.3 Charging the battery
DANGER
Use only the Hilti batteries and Hilti chargers listed
under “Accessories”.
7.3.1 Charging a new battery for the first time
A new battery must be charged correctly for the first time
before use. This will ensure that the cells form correctly.
Incorrect initial charging may have a permanent, negative
effect on battery capacity. Please refer to the applicable
battery charger’s operating instructions for information
about initial charging.
7.3.2 Recharging a battery
Ensure that the outer surfaces of the battery are clean
and dry before inserting it in the corresponding charger.
Read the operating instructions for the charger for further
information about the charging procedure.
Li-ion batteries are ready for use at any time, even when
only partly charged. Charging progress is indicated by
the LED display (see charger operating instructions).
7.4 Fitting the battery
5
DANGER
Use only the Hilti batteries and Hilti chargers listed
under “Accessories”.
CAUTION
Check that the terminals on the battery and in the
power tool are free from foreign objects before in-
serting the battery in the power tool.
1. Push the battery into the power tool from the rear
until it is heard to engage with a double click.
2.
CAUTION A falling battery may present a risk of
injury to yourself or others.
Check that the battery is seated securely in the
power tool.
7.5 Removing the battery
6
1. Press both battery release buttons.
2. Pull the battery out of the power tool toward the
rear.
7.6 Transport and storage of battery packs
Pull the battery pack out of the locked position (working
position) and move it into the first click-stop position
(transport position).
If you disconnect a battery pack from the power tool
for transport or storage, make sure that the contacts of
the battery pack are not short-circuited. Remove loose
metal parts such as screws, nails, clamps, loose screw
bits, wires or metal swarf from the case, toolbox or
transport container, or prevent these parts from coming
into contact with the battery packs.
Observe national and international transport regulations
when shipping battery packs (transportation by road, rail,
sea or air).
8 Operation
NOTE
To ensure good cutting performance and minimize stress
on the power tool, use only saw blades that are in good
condition.
CAUTION
Do not overload the power tool. It will work more
efficiently and more safely within its intended perfor-
mance range.
CAUTION
Wear protective glasses and a dust mask.
The sawing
operation swirls up dust and wood chips into the air. The
dust and wood chips may be harmful to the eyes and
respiratory system.
CAUTION
Dusts are hazardous to the health and can cause respi-
ratory or skin diseases and allergic reactions.
WARNING
Certain dusts are considered to be carcinogenic (cause
cancer). These include mineral dust as well as oak and/or
beech wood dust, particularly in conjunction with addi-
tional substances used for the treatment of wood (chro-
mate, wood preservatives).
CAUTION
Wear ear protectors.
The power tool and the sawing
operation generate noise. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
CAUTION
Wear protective gloves.
The cutting edges of the saw
blade teeth are sharp. The cutting edges may present a
risk of injury.
CAUTION
Always guide the power tool away from your body
when working with it.
