▶ The diamond core drilling machine and the diamond core bit are heavy. There is a risk of crushing parts
of the body. The user and persons in the vicinity must wear suitable protective goggles, a hard hat,
ear defenders, protective gloves and protective footwear while the machine is in use.
Power tool use and care
▶ Make sure that the machine is correctly secured to the drill stand.
▶ Always make sure that an end stop is installed on the drill stand as otherwise the safety-relevant
end-stop function is not implemented.
▶ Check that accessory tools are compatible with the machine's chuck/drive system and that they
are installed and secured correctly.
Electrical safety
▶ Do not use extension cords with multiple power outlets powering two or more devices in operation
at the same time.
▶ Operate the machine only when it is connected to an adequately rated power supply with a ground
conductor.
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area (e.g. using a metal detector) to ensure that no
concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes are present. External metal parts of the machine
can become live, for example if you inadvertently damage electric wiring. This constitutes a serious risk
of electric shock.
▶ Make sure that the supply cord cannot be damaged as the carriage advances.
▶ Never operate the machine without the accompanying PRCD (machines without PRCD: Never
operate the machine without an isolating transformer). Test the PRCD each time before use.
▶ Check the machine's supply cord at regular intervals and have it replaced by a qualified specialist if
found to be damaged. If the machine's supply cord is damaged it must be replaced with a specially
prepared and approved supply cord available from Hilti Customer Service. Check extension cords
at regular intervals and replace them if found to be damaged. Do not touch the supply cord or
extension cord if it is damaged while working. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power
outlet. Damaged supply cords or extension cords present a risk of electric shock.
▶ Never operate the machine when it is dirty or wet. Dust (especially dust from conductive materials)
or dampness adhering to the surface of the machine may, under unfavorable conditions, lead to electric
shock. Dirty or dusty machines should thus be checked by Hilti Service at regular intervals, especially if
used frequently for working on conductive materials.
Workplace
▶ Approval must be obtained from the site engineer or architect prior to beginning drilling work.
Drilling work on buildings and other structures may influence the static equilibrium of the structure,
especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut through.
▶ If the drill stand has not been fastened correctly, always move the machine mounted on the drill
stand all the way down in order to prevent the stand from falling over.
▶ Keep the supply cord, extension cord, water hose and vacuum hose away from rotating parts of
the machine.
▶ Use of the water collection system in conjunction with a wet-type industrial vacuum extractor is a
mandatory requirement for wet drilling overhead.
▶ Use of the vacuum securing method without an additional means of fastening is prohibited for
drilling in an upward direction.
▶ An additional means of securing the drill stand must be employed when the machine is secured
with the vacuum securing method (accessory) for horizontal drilling.
