Fitting The Battery; Operation - Hilti SCM 18-A Manual De Instrucciones

6.2.1 Charging a new battery for the first time
Charge the battery fully before using it for the first time.
6.2.2 Charging a previously used 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.
Lithium-ion battery packs are ready to use at any time,
even when only partially charged. Charging progress
is indicated by the LED display (see charger operating
instructions).

6.3 Fitting the battery

CAUTION
Before fitting the battery, check that the power tool is
switched off and the switch-on interlock is activated
(not pressed). Use only the Hilti batteries approved
for use with this power tool.
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 as
far as it will go and until it is heard to engage with a
double click.

7 Operation

NOTE
If the blade has jammed, the tool will not restart by itself
after pressure on it has been released. The switch-on
interlock and the on/off button must be pressed again to
restart.
NOTE
The chip collector must always be fitted when the tool is
in use.
CAUTION
Wear protective gloves. The cutting edges of the saw
blade and cut edges of the workpiece are sharp. These
sharp edges present a risk of injury.
CAUTION
Wear protective glasses and a dust mask. The sawing
operation swirls up dust and chips into the air. The dust
and chips may be harmful to the eyes and respiratory
system.
CAUTION A falling battery may present a risk of
2.
injury to yourself or others.
Check that the battery is seated securely in the
power tool.
6.4 Removing the battery from the power tool
1. Press both battery release buttons.
2. Pull the battery out of the power tool toward the
rear.
6.5 Transport and storage of batteries
CAUTION
Empty the chip collector and clean the power tool
before putting it away in the toolbox or other container
for storage or transport. Metal chips may otherwise fall
out of the collector and find their way into the power
tool, battery or charger, presenting a risk of damage or
malfunction.
Pull the battery out of the locked position (working posi-
tion) and move it into the first click-stop position (trans-
port position).
If you disconnect a battery from the power tool for trans-
port or storage, make sure that the battery contacts are
not short-circuited. Remove loose metal items such as
screws, nails, clamps, loose screwdriving bits, wires or
metal cuttings and chips from the toolbox or transport
container, or prevent these items from coming into con-
tact with the battery.
Observe national and international transport regulations
when shipping batteries (transportation by road, rail, sea
or air).
CAUTION
Wear ear protectors. The power tool and the sawing
operation generate noise. Exposure to noise can cause
loss of hearing.
CAUTION
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to secure
the workpiece. This will help to prevent vibration.
CAUTION
Do not saw off very narrow strips. Narrow strips may
be caught by the blade and pulled in, causing jamming,
or may be thrown out, presenting a risk of injury.
CAUTION
When sawing, take care to ensure that there are no
flammable materials in the vicinity and that no hot
metal cuttings fall onto highly flammable materials.
CAUTION
Do not use coolants or lubricants when sawing.
