Electrical Safety; Safety At The Workplace - Hilti DSH 700 Manual Del Usuario

▶ Consult the responsible structural engineer, architect or person in charge of the building project before
beginning the work. Slits cut in load-bearing walls of buildings or other structures may influence the
statics of the structure, especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut
through.
▶ Apply appropriate safety measures at the opposite side of the workpiece in work that involves breaking
through. Pieces of debris could drop out and / or fall down and injure other persons.
▶ Never leave the product running while unattended. Switch the engine off and wait until the cutting disc
has completely stopped rotating before placing the product on the ground or before transporting it.
▶ If the product is operated without an external water pump, it is essential that the pump cover is fitted.
▶ Switch the product off after use.
▶ Look after the product carefully. Check to ensure that no parts are broken or damaged in such a way
that the product may no longer function correctly. If parts are damaged, have the parts replaced before
use of the product.
▶ To reduce the risk of injury, use only genuine Hilti accessories and accessory tools.
▶ Have the product repaired only by qualified, skilled personnel, using only genuine Hilti spare parts. The
safety of the product can thus be maintained.
▶ Observe the national health and safety requirements.

2.1.2 Electrical safety

▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes.
External metal parts of the machine may give you an electric shock if you damage an electric cable
accidentally.

2.1.3 Safety at the workplace

▶ Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
▶ Don't work in closed rooms. Carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and benzene in the exhaust gas
may cause asphyxiation.
▶ Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could cause injury should be removed from the working area.
Untidiness at the workplace can lead to accidents.
▶ Hot exhaust gases containing sparks or sparks generated by the cutting operation may cause fire or
explosion. Take care to ensure that the sparks generated do not ignite flammable (gasoline, dry grass,
etc.) or explosive (gas, etc.) substances.
▶ Before fitting the water pump, check to ensure that the maximum permitted water supply pressure of 6
bar is not exceeded.
▶ Fit the filled water tank only after the saw has been mounted on the saw trolley. This will help to prevent
the trolley falling over.
▶ Do not stand the product and the saw trolley on an inclined surface. Always check to ensure that the
product and the saw trolley are standing securely.
2.1.4 Liquids (gasoline and oil) and vapors
▶ Allow the product to cool before refueling.
▶ Never smoke while refueling.
▶ Don't refuel the product at the workplace area. When refueling, take care to avoid fuel spillage. Use a
suitable funnel.
▶ Avoid inhaling gasoline vapors and exhaust fumes. Take care to ensure adequate ventilation.
▶ Don't use the gasoline or other flammable liquids for cleaning.
2.1.5 Cutting work using cutting discs
▶ Use only cutting discs with a rated maximum permissible speed that's at least as high as the highest
spindle speed.
▶ Check that the outside diameter and the thickness of the cutting disc comply with the capacity rating of
the product.
▶ Never use cutting discs that are damaged, run untrue or vibrate.
▶ Do not use damaged diamond cutting discs (cracks in the steel disc, broken or polished segments,
damaged arbor hole, bent or distorted steel disc, heavy discoloration due to overheating, steel disc worn
away beneath the segments, diamond segments with no lateral overhang, etc.).
▶ Do not use toothed accessory cutting tools (e.g. toothed saw blades).
▶ When fitting the cutting disc, always take care to ensure that the disc's specified direction of rotation
corresponds to the direction of rotation of the spindle.
