live electric cable may cause metal parts of the fastening tool also to become live,
leading to a risk of electric shock.
Use and care of battery-powered tools
▶ Check that the tool is switched off before inserting the battery. Inserting a battery
into an electric tool that is switched on can lead to accidents.
▶ Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, the direct heat of the sun, and
keep them away from fire. There is a risk of explosion.
▶ Do not disassemble, squash or incinerate batteries and do not subject them
to temperatures over 80°C. This presents a risk of fire, explosion or injury through
contact with caustic substances.
▶ Avoid ingress of moisture. Ingress of moisture may cause a short circuit, resulting in
burning injuries or fire.
▶ Use only batteries of the type approved for use with the applicable tool. Use of
other batteries or use of the batteries for purposes for which they are not intended
presents a risk of fire and explosion.
▶ Observe the special guidelines applicable to the transport, storage and use of
Li-ion batteries.
▶ Remove the battery from the tool before transport or storage.
▶ Avoid short circuiting the battery terminals. Check that the contacts on the
battery and on the tool are free from foreign objects before inserting the battery
into the tool. Short circuiting the battery terminals presents a risk of fire, explosion
and chemical burns.
▶ Do not continue to use or attempt to charge damaged batteries (e.g. batteries
with cracks, broken parts, bent or pushed-in / pulled-out contacts).
▶ A battery that is too hot to hold may be defective. Allow the battery to cool down in
a place where there is no risk of causing a fire. Check that there are no flammable
materials nearby. Contact Hilti Service.
Instructions for handling the propellant gas
▶ Observe the instructions printed on the gas can and in the accompanying information.
▶ Escaping gas is harmful to the lungs, skin and eyes. Keep your face and eyes away
from the gas can compartment for up to about 10 seconds after removing the gas
can.
▶ Do not operate the gas can valve manually.
▶ If a person has inhaled gas, take the person into the open air or into a well-ventilated
area and place the person in a comfortable position. Consult a doctor if necessary.
▶ Call a doctor if the person is unconscious. Bring the person into a well-ventilated
area and place the person in the stable recovery position (i.e. lying on the side). If
the person is not breathing, administer artificial respiration and, if necessary, supply
oxygen.
▶ After eye contact with gas, rinse the open eyes thoroughly under running water for
several minutes.
▶ After skin contact with gas, wash the contact area carefully with soap and warm water.
Subsequently apply a skin cream.
General instructions concerning personal safety
▶ Take care to adopt an ergonomic body position. Work from a safe stance and take
care to stay in balance at all times. This will allow you to control the fastening tool
better, even in unexpected situations.
▶ Keep other people away from the working area, especially children.
