of work. To reduce exposure to these chemicals,
the operator and bystanders should work in a
well-ventilated area, work with approved safety
equipment, such as respiratory protection ap-
propriate for the type of dust generated, and
designed to filter out microscopic particles and
direct dust away from the face and body. Avoid
prolonged contact with dust. Wear protective
clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and
water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth,
eyes, or to remain on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
5.2.2 Power tool use and care
a) Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice
to secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thus
held more securely than by hand and both hands
remain free to operate the power tool.
b) Check that the insert tools used are compatible
with the chuck system and that they are secured
in the chuck correctly.
5.2.3 Battery tool use and care
a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting the battery pack. Inserting the battery
pack into a lamp that is switched on may dazzle
you.
b) Do not expose batteries to high temperatures or
fire. This presents a risk of explosion.
c) Batteries must not be opened or dismantled,
squashed, heated to temperatures over 100°C
or incinerated. A risk of fire, explosion or injury
through contact with caustic substances may
otherwise result.
d) Avoid ingress of dampness.Dampness may
cause a short circuit resulting in a risk of burning
injury or fire.
e) Do not use batteries other than those approved
for use with the applicable power tool or appli-
ance. Use of other batteries or use of the battery
for purposes for which it is not intended presents
a risk of fire and explosion.
f) Observe the special instructions applicable to
the transport, storage and use of Li-ion batter-
ies.
g) Avoid short-circuiting the battery. Check that the
terminals on the battery and in the power tool
Printed: 07.07.2013 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5070682 / 000 / 00
are free from foreign objects before inserting
the battery in the power tool. Short circuiting the
battery terminals presents a risk of fire, explosion
and chemical burns.
h) Do not charge or continue to use damaged bat-
teries (e.g. batteries with cracks, broken parts,
bent or pushed-in and/or pulled-out contacts).
i) If the battery gets too hot to touch, this may indi-
cate that it is faulty. Place the tool at a location
where there is no risk of causing a fire (at least 3
meters away from flammable materials), where
it can be kept under observation and allowed to
cool. Contact Hilti Service after the battery has
been allowed to cool.
5.2.4 Electrical safety
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 power tool
may become live, for example, when an electric cable
is damaged accidentally. This presents a serious risk
of electric shock.

5.2.5 Work area

a) Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
b) Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated.
Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace
may result in damage to the health.

5.2.6 Personal protective equipment

The user and any other persons in the vicinity must
wear ANSI Z87.1-approved eye protection, a hard
hat, ear protection, protective gloves and breathing
protection while the machine is in use.
