2 Safety
2.1 General power tool safety warnings
⚠ WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
▶ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
▶ Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
▶ Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
▶ Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
▶ Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
▶ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
▶ Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
▶ When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
▶ If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Personal safety
▶ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
▶ Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
▶ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off‐position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
▶ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
▶ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
▶ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
▶ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
▶ Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
▶ Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
▶ Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
▶ Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
▶ Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
▶ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
▶ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
2.2 Hammer safety warnings
▶ Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
▶ Use auxiliary handles, if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
▶ Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
2.3 Additional safety instructions
Personal safety
▶ Use the product only when it is in technically faultless condition.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the tool in any way.
▶ Apply appropriate safety measures at the opposite side of the workpiece in
work that involves breaking through. Parts breaking away could fall out and /
or fall down causing injury to other persons.
▶ Check that the side handle is fitted correctly and tightened securely.
Always hold the tool securely with both hands on the grips provided. Keep the
grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
▶ Take breaks between working and do physical exercises to improve the blood
circulation in your fingers. Exposure to vibration during long periods of work
can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous system in the fingers,
hands and wrists.
▶ The tool is not intended for use by debilitated persons who have received no
special training.
▶ Keep the power tool out of reach of children.
▶ Before beginning the work, check the hazard classification of the dust that
will be produced. Use an industrial vacuum cleaner with an officially approved
protection classification in compliance with locally applicable dust
protection regulations.
▶ Use a dust removal system and suitable vacuum cleaner whenever possible.
Dust from materials, such as paint containing lead, some wood species,
concrete/masonry/stone containing silica, and minerals as well as metal, may
be harmful.
▶ Make sure that the workplace is well ventilated and, where necessary, wear a
respirator appropriate for the type of dust generated. Contact with or
inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory or
other diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain kinds of dust are
classified as carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust, especially in
conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood
preservative). Material containing asbestos may be handled only by
specialists.
▶ Approval must be obtained from the site engineer or architect prior to
beginning the work. Work on buildings and other structures may influence the
statics of the structure, especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-
bearing components are cut through.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric cables
or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool may give you an
electric shock if you damage an electric cable accidentally.
▶ Check the power tool’s supply cord at regular intervals and have it replaced
by a qualified specialist if found to be damaged. If the power tool’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.
▶ Dirty or dusty power tools that have been used frequently for work on
conductive materials should be checked at regular intervals at a Hilti Service
Center. Dust (especially dust from conductive materials) or dampness adhering
to the surface of the power tool may, under unfavourable conditions, lead to
electric shock.
▶ Switch the power tool off and unplug the supply cord in the event of a power
failure or interruption in the electric supply. This will prevent accidental
restarting when the electric power returns.

When powered by a generator or transformer, the generator or transformer’s power output must be at least twice the rated input power shown on the rating plate of the power tool. The operating voltage of the transformer or generator must always be within +5% and -15% of the rated voltage of the power tool.
4.2 Noise information and vibration values in accordance with EN 62841
The sound pressure and vibration values given in these instructions were measured in accordance with a standardized test and can be used to compare one power tool with another. They can also be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The data given represent the main applications of the power tool. However, if
the power tool is used for different applications, with different accessory
tools, or is poorly maintained, the data can vary. This can significantly
increase exposure over the total working period.
An accurate estimation of exposure should also take into account the times
when the tool is switched off, or when it is running but not actually being
used for a job. This can significantly reduce exposure over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects
of noise and/or vibration, for example: maintaining the power tool and
accessory tools, keeping the hands warm, organization of work patterns.
