▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into unsuitable materials.
◁ Unsuitable materials include welded steel and cast steel, cast iron, glass, marble, plastic, bronze,
brass, copper, insulating material, hollow brick, ceramic brick, thin sheet metal (< 4 mm) and cellular
concrete. Driving a fastener into these materials may cause the fastener to break, shatter or to be
driven right through.
▶ Pull the trigger only when the tool is fully pressed against the working surface at right angles.
▶ When driving fasteners, always hold the fastening tool at right angles to the working surface in order to
prevent the fastener being deflected by the surface.
▶ Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
▶ Never drop the tool.
▶ Do not use the magazine as a grip.
▶ Do not use the tool in places where there is a risk of fire or explosion unless the tool is specially approved
for this type of use.
▶ Never drive fasteners into existing holes unless this is recommended by Hilti (e.g. DX-Kwik).
Workstation
▶ Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could cause injury should be removed from the working area.
◁ Untidiness in the working area can lead to accidents.
▶ Make sure that the working area is well lit and well ventilated.
Mechanical safety rules
▶ Do not tamper with or modify the tool or parts of it, especially the piston.
▶ Use only fasteners of a type approved for use with the tool.
Thermal safety rules
▶ Do not exceed the recommended maximum fastener driving rate.
▶ If the tool has overheated, allow it to cool down.
▶ Do not dismantle the tool while it is hot. Allow the tool to cool down.
2.4 Battery use and care
▶ Observe the special regulations and instructions applicable to the transport, storage and use of Li-ion
batteries.
▶ Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, direct sunlight or fire.
▶ Do not disassemble, crush or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over 80 °C.
▶ Do not use or charge batteries that have suffered mechanical impact, have been dropped from a height
or show signs of damage. In this case, always contact your Hilti Service.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch it may be defective. In this case, place the product in a non-flammable
location, well away from flammable materials, where it can be kept under observation and allowed to
cool down. In this case, always contact your Hilti Service.
