Hilti TE 30-A36 Original Operating Instructions page 10

▶ The tool is not intended for use by debilitated persons who have received no special training.
▶ Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool.
▶ 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. 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. Use a dust removal system whenever possible. To achieve a high level
of dust collection, use a suitable vacuum cleaner. When indicated, wear a respirator appropriate
for the type of dust generated. Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Follow national
requirements for the materials you want to work with.
▶ 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.
▶ Observe the national health and safety requirements.
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.
Careful handling and use of power tools
▶ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped in a vice or secured by some other clamping device
is more secure than when held only by hand.
▶ Switch the power tool off if the accessory tool sticks and stalls. The power tool may be deflected
laterally.
▶ Wait until the power tool stops completely before you lay it down.
Careful handling and use of batteries
▶ Observe the special guidelines applicable to the transport, storage and use of lithium-ion batteries.
▶ 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.
▶ Never continue to use or attempt to charge damaged batteries, e.g. batteries with cracks, broken
parts, bent or pushed-in / pulled-out contacts).
▶ Do not use the battery as a power source for other unspecified power tools or appliances.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch it may be defective. In this case, place the power tool in a non-
flammable location, well away from flammable materials, where it can be kept under observation
and allowed to cool down. Contact Hilti Service after the battery has cooled down.
