for the type of dust generated. Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Follow national
requirements for the materials you want to work with.
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.
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 and keep them away from fire. There is a risk of
explosion.
▶ Do not disassemble, crush or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over
80°C (176°F). 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 hold, 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 HiltiService after the battery has cooled down.
