5 Safety instructions

5.1 Basic information concerning safety
In addition to the information relevant to safety given
in each of the sections of these operating instructions,
the following points must be strictly observed at all
times.
5.1.1 Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a direct fastening
tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Avoid unfavorable body positions. Make sure you
work from a safe stance and stay in balance at all
times.
c) Never point the tool toward yourself or other per-
sons.
d) Never press the nosepiece of the tool against your
hand or against any other part of your body (or
other person's hand or part of their body).
e) Keep other persons, especially children, away
from the area in which the work is being carried
out.
Keep the arms slightly bent while operating the
f)
tool (do not straighten the arms).
5.1.2 Use and care of powder-actuated fastening
tools
a) Use the right tool for the job. Do not use the tool
for purposes for which it was not intended. Use it
only as directed and when in faultless condition.
b) Press the tool against the working surface at right
angles.
c) Never leave a loaded tool unattended.
d) Always unload the tool (remove cartridges and
fasteners) before cleaning, before maintenance,
before work breaks and before storing the tool.

e) When not in use, tools must be unloaded and
stored in a dry place, locked up or out of reach of
children.
f) Check the tool and its accessories for any dam-
age. Guards, safety devices and any slightly worn
parts must be checked carefully to ensure that
they function faultlessly and as intended. Check
that moving parts function correctly without stick-
ing and that no parts are damaged. All parts must
be fitted correctly and fulfill all conditions neces-
sary for correct operation of the tool. Damaged
guards, safety devices and other parts must be
repaired or replaced properly at a Hilti service
center unless otherwise indicated in the operat-
ing instructions.
g) Pull the trigger only when the tool is fully pressed
against the working surface at right angles.
h) Always hold the tool securely and at right angles
to the working surface when driving in fasteners.
This will help to prevent fasteners being deflected
by the working surface.
Never redrive a fastener. This may cause the
i)
fastener to break and the tool may jam.
j) Never drive fasteners into existing holes unless
this is recommended by Hilti.
k) Always observe the application guidelines.
l) Use the spall guard when the application permits.
m) Never pull the magazine or fastener guide back by
hand as this could, under certain circumstances,
make the tool ready to fire. This could cause a
fastener to be driven into a part of the body.
