1.1 Basic safety instructions
In addition to the safety rules listed in the individual
sections of these operating instructions, the following
points must be strictly observed at all times.
1.2 Only use Hilti cartridges or cartridges of equiva-
lent quality
The use of cartridges of inferior quality in Hilti tools may
lead to build-up of unburned powder, which may explo-
de and cause severe injuries to operators and bystan-
ders. At a minimum, cartridges must either:
a) Be confirmed by their supplier to have been suc-
cessfully tested in accordance with EU standard EN
16264
NOTE:
● All Hilti cartridges for powder-actuated tools have
been tested successfully in accordance with EN 16264.
● The tests defined in the EN 16264 standard are system
tests carried out by the certification authority using
specific combinations of cartridges and tools.
The tool designation, the name of the certification aut-
hority and the system test number are printed on the
cartridge packaging.
or
b) Carry the CE conformity mark (mandatory in the EU
as of July 2013).
