8 Care and maintenance

CAUTION
Before beginning cleaning, remove the battery from the power tool in
order to prevent unintentional starting.
8.1 Care of insert tools
Clean off dirt and dust deposits adhering to the insert tools and protect
them from corrosion by wiping the insert tools from time to time with an
oil-soaked rag.
8.2 Care of the power tool
CAUTION
Keep the power tool, especially its grip surfaces, clean and free from
oil and grease. Do not use cleaning agents which contain silicone.
The outer casing of the power tool is made from impact-resistant plastic.
Sections of the grip are made from a synthetic rubber material.
Never operate the power tool when the ventilation slots are blocked. Clean
the ventilation slots carefully using a dry brush. Do not permit foreign
objects to enter the interior of the power tool. Clean the outside of the
power tool at regular intervals with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use a spray,
steam pressure cleaning equipment or running water for cleaning. This may
negatively affect the electrical safety of the power tool.
8.3 Maintenance
WARNING
Repairs to the electrical section of the power tool may be carried out
only by trained electrical specialists.
Check all external parts of the power tool for damage at regular intervals
and check that all controls operate faultlessly. Do not operate the power
tool if parts are damaged or when the controls do not function faultlessly. If
necessary, the power tool should be repaired by Hilti Service.
8.4 Care of the Li-ion battery
Avoid entrance of moisture.
Charge the battery fully before using it for the first time.
In order to achieve maximum battery life, stop discharging the battery as
soon as a significant drop in performance is noticed.
NOTE
If use of the power tool continues, further battery discharge will be stopped
automatically before the battery cells suffer damage.
