Why does my Hilti Cutter power tool doesn’t start or switches itself off?
- DDenise BerryJul 27, 2025
If your Hilti Cutter doesn't start or switches off, first, ensure there's no interruption in the electric supply by testing another appliance. If the portable residual current device (PRCD) has tripped due to water, dry the tool in a warm place and then check the PRCD. A defective supply cord or plug should be inspected and replaced by a specialist. For an overloaded tool, release and then press the on/off switch again, and select a suitable tool for the task. If overheating protection is active, let the tool cool and clean the air vents. If the restart interlock is active, switch the tool off and on again. If none of these steps work, the on/off switch may be defective, in which case you should have the power tool repaired by Hilti Service.
