▶ Take breaks between working and do physical exercises to improve the
blood circulation in your fingers. Exposure to vibration during long periods
of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous system in
the fingers, hands and wrists.
Electrical safety
▶ Before starting work, check the working area for concealed electric cables
or gas and water pipes. If you damage an electric cable accidentally,
external metal parts of the power tool may become live and present a risk
of electric shock.
Careful handling and use of power tools
▶ Switch the power tool off immediately if the accessory tool jams. The
power tool may go off course and veer to the side.
▶ Wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before setting it
down.
2.3 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, direct sunlight or fire.
▶ Do not take apart, squash or incinerate batteries and do not subject them
to temperatures over 80 °C.
▶ Do not attempt to charge or continue to use damaged batteries.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch, 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 left to cool down.
Contact Hilti Service after the battery has cooled down.
