tool’s supply cord is damaged it must be re-
placed with a specially-prepared supply cord
available from Hilti Customer Service. Check
extension cords at regular intervals and replace
them if found to be damaged. Do not touch the
supply cord or extension cord if it is damaged
while working. Disconnect the supply cord plug
from the power outlet. Damaged supply cords or
extension cords present a risk of electric shock.
c) Dirty or dusty power tools which have been
used frequently for work on conductive mater-
ials should be checked at regular intervals at
a Hilti Service Center. Under unfavorable cir-
cumstances, dampness or dust adhering to the
surface of the power tool, especially dust from
conductive materials, may present a risk of elec-
tric shock.
d) When working outdoors with an electric tool
check to ensure that the tool is connected to the
electric supply by way of a ground fault circuit
interrupter (RCD) with a rating of max. 30 mA
(tripping current). Use of a ground fault circuit
interrupter reduces the risk of electric shock.
e) Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (RCD re-
sidual current device) with a maximum tripping
current of 30 mA is recommended.
5.2.4 Work area safety
a) Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
b) Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated.
Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace
may result in damage to the health.
c) There is a risk of injury when the drill bit breaks
through the object in which the hole is being
drilled. Implement the appropriate safety meas-
ures at the rear of the object. Parts breaking
away could fall out and / or fall down and injure
other persons.
5.2.5 Personal protective equipment
The user and any other persons in the vicinity must
wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat, ear pro-
tection, protective gloves and breathing protection
while the tool is in use.
