2 Safety
2.1 General power tool safety warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
▶Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
▶Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
▶Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical safety
▶Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
▶Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
▶Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
Printed: 06.07.2017 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5283534 / 000 / 05

English 3
▶Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
▶When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
▶If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
▶Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
▶Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
▶Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off‐position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
▶Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
▶Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
▶Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
▶If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
▶Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
▶Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
▶Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
▶Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
▶Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
▶Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
▶Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
▶Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2.2 Drill safety warnings
▶Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
▶Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
2.3 Additional safety instructions
Personal safety
▶During hand-held use, always hold the machine securely with both hands on the grips provided.
▶The machine and the diamond core bit are heavy. There is a risk of crushing parts of the body. Wear
a hard hat, protective gloves and safety footwear.
Printed: 06.07.2017 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5283534 / 000 / 05

4 English
▶Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
▶Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers
during breaks between working.
▶Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the machine on only after bringing it into position at the
workpiece. Touching rotating parts, especially rotating accessory tools, may lead to injury.
▶Always lead the supply cord, the extension cord and, if applicable, the suction hose away from the
machine to the rear when working. This helps to avoid tripping over the cord or hose while working.
▶Do not allow drilling slurry to come into contact with the skin or eyes. Wear protective gloves and
protective glasses.
▶Children are not permitted to play with the machine and must be instructed accordingly.
▶The machine is not intended for use by debilitated persons who have received no special training.

cutting injuries. Wear protective gloves when touching or handling the accessory tool.
▶When the machine is mounted on the drill stand, lay it down safely on the floor or ground during
breaks between use.
▶Never tamper with or modify the machine in any way.
Protection from dust
Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful.
Contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator
or bystanders. Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust especially
in conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos may be worked on only by specialists.
▶Use a dust removal system that is as effective as possible. To achieve a high level of dust
collection, use a suitable vacuum cleaner of the type recommended by Hilti for wood dust and/or
mineral dust and which is designed for use with this machine. Ensure that the workplace is well
ventilated. The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recommended. Follow national requirements
for the materials you want to work with.
Careful handling and use of electric tools and machines
▶Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thus held
more securely than by hand and both hands remain free to operate the machine.
▶Ensure that the accessory tools used have a mounting system that is compatible with the drilling
machine and that they are secured in the chuck correctly.
▶Switch the machine off and unplug the supply cord in the event of an interruption in the electric
supply in order to avoid inadvertent restarting when the power returns.
▶Operate the machine only when the cooling air slots are unobstructed.
Electrical safety
▶Before beginning the work, check the working area for concealed electrical cables, gas and water
pipes, e.g. using a metal detector. External metal parts of the machine may become live, for example,
when an electric cable is damaged accidentally. This presents a serious risk of electric shock.
▶Never operate the machine without the accompanying PRCD (machines without PRCD: Never
operate the machine without an isolating transformer). Test the PRCD each time before use.
▶Check the machine’s supply cord at regular intervals and have it replaced by a qualified specialist
if found to be damaged. If the machine’s supply cord is damaged it must be replaced with
a specially-prepared and approved 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.
▶Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers, stoves
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
▶Do not use a plug adapter.
Workplace
▶Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may
result in damage to the health.
▶Do not drill into hazardous materials (e.g. asbestos).
▶Approval must be obtained from the site engineer or architect prior to beginning drilling work.
Drilling work on buildings and other structures may influence the static equilibrium of the structure,
especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut through.
▶It is recommended that rubber gloves and non-skid shoes are worn when working outdoors.
Printed: 06.07.2017 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5283534 / 000 / 05
