Safety precautions
for double-insulated tools
Read all instructions
1. Keep Work Area Clean. Cluttered areas and benches
invite injuries.
2. Consider Work Area Environment. Don’t expose power
tools to rain. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet loca-
tions. Keep work area well lit. Do not use tool in presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
3. Guard Against Electric Shock. Prevent body contact
with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators,
ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
4. Keep Children Away. Do not let visitors contact tool or
extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from work
area.
5. Store Idle Tools. When not in use, tools should be stored
in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of chil-
dren.
6. Don’t Force Tool. It will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was intended.
7. Use Right Tool. Don’t force small tool or attachment to
do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose
not intended – for example – d’ont use circular saw for cut-
ting tree limbs or logs.
8. Dress Properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and
non-skid footwear are recommended when working out-
doors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
9. Use Safety Glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cut-
ting operation is dusty.
10. Don’t Abuse Cord. Never carry tool by cord or yank it
to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and
sharp edges.
11. Secure Work. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s
safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to oper-
ate tool.
12. Don’t Overreach / Maintain Control. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
13. Maintain Tools With Care. Keep tools sharp and clean
for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords
periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized
service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and
replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from
oil and grease.
14. Disconnect Tools. When not in use, before servicing
and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cut-
ters.
15. Remove Adjusting Keys and Wrenches. Form habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from tool before turning it on.
16. Avoid Unintentional Starting. Don’t carry tool with fin-
ger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
16A. Extension Cords. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following
table shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavler
the cord.

17. Outdoor Use Extension Cords. When tool is used out-
doors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors
and so marked.
18. Stay Alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.
19. Check Damaged Parts. Before further use of the tool, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and per-
form its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service
center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.
20. Only use accessories and attachments which are given
in the operating instructions or in the respective catalogue.
The use of accessories or insert tools or attachments other
than those specified in the operating instructions can result
in personal injury to you.
21. Only have repairs carried out by recognized electrical
specialists. This electric tool/machine complies with respec-
tive safety regulations. Repairs may only be carried out by
an electrical specialist otherwise an accident hazard for the
operator can exist.
22. Wear ear protectors when using for extended periods.
23. Always use any supplied side handle, and keep it tightly
secured; use both hands during operation. Keep proper
footing and balance and don’t overreach. Firm control of the
tool is necessary should the tool bind.
24. Hold Tool by Handle(s) Provided. Do not touch uninsu-
lated parts of tool when drilling. Exposed metal surfaces
may be made live if the tool drills into electrical wiring.
25. Replacement Parts. When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
26. Polarized Plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Please read and take note of these precautions before you use the
tool/machine and keep these safety precautions in a safe place!

Please note before
start-up:
1. The electric supply must be the same as
given on the machine nameplate.
2. This machine is double insulated and
need not be grounded (earthed).
3. Do not exert undue pressure on the ma-
chine. This will not increase its performance.
Just position the bit and guide it into the
hole.
Lubrication of chuck: The chuck is not in-
corporated in the lubricating system of
the machine. The drill bit connection end,
therefore, must be cleaned regularly and
sprayed sparingly with Hilti lubricant.
Start-up time at low temperatures: Shorten
it by jolting the drill bit once against the base
material during the start-up.
Servicing:
Electric tools comply with respective
safety regulations. Servicing must, there-
fore, be carried out only by qualified elec-
trical specialists. For your safety, only
use original Hilti repair parts.
Operating:
Fig. 1: Insertion of drill bit
Turn chuck to the left (symbol () ). Insert
drill bit in any position until resistance is felt.
Then turn it until it moves in farther. Turn
chuck to right and lock drill bit in place (sym-
bol () ).
Fig. 2: Rotary hammer drilling
To hammer drill into concrete, masonry and
stone, shift setting lever to indicated rotary
hammer drilling position (symbol ).
Fig. 3: Rotary drilling
Shift setting sleeve to indicated rotary drilling
position (symbol ). Only the
rotary action is transmitted to the drill bit
in this position.
Fig. 4: Changing the chuck
Pull forward sleeve and completely remove
chuck. When attaching chuck pull for-
ward sleeve and hold it there. Press chuck
onto guide tube as far as it will go. Release
sleeve. Turn chuck until steel balls snap into
place.
Note:
On attaching a keyless chuck, the hammer-
ing action is automatically cut out i. e. rotary
drilling only is obtained.
Fig. 5: Side handle/depth gauge
Unscrew side handle to release depth gauge.
Adjust depth gauge and retighten.
Double insulation
The Hilti TE15 Hammer Drill is doublein-
sulated for extra operator protection. The
tool is equipped with a two-wire cord and
