2 Safety
2.1 Safety instructions
▶The user and persons in the vicinity must wear suitable protective goggles, a hard hat, protective gloves
and protective footwear while the device is in use.
▶Wear your personal protective equipment and always wear protective glasses. Depending on the type of
power tool you are using and its purpose, wearing safety equipment such as a dust mask, slip-resistant
safety shoes, a hard hat or hearing protection will reduce the risk of injury.

correctly. The use of a dust extraction system can reduce dust-related hazards.
▶Do not drill or chisel on hazardous materials (e.g. asbestos).
▶Before beginning the work, check the hazard classification of the dust that will be produced.
▶Make sure that the working area is well lit and well ventilated.
▶Contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases among
operators or bystanders.
▶Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when working.
▶Wear suitable work clothes.
▶Use the product only within its specified limits.
▶To help ensure safe and reliable operation, use only genuine Hilti spare parts and consumables.
