Transport; Disposal - Hilti PR 3 Bedienungsanleitung

4. Check the temperature limit values when storing
your equipment, especially in winter and summer,
if you are keeping your equipment stored inside a
vehicle (‑25 °C to +60 °C (77°F to 140°F)).
8.2 Care of the Li‑ion battery
Do not allow moisture to enter the device.
In order to achieve maximum battery life, stop drawing
en
power from the battery as soon as a significant drop in
the performance of the device is noticed.
NOTE
If use of the tool continues, further battery discharge will
be stopped automatically before the battery cells suffer
damage. The tool switches itself off.
Charge the batteries with the Hilti chargers approved for
use with Li-ion batteries.
NOTE
- A conditioning charge (as is required with NiCd batter-
ies) is not necessary.
- Interruption of the charging procedure has no negative
effect on battery life.
- Charging can be started at any time with no negative
effect on battery life. There is no memory effect (as
with NiCd batteries).
- For best results, batteries should be stored fully
charged in a cool, dry place. Storing the battery in
places subject to high ambient temperatures (e.g. at
a window) has an adverse effect on battery life and
increases the rate of self-discharge.
- If the battery no longer reaches full charge, it may
have lost capacity due to aging or overstressing. It
is possible to continue working with a battery in this
condition but it should be replaced in good time.

9 Disposal

WARNING
Improper disposal of the equipment may have serious consequences:
The burning of plastic components generates toxic fumes which may present a health hazard.
Batteries may explode if damaged or exposed to very high temperatures, causing poisoning, burns, acid burns or
environmental pollution.
Careless disposal may permit unauthorized and improper use of the equipment. This may result in serious personal
injury, injury to third parties and pollution of the environment.
Most of the materials from which Hilti tools or appliances are manufactured can be recycled. The materials must
be correctly separated before they can be recycled. In many countries, Hilti has already made arrangements for
taking back old tools and appliances for recycling. Ask Hilti customer service or your Hilti representative for further
information.

8.3 Storage
Unpack the tool if it has become wet. Clean and dry the
tool, its transport container and any accessories. Repack
the equipment only once it is completely dry.
Check the accuracy of the equipment before it is used
after a long period of storage or transportation.

8.4 Transport

Use the Hilti toolbox or packaging of equivalent quality
for transporting or shipping your equipment.
CAUTION
Always remove the battery from the tool before ship-
ping.
8.5 Hilti Measuring Systems Service
Hilti Measuring Systems Service checks the tool and, if
deviations from the specified accuracy are found, recal-
ibrates the tool and checks it again to ensure conformity
with specifications. The service certificate provides writ-
ten confirmation of conformity with specifications at the
time of the test.
The following is recommended:
1. The tool should be checked at suitable intervals,
depending on the frequency of normal use.
2. The tool should be checked at least once a year by
a Hilti Measuring Systems Service Center.
3. The tool should be checked by a Hilti Measuring
Systems Service Center if it has been abused in any
way.
4. The tool should be checked by a Hilti Measuring
Systems Service Center before being used for par-
ticularly important work.
Having the tool checked by a Hilti Measuring Sys-
tems Service Center does not relieve the user of
his/her obligation to check the tool before and dur-
ing use.
