Additional Safety Instructions; Intended Use; Items Supplied - Hilti AG 230-20D Original Bedienungsanleitung

▶ Do not use worn-down, originally larger-diameter grinding discs from larger power tools. Grinding
discs intended for a larger power tool are not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and can
break.

2.3 Additional safety instructions

Personal safety
▶ Only use the product if it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the tool in any way.
▶ Avoid touching rotating parts – risk of injury!
▶ Wear protective gloves also when changing the accessory tool. Touching the accessory tool presents a
risk of injury (cuts or burns).
▶ Before starting work, check the hazard class of the dust that will be produced when working. Use
an industrial vacuum cleaner with an officially approved protection class in compliance with the locally
applicable dust protection regulations. Dust from materials such as lead-based paint, certain types of
wood and concrete/masonry/stone containing quartz, minerals or metal may be harmful to health.
▶ Make sure that the workplace is well ventilated and, where necessary, wear a respirator appropriate for
the type of dust generated. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or
respiratory or other diseases among operators 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 handled only by specialists.
▶ Take breaks between working and do physical exercises to improve the blood circulation in your fingers.
Exposure to vibration during long periods of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous
system in the fingers, hands and wrists.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric cables or gas and water pipes.
External metal parts of the power tool may give you an electric shock if you damage an electric cable
accidentally.
Using and handling power tools with care
▶ Do not use cutting discs for grinding.
▶ Tighten the accessory tool and flange securely. If the accessory tool and flange are not tightened
securely, the accessory tool may work loose from the spindle due to the braking effect of the motor after
switching off.
▶ Comply with the manufacturer's instructions for handling and storing grinding discs.
