Electrical safety
▶ Do not expose the product to rain or moisture. Water entering the product will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Personal safety
▶ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a scanning tool. Do
not use a scanning tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating the scanning tool can result in serious personal injury.
▶ Adopt the correct posture when working. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. This
will allow you to control the scanning tool better, even in unexpected situations.
▶ Wear your personal protective equipment and always wear protective glasses. Depending on the
type of scanning 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.
▶ Avoid starting the tool accidentally. Make sure that the scanning tool is switched off before
connecting it to the battery and before picking it up or carrying it. Carrying scanning tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in scanning tools that are already switched on can cause accidents.
Using and handling the scanning tool
▶ Do not use a scanning tool if it has a faulty on/off switch. A scanning tool that can no longer be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be repaired.
▶ Store scanning tools out of reach of children when not in use. Do not allow persons who are not familiar
with the product or these instructions to operate it. Scanning tools are dangerous in the hands of
inexperienced persons.
▶ Scanning tools need care and attention. Check that moving parts operate satisfactorily and do not
jam, and make sure that no parts are broken or damaged in such a way that the scanning tool might no
longer function correctly. Have damaged parts repaired before using the scanning tool. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained scanning tools.
Using and handling the cordless power tool
▶ Use only the specified batteries in the scanning tools. Use of other batteries can result in injury and a
risk of fire.
▶ Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for a certain
type of battery may present a risk of fire when used with other types of battery.
▶ When the battery is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects such as paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that could cause bridging between the terminals.
A short circuit between the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
▶ Liquid may leak from the battery if used incorrectly. Avoid contact with this liquid. Liquid leaking
from the battery may cause skin irritation or burns. If contact accidentally occurs, rinse with water. Seek
medical attention if the liquid comes into contact with the eyes.
2.2 Battery use and care
▶ Observe the special regulations and instructions applicable to the transport, storage and use of Li-ion
batteries.
▶ Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, direct sunlight or fire.
▶ Do not disassemble, crush or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over 80 °C.
▶ Do not use or charge batteries that have suffered mechanical impact, have been dropped from a height
or show signs of damage. In this case, always contact your Hilti Service.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch it may be defective. In this case, place the product in a non-flammable
location, well away from flammable materials, where it can be kept under observation and allowed to
cool down. In this case, always contact your Hilti Service.
2.3 Additional safety instructions, detectors
▶ This product complies with all the requirements of the applicable directives, but Hilti cannot entirely rule
out the possibility of interference caused by powerful magnetic or electromagnetic fields affecting it,
possibly leading to incorrect measurements. Check accuracy by taking measurements by other means
when working under such conditions, or if you are unsure.
▶ Before using the scanning tool, read the operating instructions stored in its memory.
▶ Use the scanning tool only when it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the scanning tool in any way.
▶ Do not operate the scanning tool in proximity to pregnant women or users of cardiac pacemakers or in
the vicinity of medical apparatus.
