Safety

General power tool safety warnings

Image alternative WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
  • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
  • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
  • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
  • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
  • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
  • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
  • If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
  • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
  • Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
  • Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
  • Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
  • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
  • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
  • If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
  • Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
  • Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
  • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
  • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
  • Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
  • Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
  • Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
  • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
  • Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service
  • Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Diamond drill safety warnings

  • When performing drilling that requires the use of water, route the water away from the operator’s work area or use a liquid collection device. Such precautionary measures keep the operator’s work area dry and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
  • Operate power tool by insulated grasping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
  • Wear hearing protection when diamond drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
  • When the bit is jammed, stop applying downward pressure and turn off the tool. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of the bit jamming.
  • When restarting a diamond drill in the workpiece check that the bit rotates freely before starting. If the bit is jammed, it may not start, may overload the tool, or may cause the diamond drill to release from the workpiece.
  • When securing the drill stand with anchors and fasteners to the workpiece, ensure that the anchoring used is capable of holding and restraining the machine during use. If the workpiece is weak or porous, the anchor may pull out causing the drill stand to release from the workpiece.
  • When drilling through walls or ceilings, ensure to protect persons and the work area on the other side. The bit may extend through the hole or the core may fall out on the other side.
  • Do not use this tool for overhead drilling with water supply. Water entering the power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Additional safety instructions

Personal safety
  • During hand-held use, always hold the machine securely with both hands on the grips provided.
  • The machine and the diamond core bit are heavy. There is a risk of crushing parts of the body. Wear a hard hat, protective gloves and safety footwear.
  • Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
  • Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers during breaks between working.
  • Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the machine on only after bringing it into position at the workpiece. Touching rotating parts, especially rotating accessory tools, may lead to injury.
  • Always lead the supply cord, the extension cord and, if applicable, the suction hose away from the machine to the rear when working. This helps to avoid tripping over the cord or hose while working.
  • Do not allow drilling slurry to come into contact with the skin or eyes. Wear protective gloves and protective glasses.
  • Children are not permitted to play with the machine and must be instructed accordingly.
  • The machine is not intended for use by debilitated persons who have received no special training. Keep the machine out of reach of children.
  • The accessory tool may become hot during use or during sharpening. There is a risk of burning or cutting injuries. Wear protective gloves when touching or handling the accessory tool.
  • When the machine is mounted on the drill stand, lay it down safely on the floor or ground during breaks between use.
  • Never tamper with or modify the machine in any way.
Protection from dustDust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator 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 worked on only by specialists.
  • Use a dust removal system that is as effective as possible. To achieve a high level of dust collection, use a suitable vacuum cleaner of the type recommended by Hilti for wood dust and/or mineral dust and which is designed for use with this machine. Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recommended. Follow national requirements for the materials you want to work with.
Careful handling and use of electric tools and machines
  • Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to secure the workpiece. The workpiece is thus held more securely than by hand and both hands remain free to operate the machine.
  • Ensure that the accessory tools used have a mounting system that is compatible with the drilling machine and that they are secured in the chuck correctly.
  • Switch the machine off and unplug the supply cord in the event of an interruption in the electric supply in order to avoid inadvertent restarting when the power returns.
  • Operate the machine only when the cooling air slots are unobstructed.
Electrical safety
  • Before beginning the work, check the working area for concealed electrical cables, gas and water pipes, e.g. using a metal detector. External metal parts of the machine may become live, for example, when an electric cable is damaged accidentally. This presents a serious risk of electric shock.
  • Never operate the machine without the accompanying PRCD (machines without PRCD: Never operate the machine without an isolating transformer). Test the PRCD each time before use.
  • Check the machine’s supply cord at regular intervals and have it replaced by a qualified specialist if found to be damaged. If the machine’s supply cord is damaged it must be replaced with a specially-prepared and approved supply cord available from Hilti Customer Service. Check extension cords at regular intervals and replace them if found to be damaged. Do not touch the supply cord or extension cord if it is damaged while working. Disconnect the supply cord plug from the power outlet. Damaged supply cords or extension cords present a risk of electric shock.
  • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers, stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
  • Do not use a plug adapter.
Workplace
  • Ensure that the workplace is well ventilated. Exposure to dust at a poorly ventilated workplace may result in damage to the health.
  • Do not drill into hazardous materials (e.g. asbestos).
  • Approval must be obtained from the site engineer or architect prior to beginning drilling work. Drilling work on buildings and other structures may influence the static equilibrium of the structure, especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing components are cut through.
  • It is recommended that rubber gloves and non-skid shoes are worn when working outdoors.
  • Suitable protective glasses, a hard hat, ear protection, protective gloves and safety footwear must be worn while the machine is in use. Other persons in the vicinity must also wear personal protective equipment.

Drilling

WARNING
Risk of accident! Accidents with serious consequences may result if rotating parts come into contact with water hoses or electric cables.
  • Always make sure that rotating parts of the equipment do not come into contact with water hoses or electric cables.
WARNING
Risk of injury when the accessory tool stalls. In accordance with the applications for which it is designed, the machine produces a high torque. If the accessory tool suddenly stalls, the machine may suddenly move with great force.
  • Always use the side handle and hold the machine with both hands. Always be prepared for sudden stalling of the accessory tool.
WARNING
Risk of accident! When drilling penetrations through walls or floors/ceilings, the core or fragments of material may drop out and fall down on the other side.
  • Take the necessary safety precautions on the other side of the wall or below the floor/ceiling before drilling penetrations.
WARNING
Risk of injury due to flying fragments! Drilling may cause hazardous flying fragments. Flying fragments present a risk of injury to the body and eyes.
  • Wear eye protection, protective clothing and a hard hat.
WARNING
Risk of injury. The machine and the drilling operation generate noise. Exposure to noise can lead to hearing loss.
  • Wear ear protectors.

Hand-guided drilling

WARNING
Risk of electric shock! If the machine is used for hand-guided drilling in an upwards direction without the necessary safety precautions, water may enter the machine and present a risk of electric shock.
  • When carrying out hand-guided drilling in an upwards direction, always use a water collection system with a wet/dry industrial vacuum cleaner and the spray guard.
WARNING
Danger of electric shock! Use of the wrong sealing ring when drilling overhead may cause water to find its way into the interior of the diamond core drilling machine.
  • Always use a sealing ring of the same diameter as the core bit.
  1. Plug the drilling machine’s supply cord into a power outlet or, if using a vacuum cleaner, into the power outlet on the all-purpose vacuum cleaner (if the vacuum cleaner is equipped with a power outlet).
  2. If using a vacuum cleaner, plug the vacuum cleaner supply cord into the electric supply socket and set the switch on the vacuum cleaner to the AUTO or ON position (i.e. the I position).
  3. Switch on the ground fault circuit interrupter (PRCD) (see ).
    In AUTO mode, the vacuum cleaner starts automatically with a delay after switching on the drilling machine. When in AUTO mode the vacuum cleaner continues to run for a short time after the drilling machine is switched off, before switching itself off automatically. When set to ON or I , the vacuum cleaner requires to be switched on and off manually.
  4. Mark the center of the hole to be drilled with a cross. The lines of the cross should be longer than the diameter of the water collector.
    The water collector has four protruding marks that can be aligned with the cross.
Image alternative
  1. Press the drilling machine’s control switch and hold it in this position. Set the water regulation lever to the desired water flow rate and then release the control switch.
    The water supply (water on/off) is controlled automatically by the drilling machine’s control switch. The water flow rate can be preset by turning the water regulating lever before starting drilling or regulated while drilling is in progress (minimum water flow rate when the regulating lever is in the “closed” position is approx. 0.3 l/min).
  2. Position the water collector carefully at the position where the hole is to be drilled, without bringing the core bit into contact with the working surface.
  3. Bring the four marks on the water collector into alignment with the lines marking the center of the hole to be drilled.
  4. Check that the core bit is not in contact with the working surface and then press the control switch half way (this activates hole-starting speed).
  5. If you are drilling upwards, wait until the core bit has filled with water.
    • This will help to ensure that the core bit is cooled and avoid damage cause by dry drilling.
  6. Press the core bit gently against the working surface.
    • After switching on (pressing the control switch half way), the drilling machine runs at the slower hole-starting speed in order to reduce the tendency of the core bit to “wander” when starting the hole.
  7. Press the control switch fully as soon as the core bit begins to bite and drill smoothly.
    • The core bit can rotate at maximum speed as soon as the control switched is pressed fully.
    Adjust the pressure applied so that the drilling machine continues to run at full speed. Optimum drilling performance will then be achieved (the drilling performance indicator lights green). Application of higher pressure will not increase the rate of drilling progress (the drilling performance indicator lights red).
    Guide the core bit carefully, keeping it straight in the hole. Tilting the core bit in the hole may result in reduced drilling performance.
    Always take care to ensure that the water flow rate is set correctly. Check the water flow by keeping an eye on the flow rate indicator.

Drilling using the drill stand

WARNING
Water running out presents a risk of electric shock! The spray guard cannot be used when the machine is mounted on the drill stand. The machine is therefore not protected against entry of water when mounted on the drill stand.
  • Never drill in an upwards direction with the machine mounted on the drill stand!
WARNING
Risk of accident! When drilling penetrations through walls or floors/ceilings, the core or fragments of material may drop out and fall down on the other side.
  • Take the necessary safety precautions on the other side of the wall or below the floor/ceiling before drilling penetrations.
WARNING
Risk of injury Hazard presented by a falling diamond core drilling machine.
  • When drilling horizontally, the drill stand must be secured additionally by a chain.
  1. If you are using a wet/dry industrial vacuum cleaner, connect the suction system () and follow steps 1 to 3 in the section on hand-guided drilling ().
  2. Plug the supply cord into the power outlet and switch on the ground fault circuit interrupter (PRCD) (see section on connecting electric power and water ).
  3. Release the carriage locking mechanism.
  4. Use the hand wheel to move the carriage down until the water collector is in contact with the working surface.
  5. Press the machine’s control switch and hold it in this position. Set the water regulation lever to the desired water flow rate and then release the control switch.
    The water supply (water on/off) is controlled automatically by the machine’s control switch. The water flow rate can be preset by turning the water regulating lever before starting drilling or regulated while drilling is in progress (minimum water flow rate when the regulating lever is in the “closed” position is approx. 0.3 l/min).
  6. Switch the machine on in sustained operating mode by pressing the control switch fully and then pressing the switch lockbutton.
  7. Turn the hand wheel until the diamond core bit is in contact with the working surface.
  8. When beginning drilling, apply only light pressure until the core bit has centered itself and then increase the pressure.
  9. Increase the pressure against the working surface as soon as you feel that the core bit has centered itself and is rotating smoothly.
  10. Regulate the contact pressure while observing the drilling performance indicator.
    Adjust the pressure applied so that the machine continues to run at full speed. Optimum drilling performance will then be achieved (the drilling performance indicator lights green). Higher contact pressure will not increase the drilling performance (the drilling performance indicator lights red).
    Keep an eye on the water flow rate while drilling is in progress. Check the water flow rate indicator.

Drilling with a 600 mm core bit

  1. Start the hole by predrilling with a 300 mm core bit.
WARNING
Risk of injury. Drilling with the 600 mm core bit without predrilling may cause loss of control of the machine resulting in damage and injury.
  • Always predrill (use a shorter core bit to start the hole). Before continuing drilling, ensure that the 600 mm core bit is inserted all the way to the base of the predrilled starting hole.
  1. After changing the core bit, keep the machine switched off and guide the 600 mm core bit into the predrilled hole, all the way to the base of the hole.
  2. Continue drilling.

Switching the machine off

  1. Switch the machine off when the desired drilling depth is reached or when the through-hole has been completed. If you are using the switch lock, release the lock by pressing the on/off switch.
WARNING
Risk of injury! The core, or pieces of it, may be hurled out if the water collector is lifted away from the working surface while the core bit is still rotating. This presents a risk of injury.
  • Lift the water collector away from the working surface only after the core bit has stopped rotating.
  1. Withdraw the core bit from the hole as the machine slows down, but before it stops.
    • The water supply (water on/off) is controlled automatically by the machine’s on/off switch.
