2 Safety

2.1 Safety precautions

Working safely with the setting tool

▶Pressing the nosepiece of the setting tool against a part of the body may lead to serious injury due to

inadvertent actuation and release of a fastener. Never press the nosepiece of the tool against your

hand or any other part of the body.

▶When inserting/loading application-specific fasteners (e.g. washers, clips or clamps, etc.) in/on the

fastener guide there is a risk of serious injury due to inadvertent actuation of the tool resulting in

discharge of a fastener. When inserting/loading an application-specific type of fastener, never press

a hand or any other part of the body against the fastener guide.

▶Never point the setting tool towards yourself or any other person.

▶Keep your arms flexed when operating the tool (do not straighten the arms).

▶Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the setting tool. Do

not use the setting tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating the setting tool may result in serious personal injury.

▶When pulling back the nail pusher, always take care to ensure that it engages.

▶When disengaging the nail pusher, do not release it and allow it to jump forward. Guide it forward

slowly. There is a risk of pinching the fingers.

▶Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too hard, such as welded steel or cast steel.

Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions, incorrectly driven fasteners

or breakage of fasteners.

▶Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too soft, such as wood or drywall/gypsum

board. Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions and fasteners being

driven incorrectly or driven right through the material.

▶Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too brittle, such as glass or tiles. Attempting

to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions, fasteners being driven incorrectly and

may cause the material to shatter.

▶Before driving fasteners, check that there is no risk of injuring persons or of damaging objects present

behind or below the working surface.

Printed: 06.11.2018 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5261692 / 000 / 01

▶Only activate the trigger when the setting tool is pressed against the base material in such a way that the

fastener guide is plunged into the setting tool as far as it will go.

▶Always wear gloves if you have to carry out maintenance work on the setting tool while it is still

hot.

▶If fasteners are driven at a high rate or if the tool used for a long period, surfaces of the tool beyond the

grip areas may get hot. Wear protective gloves to avoid burning injuries.

▶If the setting tool overheats, remove the gas can and allow the tool to cool down. Do not exceed the

specified maximum fastener driving rate.

▶Driving fasteners may cause flying fragments or result in parts of the nail strip material being forcibly

ejected from the tool. Flying fragments present a risk of injury to the body and eyes. Wear a suitable

form of eye protection, ear protectors and a hard hat. Depending on the application and type of tool

in use, wearing personal protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety footwear, hard hat

or suitable eye protection and ear protection reduces the risk of injury. Other persons in the vicinity must

also wear eye protection and a hard hat.

▶Wear suitable ear protection (see noise information in the technical data section). The fastener is driven

by the energy released on ignition of a gas-air mixture. The resulting noise exposure may cause damage

to the hearing. Other persons in the vicinity should also wear suitable ear protection.

▶When driving a fastener, always hold the setting tool securely and at right angles to the supporting

material. This helps to avoid deflection of the fastener by the supporting material.

▶Never drive a second fastener at the same location. This may lead to breakage or jamming of fasteners.

▶Never attempt to redrive a previously driven stud or nail. Re-use of a fastener may cause it to break,

thereby presenting a risk of injury.

▶Alway remove the gas can and ( → page 8) empty the magazine ( → page 8) before changing the magazine,

before cleaning, servicing or maintenance work on the tool, before storage or transport and before leaving

the setting tool unattended.

▶After use, lay the tool flat on the floor. A tool that is mounted on a pole tool extension and left leaning

against a wall presents a risk of injury as it may fall over.

▶When lowering (tilting) the pole tool extension, do not hold the pole only at its lower end. The considerable

leverage exerted may cause you to lose control over the tilting movement of the pole and tool. This may

result in injury and damage to the equipment or other property.

▶To ensure that the setting tool functions faultlessly and as intended, always check the tool and accessories

for possible damage before use. Check that moving parts function faultlessly, without sticking, and that

no parts are damaged. In order to ensure faultless operation of the tool, all parts must be fitted correctly

and must meet the necessary requirements. Damaged protective devices or other parts must be properly

repaired or replaced by Hilti Service unless otherwise stated in the operating instructions.

▶Have the setting tool repaired only by trained and qualified specialists using genuine Hilti spare parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the setting tool is maintained.

▶Tampering with or modification of the setting tool is not permissible.

▶Do not use the setting tool where there is a risk of fire or explosion.

▶Take influences of the surrounding area into account. Do not expose the setting tool to rain or snow and

do not use it in damp or wet conditions.

▶Use the setting tool only in well-ventilated working areas.

▶Select the correct combination of fastener guide and fastener. The wrong combination may result in

damage to the tool and in reduced fastening quality.

▶Always observe the application guidelines .

Hazards presented by electricity

▶Before beginning work, check the working area (e.g. using a metal detector) to ensure that no concealed

electric cables or gas and water pipes are present.

▶Hold the setting tool only by the insulated grip when working in areas where fasteners may be driven

inadvertently into concealed electric cables. Contact with a live electric cable may cause metal parts of

the tool also to become live, leading to a risk of electric shock.

Instructions for handling the propellant gas

▶Observe the instructions printed on the gas can and in the accompanying information.

▶Escaping gas is harmful to the lungs, skin and eyes. Keep your face and eyes away from the gas can

compartment for up to about 10 seconds after removing the gas can.

▶Do not operate the gas can valve manually.

▶If a person has inhaled gas, take the person into the open air or into a well-ventilated area and place the

person in a comfortable position. Consult a doctor if necessary.

Printed: 06.11.2018 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5261692 / 000 / 01

4 English

▶Call a doctor if the person is unconscious. Bring the person into a well-ventilated area and place the

person in the stable recovery position (i.e. lying on the side). If the person is not breathing, administer

artificial respiration and, if necessary, supply oxygen.

▶After eye contact with gas, rinse the open eyes thoroughly under running water for several minutes.

▶After skin contact with gas, wash the contact area carefully with soap and warm water. Subsequently

apply a skin cream.

General instructions concerning personal safety

▶Take care to adopt an ergonomic body position. Work from a safe stance and take care to stay in balance

at all times. This will allow you to control the setting tool better, even in unexpected situations.

▶Keep other people away from the working area, especially children.

2 Sécurité

2.1 Consignes de sécurité

Travail en toute sécurité avec le cloueur

▶Si le cloueur est appuyé contre une partie du corps, un déclenchement d'un tir par mégarde peut

entraîner de graves blessures. Ne jamais appuyer le cloueur contre la main ou contre toute autre

partie du corps.

▶Lors du montage des fixations spécifiques aux applications sur le canon (p. ex. rondelles, colliers de

fixation, attaches, etc.), un déclenchement d'un tir par mégarde peut entraîner de graves blessures. Ne

jamais appuyer une main ou une partie du corps contre le canon lors du montage des fixations

spécifiques aux applications sur le canon.

▶Ne jamais diriger le cloueur vers soi ou vers une autre personne.

▶Lors du maniement du cloueur, garder les bras fléchis (ne pas tendre les bras).

▶Restez vigilant, surveillez ce que vous faites. Faites preuve de bon sens en utilisant le cloueur.

N'utilisez pas le cloueur si vous êtes fatigué ou après avoir consommé de l'alcool, des drogues ou

avoir pris des médicaments. Un moment d'inattention lors de l'utilisation du cloueur peut entraîner de

graves blessures.

▶Lors du retrait du poussoir à clous, toujours veiller à ce qu'il s'encliquette.

▶Lors du déblocage de l'enclenchement de sécurité, guider le poussoir à clous vers l'avant afin

d'éviter qu'il ne se dégage trop rapidement. L'utilisateur risque de se coincer les doigts.

▶Ne pas implanter d'éléments de fixation dans un matériau support trop dur, comme de l'acier soudé

ou de l'acier coulé. Une implantation dans ces matériaux peut entraîner des ratés de tir ou rendre les

éléments de fixation cassants.

▶Ne pas implanter d'éléments de fixation dans un matériau support trop mou, comme du bois ou du

placoplâtre. Une implantation dans ces matériaux peut entraîner des ratés de tir et des perforations du

matériau support.

▶Ne pas implanter d'éléments de fixation dans un matériau support trop fragile, comme du verre ou du

carrelage. Une implantation dans ces matériaux peut entraîner des ratés de tir et une projection d'éclats

du matériau support.

Printed: 06.11.2018 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5261692 / 000 / 01

16 Français

▶Avant d'implanter, vérifier qu'il n'y ait aucun risque de blesser une personne ou d'endommager des

objets à l'arrière du matériau support.

▶Actionner la détente uniquement lorsque le cloueur est complètement appuyé contre le matériau support,

de telle sorte que le canon rentre jusqu'en butée dans le cloueur.

▶Porter impérativement des gants de protection lorsque des opérations d'entretien doivent être

effectuées sur un cloueur chaud.

▶En cas de cadences de tir élevées pendant une période prolongée, les surfaces hors de la partie

préhensible risquent de devenir brûlantes. Porter des gants de protection contre les brûlures.

▶En cas de surchauffe du cloueur, retirer la cartouche de gaz et laisser le cloueur refroidir. Ne pas

dépasser la cadence de tir maximale.

▶Pendant le tir, le matériau peut s'écailler ou des fragments du matériau de bande-chargeur peuvent

être projetés. Les éclats de matière peuvent entraîner des blessures corporelles et aux yeux. Utiliser

des lunettes de protection, un casque antibruit et un casque de protection appropriés. Le fait

de porter des équipements de protection personnels tels que masque anti-poussières, chaussures de

sécurité antidérapantes, casque de protection ou des lunettes de protection et une protection acoustique

appropriées, suivant le travail à effectuer, réduit le risque de blessures. Les autres personnes se trouvant

à proximité doivent également porter des lunettes de protection et un casque de protection.

▶Porter un casque antibruit approprié (voir les données d'émissions acoustiques dans les caractéristiques

techniques). L'implantation des éléments de fixation est déclenchée par la mise à feu d'un mélange

air-gaz. Les nuisances sonores ainsi générées peuvent entraîner une perte d'acuité auditive. Même les

personnes environnantes doivent porter un casque antibruit approprié.

▶Toujours maintenir le cloueur fermement et perpendiculairement au matériau support pour déclencher

un tir. Cela contribue à ce que l'élément de fixation ne soit pas dévié du matériau support.

▶Ne jamais implanter un deuxième élément de fixation au même endroit. Cela risque de rendre les

éléments de fixation cassants et de les coincer.

▶Ne jamais implanter un goujon ou un clou une deuxième fois. En cas de réutilisation, il y a risque de

casse des éléments de fixation ou de blessures.

▶Toujours retirer la cartouche de gaz ( → Page 21) et vider le chargeur ( → Page 21) avant de remplacer le

chargeur, de procéder aux travaux de nettoyage, de service et d'entretien, ainsi qu'avant le stockage et

le transport, ou si le cloueur est laissé sans surveillance.

▶Après utilisation, poser l'appareil à plat sur le sol. Un appareil installé au bout d'un prolongateur ou un

appareil posé contre un mur peut provoquer des blessures en tombant.

▶Lors de l'abaissement du cloueur, ne pas tenir par l'extrémité arrière l'appareil installé au bout d'un

prolongateur. Compte tenu de l'importante force de levier, il y a risque de perdre le contrôle du fait des

mouvements pivotants du cloueur. Ceci risque de provoquer des blessures ou des dommages matériels.

▶Vérifier que le cloueur et les accessoires ne sont pas endommagés, pour assurer un fonctionnement

sans défaillances et conforme à sa destination. Vérifier que toutes les pièces mobiles fonctionnent

parfaitement et ne coincent pas, et que les pièces ne sont pas abîmées. Toutes les pièces doivent être

montées correctement et remplir toutes les conditions propres à garantir le parfait fonctionnement du

cloueur. Les dispositifs de sécurité et les pièces endommagés doivent être réparés ou remplacés de

manière professionnelle par le S.A.V. Hilti , sauf indication contraire dans le mode d'emploi.

▶Ne faire réparer le cloueur que par un personnel qualifié et seulement avec des pièces de rechange

d'origine. Ceci permet d'assurer la sécurité du cloueur.

▶Toute manipulation ou modification du cloueur est interdite.

▶Ne pas utiliser le cloueur dans des endroits présentant un danger d'incendie ou d'explosion.

▶Prêter attention aux influences de l'environnement. Protéger le cloueur des intempéries, et ne pas

l'utiliser dans un environnement humide ou mouillé.

▶Utiliser le cloueur uniquement dans des emplacements bien aérés.

▶Utiliser les combinaisons de canon et d'éléments de fixation appropriées. Une combinaison erronée

risque d'endommager le cloueur ou de nuire à la qualité de la fixation.

▶Toujours respecter les consignes d'utilisation.

Risques liés au courant électrique

▶Avant d'entamer les travaux, contrôler l'espace de travail, p. ex. à l'aide d'un détecteur de métaux, afin

de vérifier l'absence de câbles ou gaines électriques, conduites de gaz ou d'eau cachés.

▶Tenir le cloueur uniquement par la poignée isolée s'il y a un risque lors des travaux de toucher des câbles

électriques cachés. Le contact avec un câble sous tension risque de mettre les parties métalliques de

l'appareil sous tension et de provoquer une décharge électrique.

Consignes quant au maniement du gaz utilisé

▶Respecter les consignes d'utilisation figurant sur la cartouche de gaz et les informations descriptives qui

l'accompagnent.
