dust mask. Comply with national regulations applicable to the materials you will be
working with.
▶ Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear jewelry or loose clothing that could be
snagged by moving parts. If your hair is long, wear a hair net.
▶ Avoid skin contact with drilling and sawing slurry.
▶ Keep children clear. Keep everyone clear of your work zone.
▶ Do not allow other persons to touch the equipment or the extension cord.
▶ Always run cables and hoses flat on the floor or ground away from the machine to
prevent trip hazards.
▶ Keep cables and hoses away from rotating parts.
▶ Ensure that the cooling water used is drained or extracted in a suitably controlled
manner. Cooling water allowed to drain away or spray around in an uncontrolled
manner can lead to damage and accidents. Also bear in mind that water can drain
away through hidden internal cavities.
2.3 Protection against electric shock
▶ Check the machine’s connecting cables at regular intervals and if they are damaged,
have them replaced by a qualified specialist. Check the extension cords at regular
intervals and replace them if they are damaged.
▶ Do not touch an electric cable damaged while work is in progress. Switch off the main
switch and unplug the supply cord from the electric supply.
▶ Damaged or faulty switches must be replaced at a Hilti service center. Do not use
a machine, power tool or appliance that cannot be switched on and off at the main
switch.
▶ Have the machine, power tool or appliance repaired only by a trained electrical
specialist (Hilti Service) using genuine Hilti spare parts. Failure to observe this point
can put the user at risk.
▶ Connect the machine and its ancillary equipment only to a power source equipped
with an earth/ground conductor and a residual current device (RCD). Check that these
items are in perfect working order before operating the equipment. If a generator is
used, connect it to a grounding/earthing rod driven into the ground.
▶ Make sure that the mains voltage corresponds to the specification given on the type
plate.
▶ Keep electric cables and especially their plug connectors dry. Close power outlets
with the covers provided when not in use.
▶ Use only extension cables of a type approved for the application and with conductors
of adequate cross section. Do not work with rolled-up extension cables. A rolled-up
cable may cause a drop in power and may result in the cable overheating.
▶
Note that components of the power converter can still be under fatally high voltage
for up to 10 minutes after disconnection from the electric supply.
2.4 Safety during operation
▶ Before use, check that the wire saw and its components, the wire and its connectors
as well as the accessories are in good condition and in perfect working order. Make
sure that any damage or malfunctions are rectified in a professional manner before
operation commences.
▶ Take up a position as far as possible away from the danger zone. Position yourself
where you have the cutting process and the danger zone in clear view.
▶ Carry the wireless remote control with you at all times so that you can interrupt the
cutting process immediately if a dangerous situation occurs.
